    It's been a few months since we posted last so it's about time to give an update about what we'll be doing for 2.0. This is all tentative based on information we currently have about the release.

    Currently we are accepting applications. Applications that are approved (meet guidelines, have required information, etc.) will be placed into one of two categories: social player (Friends & Family) or End Gamer. Those who are not quite ready for end game, but show promise (determined by our staff) will be invited to the Impact Gaming Community social linkpearl upon launch. Your application will be posted for our members to read, but there won't be a vote or anything, you'll just be IN the guild and given the rank of "Friends & Family" within IGC. There is upward movement within this social pearl too. Once you are ready for end game, you can request an upgrade and either use your original application to apply to the Neutral Impact Free Company (FC) or you can send us a new one. You will then be trialed as if you applied directly to the FC in the first place. Joining the social will of course allow us to get to know you personally, giving your application a boost compared to someone we don't know who just applies directly to the FC.

    Those players who are placed into the End Game category will have their applications stored until launch. We will be processing these two at a time. That means only two players will be on trial at any given time. Trial periods typically last 3-4 weeks. If you make the cut for our End Game team, you will be invited to the join the Neutral Impact FC and can participate in our end game. All players in the FC will also be invited to the IGC social pearl, of course. The social pearl will have an officer to oversee things and schedule fun events and things of that nature for everyone.

    Essentially this allows us to separate social players who are good and interested in our organization and those who are ready to test their mettle with us. This is our preliminary post about how we will be reorganizing ourselves to involves more players than previously. As such many other details such as looting system and things you might typically want to know are also undergoing revamp. In our time playing the game we've observed that there are many "free agents" out there that may want to get to know us before deciding to apply to us permanently and this system is designed to give those players an opportunity to get to know us and see what we're all about. While there is a separation of guild, there is no separation of any kind on our teamspeak, forums, or any other IGC-related stuff.

    Over the next few months you can look forward to our new recruitment officer, Nakiroth Chanoix, updating y'all on new happenings and changes to the recruitment process. We look forward to reviewing the applications that come in and seeing what the BG, and the FFXIV community in general, have to offer our very tight-knit community (people often say this but they don't mean it--we do). Stay classy BG.

    Happy New Year to all! We'll be accepting applications for both End Game and Social members all throughout this month. Furthermore, IGC has a community meeting on 1/14 on our Teamspeak and those interested in joining FF or any of our chapters are encouraged to come check it out. This will give you a glimpse into how we run our gaming community and is a big benefit for everyone that shows. Plus it's a great application-booster too.

    Additionally I want to extend our TS to any readers interested in our group once beta goes live. Everyone in NI is a Legacy members so we will be there throughout the testing phases to chat live and party up and all that jazz. Until then good luck all and hang in there--FFXIV will be back eventually!

    I figured it was time an update again. Our gaming community is growing quickly this year. With XIV still on hiatus for a little while longer I've focused on expanding our playerbase in Impact Gaming Community. We've added two new guilds, one for The Elder Scrolls: Online (Ancient Impact) and another for ArcheAge which is in the pre-planning stages (deciding guild name, colors, logo work, etc.). Both are actively recruiting like-minded semi-hardcore players. We still have over 15 players on SW:TOR on Prophecy of the Five and run a very successful group on Guild Wars 2's Sea of Sorrows server; Violent Impact. Many recent applicants have joined one or both of these chapters to kill time while waiting for XIV to come back to us. Also we have a group playing Lotr:O made up most of new Ancient Impact guys and the ArcheAge applicants. It's been a good exercise to get to know one another.

    We've also added a new gamer group -- DOTA 2. Gamer Groups aren't quite like our official MMO chapters. They are open to the public, so anyone can join, rather than having to go through an application process and be approved, etc. On top of DOTA 2, we already have in place a League of Legends group, and a firm footing in the Mechwarrior Online beta. So if you're waiting around to get your hands on XIV and want to start networking with us, you can easily do that by joining a gamer group, another official chapter, or simply hopping on TS and getting to know us (yes, people do this and it helps their application in the end).

    To add to the last update, we've upgraded to a new 500 person teamspeak to accomodate the huge influx of players we're going to see this year due to adding new games and groups to the mix. We've also got our eye on Star Citizen for 2014 and the end-of-year combat demos for backers. On the XIV side, we're still accepting applications for our social linkshell and our upcoming free company. We'll be putting FC apps "on hold" and process them once beta phase 3 hits and we'll be able to pseudo-trial you into retail. So if you're looking to get your foot in the door, now's the time. We've never offered so much before at IGC and our organization is only getting bigger every day

    Anyone that has applied to Neutral Impact since the game went offline has now received an email that is inviting them to join us in the upcoming beta phase.

    For everyone else: if you are still interested in us and would like to network first, our TS is open to you. Upon logging in please /poke an admin (gold stars) for access. State you are there for ARR beta test and have been invited by me. You can apply from link in OP or my signature for consideration.

    At this time we request only end game applicants join us. Social pearl applicants that have not been processed will be invited to join us in phases 2 and 3.

    Thanks everyone and enjoy the beta!

    Edit: Please note you MUST have confirmed BETA access in order to join us in the Beta channel. There is NO EXCEPTION TO THIS RULE. Period.

    Neutral Impact is currently accepting applications for our social Linkshell and also our Free Company. Applicants to our social Linkshell receive automatic acceptance if they are a promising player. We define that as someone who will want to pursue end game in the future (once you level up, etc.). In reviewing these applicants, emphasis is placed on your desire to play the game long-term, your end game experience across all MMOs, and your personality. For those applying directly to our End Game group, right now we have over a dozen players interested in our Free Company so please be aware they will have trial priority over anyone applying for our end game branch at this time as applications are processed in the order in which they are received.

    Trial periods will begin shortly after character import in Phase 3 of Beta.

    We are a selective group not are looking to take in more players than we need to. Our current goal for recruitment is to increase our guild size from 18 to about 26-30. If you are interested in our group then put your best foot forward and write us a great app worth reading. Everyone in the group is going to read it and base their vote on what they feel from what you say. As always, we look forward to reading anything sent to us and will be in touch within 48h of app submission. Be aware that this is a semi-hardcore group. That means we excel at what we do but we are working class people and do not have more than a few hours per day to play. We pursue End Game to the fullest in the hours we play (3-5h/night) and we get shit done because we are highly skilled players. We run on a schedule, are highly organized, and have weekly meetings to layout our goals and take feedback from members. If that's what you're looking for, send an application, otherwise check out some of the other great guilds around the community; I'm sure you'll find an appropriate group where you will be happy.

    Thanks for reading!

    We're currently slowing down our recruitment process as we have 16 applicants to put through trials after character import. If you did not apply this round, worry not! Recruitment will reassess our needs near the end of this year and we will likely consider applicants once again. Thanks to all who applied and good luck!

    Neutral Impact is currently on Moogle server for stage 1 of Phase 3.

    Legacy server for launch will be determined in the coming days.

    To emphasize, recruitment for end game is currently closed. Application sent are being held until we have had time to reassess our roster shortly after launch. You will received an initial response however so send away, but don't let us hold you back.

    We've had some time to reassess our roster a bit. We will be capping trial member applicants at 20 and we're at 17 right now. We will accept just 3 more applicants for our Free Company at this time. We will close recruitment at the start of Phase 4 whether we reach this "quota" or not. When applying please give us your best, as that is what we will give you. We can afford to be incredibly picky at this time so give us a reason to read your app and offer you a trial period!

    That said, we have an unlimited number of slots open for our social linkshell. We ask that only players interested in future end game endeavors apply for the linkshell. You can be starting from level 1 and qualify for it, just, and I reiterate, give us your best application possible! There is no voting for this shell, it's just in or out.

    Good luck to those interested!

    Still room for a couple more applications for our Free Company. Recruitment will officially close at the start of Phase 4 for the FC but social applicants will still be accepted.

    Hey Grey, are you guys still accepting people? Was going to start an FC with some friends but it seems like there was some server confusion and people ended up all over the place. Only have like 3 friends on Hyperion

    I regret to inform everyone that applications for end game are still closed. I understand the desire to approach end game with a group that fits your lifestyle and mindset however at this time we are unable to accommodate anymore players. We will continue to accept Friends & Family applications on a somewhat limited basis. Thank you to everyone who has been interested and sorry again for the news.

    Neutral Impact is now accepting applications for 1 melee DPS.

    This is for our fourth coil group which had some dropouts recently. The 5 of the 7 members now in the group have cleared Twintania previously and are looking to continue their farming efforts going forward. The requirements to be apart of the group are as follows:

    - Must join our FC, this is non-negotiable.
    - Must be able to use Teamspeak (at least listening, but speaking preferred).
    - Availability on Mondays at 8:30-11:30pm EST for raiding.
    - Flexible schedule at least 3 weeknights after 8pm EST (in the event additional days are needed for Turn 5 initially).
    - Experience with Turn 5 or have cleared it a huge plus.
    - Minimum ilvl: 80, knowing and playing your class well.
    - Participation in other guild activities (weekly meeting, housing fundraisers, treasure hunting, ex farming 2-3x/week) is a huge plus.

    You can apply here. Please post up if there are any questions or reach me via [email protected]. Additional you can send PM if interested.
