Good luck Karlyle in your new job(s), I hope they work out well and you enjoy them! It was very fun the few time I've RPed with you!

Oh my goodness now I feel like an absolute noob, I just read the start post and thought all the comments were just 'see you later, RL matters more', not noticing the date either.

This is very sad, Karlyle will definitely be missed by the whole community and myself! He was in the Dark Empire with me before he left, he showed me the way to the black flame temple and helped me out with creating and RPing a villain character a few times. He was a definite asset to the Planeshift community! My condolences go out to his family and friends.

So anyways through some suggestions out there kids. Personally I wonder does planeshift have a twitter or a tumblr? I mean it might not be the all mighty answer but its easy and free to do and it puts the game on social sites that are full of people who'd be interested in giving planeshift a go if they found out about it.

All I know is that it has a Facebook page, which is low in likes, and administrators and GMs don't seem to be frequently watching it (many complaints and problems stated on it).

What about guilds where NOBODY is active.  After how many months or years of having nobody logged in should a guild lose its house?

My opinion is that each year there's an auction day in Hydlaa, Gugrontid and Ojaveda where each house gets re-auctioned (rented) for one year. There will be X many houses in each town/city for RP guilds and each guild wishing to gain a house through that will have to apply by a certain date and the GM team will select on RP and activity what guild gains a house.

So if you are leveled higher in mining, harvesting and fishing you will gain higher quality raw materials, Yeah?

The Kore Irka-Kor will be running the July markets in Ojaveda. Come along if you are wanting to shop or sell, it is fully free.

It will on Friday 27th July at 11:00pm GMT (Or Saturday 28th, 9:00am Australian Eastern Standard Time if I have times wrong this is the one I will be going by ) Just set up your stalls in Dsar Akkaio, around Brado's Tavern would be appreciated.


Also notice to all host, if you wont be hosting for a month or for a few months, please notify me or Sarva so we can organise temporary hosts. Thank you.

I honestly don't mind dead guilds, sometimes members wish to return and stay for sometime. For some guilds it's IC for a guild to have 'listed' but 'lost' members in a guild, some guilds are really small and the characters and players enjoy that, they belong to something but don't get involved in all the huge drama that comes with being apart of the larger guilds. If they are using major pieces of the database (like guild houses) then sure I can understand that privilege getting taken from them.

maybe not necessarily the most active - the most senior member still active, or deputy/deputies as may have been agreed by individual guild laws? my guess is, GM intervention is still preferable to an automatic function because succession can be complex - not all guilds have a clearly designated deputy, and the most capable or suitable leader may not be the most active.

Agree. Good point.

Maybe something better for this wish could be more information available for people wishing to create and lead a guild. Just because they founded it doesn't mean they can ditch it with active members, a reasoning for this could be how PlaneShift is trying to maintain and gain player numbers and I can see how players leave when their guild dies. Implementing it into the mechanics I can't see working well without GM intervention anyways.

Vaka! I want your eyelashes immediately! It's not fair that a man should have those!

Dem lashes get dem ladies!
