# How Doth RaidGuild Raid 

RaidGuild is A Decentralized Collective of Mercenaries Ready to Slay Your Web3 Product Demons. Yet, we are even more than that, we are community built around a Moloch DAO, made up of members of many other communities. 

We support the development of open-source tools for the good of the human experience. We beleive in the power of open-source to improve coordination and make a positive impact on the planet. Thus, we ship things that we beleive will help expand the use of open-source technologies, we work to create opportunties for expanding the audeince of P2P technologies such a Blockchains, DAO's, etc. 

We don't just talk about cryptocurrencies and decentralized technologies, we use them, build them, and share them with others everyday. 

### Why Pledge, Where do My Funds Go ? 

The reason that we ask members to pledge is to ensure that all members of the Guild have Skin-in-the-Game. The funds are used for internal RIP's that any member can put up for a vote using the Discord channels and an on-chain vote. All proposal must receive support in the form of rough consensus before being put on-chain, any member will voting shares has the right to block a proposal if they disagree with the proposal or the use of those funds. 

Since RaigGuild is a MolochDAO you are allowed to `RageQuit` your funds at any point in time without the approval of other members. 

### How to Raid with The Guild ? 

There are many ways into the Guild, surely more ways will arrise in the future as we expand. At present these are the easiest routes to become a member: 

**Pledge**: To pledge you must purchase 10 DAO shares by heading to our [Moloch DAO](https://pokemol.com/dao/0xbeb3e32355a933501c247e2dbde6e6ca2489bf3d/) if your proposal is approved you'll be granted the 10 shares you requested and become a full voting member. 

**Apprentice**: To apprentice you must earn your way into the Guild picking up issues in the public channels marked #apprentice. You're contributions will be tracked and recorded until you reach the minimum amount to receive a single share. From there you will be expected to earn your remaining 9 shares through existing raids.
