Benefits
We as WarBirds come from all walks of life and various socioeconomic statuses, we do not discriminate here in WarBirds.
We often are asked what our purpose for existing is, well, WarBirds exists to make life easier on our members, we help where we can, contribute what we can, and we do so with the utmost respect for our members.
Keeping this in mind we offer various benefits for our members to assist them in both playing and contributing to the guild, below you will find some of these benefits, please understand that WarBirds is more than just a guild with perks, or a group of players, we are a family, a WarBirds nation. We strive to improve our members lives and keep things as fun as possible.
We never back down from a fight, and we never leave our members hanging, we have gone above and beyond in the past, and we will continue to do so for our members in the future.
Some of the things our members have been helped with, either by the guild itself, or directly from other members...
- Housing, and rent. During the economic crisis that happened in the early 2000s we had several members fall on hard times, it didn't take long for some of the officers to get together and help find solutions for them. We never back down from a challenge or a member in need.
- Bills, it happens to all of us, sometimes we run into unexpected bills, from car payments, to broken computers, even tuition. Our members have been helping each other for over a decade.
- School projects, We have a few teachers and professors in our ranks, even some college counselors and administrators, WarBirds has always strived to do what we can to help our members succeed outside of the gaming community. We are proud of the officers and members who have helped our younger and a few of our non traditional students earn a High School Diploma, GED, and a few degrees.
While we are proud of the things our members have done to help each other, we are a family, we all contribute what we can, and no member is under any obligation to assist another, what we have seen over the years is not a contractual agreement to help, or a guilt-trip gone wild. We have seen true friendship and compassion from our members.
On Behalf of the WarBirds leadership council, thank you to all WarBirds Who continue to go above and beyond to help each other.
