Rules & How It Works

The Guild Bank

CollegeFund is a karma-based guild bank for WoW Classic Hardcore. Members earn karma by depositing items and spend karma to withdraw them. The rarer the item, the more karma it's worth.

Karma

Karma is tied to your Discord account, not your character. If your character dies, your karma stays.

Current karma = total earned − total spent. This is what you can spend on withdrawals.

Lifetime karma = total ever earned. This determines which tiers you can access — it never goes down.

Item Tiers

Items are automatically categorized by their WoW quality. Officers can override the tier for specific items.

Tier WoW Quality Deposit Karma Withdraw Cost Required Lifetime Karma
Free Poor / Common +1 free
Standard Uncommon (green) +10 -5
Valuable Rare (blue) +2500 -2000 500
Premium Epic / Legendary +10000 -10000 5,000

How Deposits Work

Mail items to the guild bank character in-game. The addon tracks what was received and syncs it automatically. New items are auto-categorized by their WoW quality via Wowhead. You earn karma based on the item's tier.

How Withdrawals Work

Ask an officer in Discord to withdraw an item. Two checks must pass:

  1. Lifetime gate — your lifetime karma must meet the tier's minimum
  2. Balance check — you need enough current karma to cover the withdrawal cost

Free-tier items can always be withdrawn at no cost.
