Hiya Kil. Pretty much the rules listed at http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/wiki/Bladesingers/ are about as thorough as necessary. It all more or less boils down to "Don't be a jerk" and what Papi said. BS is mostly just a social shell, but we've been doing a lot of work towards making sure our members have the help they need to get missions done and stuff, mostly through people organizing stuff. We just got a bunch of people halfway to Sky Friday night and I'm looking to maybe do some CoP stuff soon. We have no attendance requirements as such, but if you're involved in an ongoing mission group (CoP for example) then we do like for people to honor those sort of commitments.
Basically what that means is that if I set up a CoP static in the LS (as I'm more or less planning on doing), and we meet on X day at X time, it'd be strongly encouraged to be there, or if something comes up try to let people know in advance or have good reasons. Missing stuff like that is more likely to lose your spot in that sort of static than to result in disciplinary stuff within the shell. We don't break many pearls, we prefer our LS to be as drama free as possible while maintaining a helpful, friendly environment.
