Do you have a website or a background story?
-
yeah i have a background story and im working on the website
\"Some time just after one of the great guild wars, a solider called Rain appeared from no where. he came to towns asking for young people to train in the arts of war, well that?s what he said he was a tall diaboli or ynnwn we couldn?t tell, we were all nervous because of this but some of the less \"racist\" citizens of out township said to trust him, then at least or children would have a ok life, so we did...
every now and then he would come back and ask for more, and more, and more we should have realised it when he return with a tall evil looking solider, who looked like... my son, I ran at him and yelled \"Smokk its you finally you have returned!\"... But he just laughed coldly and said \"I don?t know who you are old man...
They left and didn?t come back for years after that, until we started hearing story?s or some who call themselves the Sect, the marched across the land until they got here, and that was the last I saw of my son, now I here the guild has shrunken, not much more then mercenaries now but I know they will return... please do not mistake them for evil, they are but ambitious\"
Ragnar Duranus, father of Smokk Duranus
From the book of the peasant

mmm interesting so your more then Mercenaries your to be hired for everything including out of game things? Allignment neutral I take it?
At the beginning you it says something about we will rise they will fall, rain the leader...is that directed towards a certain something or just a quote you like to use?
It looks and sounds very interesting, give it alittle website creation, and some time in the community to mold itself..Good luck!
-
thanks yes alignment neutral, the quote, is from the book of the peasant, something im putting on the site
-
I would suggest getting rid of your Mercenaries. 1) They will bring you no profit as we will most likely get the bussiness, and 2) We eliminate our competition.
-
I would suggest you don\'t listen to peanuts.
Have fun.
Depthblade, enough with the posting, go...do something. 8)
EDIT: Ok.
-
Well jeez Icey why not let them have a chance, we have yet to see any work done by either sides so why not let that happen first before we start picking who is the main market for mercenaries ^^ I will probally use Ice anyways because gotta support my friends but still...
Kiern enough with the peanuts, go eat some >.>
EDIT2: You stop first Kiern :P
EDIT3: You didn\'t stop, trying to trix me :D
-
we will submit to only those that are stronger then us, scince there are no lvls yet, im working outta the game, and you dont seem to have any buisness yet either

Hehe, deja vu...but seriously, the mercenary guild will probably hurt you if you don\'t do anything about it
-
meh we dont want enemys, and our guild is to help people
-
Well I don\'t think you have any other choice in the matter by the sounds of IceFalcon\'s post ^^ Ooh Mercenary war! Who will you guys hire?
No Kiern you stop posting first, peanut ;)
-
heh, im not worried, if you wish to attack us you will lose customers
-
Ah finally a new guild worth commenting! :)
Your guild is very unique and has a strong foundation. All It needs is a good leader..... so ru gonna give up on it after a week (*chough chough* kuiper *chough chough* :P) or ru going to stay true to what you created.
anyways, I give your guild two thumbs up. I just hope you live :D
-
Heh his guild sounds a lot like mine, which has been around for a while (quiet, I just haven\'t put it up on the forums yet). Either way, if said merc war does happen, Ice will have the support of my fighting force.
-
we have no allies yet but even if we lose there will still be a few of us running around, and this guild wont be going any where
-

Name: Smokk Duranas
Age:???
Race:Xacha(mabey)

Well, a player named Smokk has asked me if he could join the guild and so, we welcome our newest fighter.
Name: Smokk Duranas
Age: ???
Race: Xacha(mabye)
Skill: Fighter
Bio: Rain raised Smokk like he would have raised his own son. Teaching him to fight so that Smokk could follow the path of his father, Ragnar Duranus, who is said to have been a great fighter with a strong will...
You should get into that habit of making most things you write look more professional if you hope to lead a guild, I did this at 2 in the morning and it took me very little time.
Just some helpful advice
-
Trianas, this is nothing personal against you, but the Mercenary Guild supplies the Mercenaries.
Just think about this. Obviously, we can do nothing about it until CB, but when CB does come, if people hire you instead of us, we have competition. The members of the Mercenary Guild, (myself included), will not like that money that could have been ours, is yours. We might even get angry, and I\'m sure you won\'t like that. ;)
In a war, you probably will not stand a chance against us. Wait, before you get mad at me, think about it first. Lets just say, every member of both our guilds are of equal strength. TMG is made up of solid Mercenaries, your Guild, however, is made up of merchants and other non-combat groups. You would have to outnumber us 5-1 to be equal. I highly doubt you will outnumber us by even 2-1. Also, I have the support of many other 3rd party individuals, as you have already seen.
A war with you will only bring us profit, but for your sake, I hope you will consider this. I do not wish that your guild be wiped out, merchants help the ecconomy. And I don\'t want to go to war with you.
Again, this is nothing personal...
-
If people really wanted to win a guild war, they would hire you both. There is nothing that says \"only one Mercenary Guild allowed per guild war\". Personally, I wouldn\'t hire people who constantly think they are better then someone when there is no game, especially when they are unable to keep a hold on their current leader. As has been proved time and time again, a lot of things can change before the next release.
Get Smart.
-
The only thing id ever hire ppl for would be to make a sig or somthing (since ill probably be the strongest person in the game :P)
and it would kinda be degrading to have somone do your dirty work
-
Icey: Cool off and let the man have his chance.
-
I think Ice is afraid of some competition;)
But, his guild isnt like yours. I would hire Ice for a murder and I would hire TCC for a new sig or somthing. So please dont consider it a clone or anything.
-
Well, a player named Smokk has asked me if he could join the guild and so, we welcome our newest fighter.
I think he means me waylander... i think it was smoak who asked u?
-
meh dont pay any attention smokk, but welcome
-
well i have been asked to join by smokk, welcome our newest fighter
i think he means me waylander... it may have been Smoak who asked u?
{srry i made a mistake while quoting plz del this post}
-
Icefalcon just on a thing for laughs and giggles....
what happens if they hire you? do yousay no...then you deniy your men if paid work do you accsept to be used by there guild?
take your time :P
-
Hmm thats interesting
I might just hire them and ask them to hire you :P
-
Icefalcon you will not be the only guild to offer their services for money. Get used to it. You\'re not the biggest and you\'re no the baddest despite the fact that you try to make yourself seem that way. Flaming a guild because they happen to be in the same \'genre\' as you will lead to your posts magically disappearing.
Trianas - Good luck with your guild and don\'t worry about the Mercenaries. They like to talk.
-
thank you , i hope to make my guiild bigger and badder then the mercs someday anyway
-
Finnaly some1 else sees it from my POV.
-
Right or wrong in principle, I don\'t see anything much wrong with what Icefalon said in terms of what can be said here - all I see is a \'friendly\' warning against a potential competitor for business. It\'s totally in the context of guild interactions and seems like a pretty much in character thing to do and surely that is different from flaming someone.
If the Mercenaries feel this way about other merc guilds then they should be allowed to say it. They are entitled to try and stamp out the competition where ever they find it if that\'s how they want to play.
Hmm... or did we decide this place was going to remain totally free of guild wars? I can\'t quite recall. If we have a non-combat zone here, move your grudge to the tavern if you want Ice, I\'d be interested to hear your feelings on other guilds with similar professions ;)
Best of luck with The Sect btw! :)
-
ho Goody Goody more cannon fol... errr i mean mercs . :D
Good luck with recuritment :D and have fun .

And you\'re an elf.
Anyways, you\'re right, Icefalcon is a bit way too... sensitive, about this idea of sharing the area of business. But just because he\'s the most visible member of our Guild, it doesn\'t mean that he\'s the only only one. I, for one, think we\'ll have quite a good time gouging our eyes out each other\'s skull while seeking for potential customers.;)
Good luck with your Guild, and let the rest of us know how you\'re doing.
-
its cool guys, i dont want any hostiltys with you, even if it might not seem like it
-
Aendar flaming Icefalcon... The idea of wiping out competition wasn\'t Icefalcon\'s - it was originally mine; a doctrine that was voted on and passed by the members at the time. As for trying to appear the biggest and the baddest - thats what mercenaries do; its called marketing.
And why do you think Icefalcon was flaming? He simply pointed out a particular part of TMG\'s structure that affected Trianas.
As for The Sect; they are essentially the mercenary guild with less content. Still, good luck.
-
guys, simply shut up and respect what the guy is trying to do, Godd luck man look forward to possible meetings between our guilds
-
Why must there be mercenary guilds at all? Their entire reason for existence goes against the spirit of Mirth, as they are devoted singularly to violence and conflict. It saddens me that it is felt that such a guild is neccesary, and I am disappointed that a new guild seeks to expand into this vile business. All the same, I respect that this guild also has peaceful aims. I wish you the very best with those.
It sickens me that the Mercenary Guild would resort to violence in order to increase the number of violent acts they get paid to commit. This cycle of violence must be broken. Please see the insanity of greed-driven violence, lay down your weapons, and allow peace a chance to spread.
OOC: The above was all strictly IC, in case you couldn\'t tell. :D I think the idea of a Mercenary guild eliminating competition makes perfect sense in an RP context. Mercenaries are warriors by profession and by nature, and it is natural that they will seek to intimidate.
Best of luck to The Sect, and may you survive the full fury of the Mercenaries. 8)

They are required to be the final blow in any war waged, alone these groups of men shall turn the tide in military battles. If you think its the way of the Mirth to preventing violence and conflict, it is time my friend to take a new approach into doing it.
Mercenaries are all but neccesary in this world and worlds to come..sometimes battles will not be in your favor and yes sometimes you will have to reach out to others for help and when their is no one else left to help..then you will see why the Mercenaries are so neccesary!

More and less content, they are more than mercs yet their merc section is less developped. They are near exactly My guild(which has been here longer, just would never put an advertissement thread due to certain...things.... :P )
-
mmmm if i had knowen that waylander i would have founded my guild on something more solid =( we are essentilly ,\\merchants , artists, fighters & healers
-
Icefalcon said:Also, I have the support of many other 3rd party individuals, as you have already seen.
Will mercenaries ever help somebody in a fight, even though they are not paid to? Cause Im not sure if I would help somebody who is in trouble, when I know that the person or group would never help me unless I paid them...
Maybe if I was in Mirth ;)
-
lol, don\'t worry Trianas, it is good to have close competition :P
And I have kept my guild on the downlow
-
sweet as then, good luck to you, and i hope we both do well
plus our new guild site
http://www.freewebs.com/the-sect
(http://img71.exs.cx/img71/3990/Banner3.jpg)
-
did you do a premium or is that the free version? If its the free version, I would suggest moving your site quickly after a long enough time they will move in advertisement banners!
-
You should get a forum up http://www.invisionfree.com is pretty good, you can get some skins in their forums.
-
Your site is coming along nicely. I like how each member has a bio
-
Yup, nice-looking site, but one little thing: It\'s \"soldier\", not \"solider\".
-
damn didnt notice that ,but yeah ill put up a forum
-
cool, ill make sure to stop by(or i might forget), and good luck man.
can i see some of the things you do do out of the game? like sigs and stuff, i dont wanna pay for something then not like it.
-
(http://img79.exs.cx/img79/693/siggys.jpg)

-

Sure we will, in certain circumstaces.
-
so will we, but only if they are friends
-
what if say, we hire some of your guys like 10 times, will we get like a free one, or a discount? maybe the more time someone hires someone from your guild, tehy could get discount like so
0-20 jobs = standard
21-50 jobs = 10% off
51-90 jobs = 20% off
following this pattern until its free
or
it can never be free and after X number of jobs it will stay at the same price, 75% off, 50%off etc
this would probably attract more customers and would mean more mullah
-
There has been some talk amongst ourselves of the \"preffered costomer\" idea, pretty much what you described, but nothing has come of it. And I don\'t think anything ever will.
-
Heh I already have something like that in the works :D
-
way, do you have a mercanary guild too? gee i didnt know there was so many! LoL
(<-stupid noob)
-
This is a poor, badly thought out and basically all round terrible guild down to the point that, as is apparent, you can not spell.
The Book Of The Peasant
Page 1
Once a great guild war formed between the greatest of the guilds, this war nearly destoryed all of planeshift, but many great heros arose from this battle like Rain, the founder of The Sect, he was a diaboli, a devil , *cough cough* he didnt seem right, well thats what old Ragnar used to say
\"Some time just after one of the great guild wars, a solider called Rain appeared from no where. he came to towns asking for young people to train in the arts of war, well that?s what he said he was a tall diaboli or ynnwn we couldn?t tell, we were all nervous because of this but some of the less \"racist\" citizens of out township said to trust him, then at least or children would have a ok life, so we did...
every now and then he would come back and ask for more, and more, and more we should have realised it when he return with a tall evil looking solider, who looked like... my son, I ran at him and yelled \"Smokk its you finally you have returned!\"... But he just laughed coldly and said \"I don?t know who you are old man...
They left and didn?t come back for years after that, until we started hearing story?s or some who call themselves the Sect, the marched across the land until they got here, and that was the last I saw of my son, now I here the guild has shrunken, not much more then mercenaries now but I know they will return... please do not mistake them for evil, they are but ambitious\"
Ragnar Duranus, father of Smokk Duranus
Well thats from Ragnars point of view... i hear his son still resides within that guild
----
My point made.
Your guild ranking system is also, rather flawed. You have only two sections, the holy section and the warrior section \'you may chose a path fighter or priest\' What about the mages? What about the merchants? What about the martial artists?. Mages are generally not holy as you seem to believe if you think that they can be put in the holy section. If I am wrong, then there is no way for a mage to gain rank. I also believe that there is no such thing as a bishop or holy boy in Planeshift as there is no Christianity. Holy boy? Why? Why did you call that class holy boy? An aged healer joins your guild for lack of another place to go...
\"Good sir, I am at a loss, I need help delivering my trade and yet receiving money to, hopefully give me a good retirement. Can I be a part of your guild of mercenarys as a healer?\"
\"Suor u is nowww an \'Holy Boy\'\"
\"Oh! The indignity of the thing!\"
\"Wat u tall kin bout mista? Go eal em peeps over theea if tey givin youse moneyes.\"
Your rules are also, flawed. For example... 2: All your friends are in the guild... Do you mean to imply, that your entire population of friends is 3 other people in your guild that you have never seen or talked to in real life? Another example... 5: No jobs is less importanat then another... I do not understand, this rule has broken my mind, thanks. By the way, check the spelling. Not to mention the title of the rules! These are the Rules of Six what? what is going on here? This does not make sense, I know you mean 6 rules but want to say it in a special way, think of a more elaborate name, if, if you can, if you can make that journey to a dictionary. Good luck.
By the way your sigs are very good.
-
dude, caed you need to chillax, i think your PMSing, seriously. all youve done is critisize today, i guess its that time of month again. you could have simply said:
nice job guys but, your spelling is a little off (example goes here) and some of your rules are unclear (example goes here), but other than that, i wish you luck and you guys have really neat sigs!
see how much better that is? people will start to like you! unless you wanna be the guy that points out everyones mistakes and has no friends.
-
Caed: Not every guild has to accept every walk of life. Would you complain about the Arcane Order not accepting warriors? Or a warrior guild not accepting mages?
Spelling is bad yes but that does not make the guild bad as well. A guild isn\'t based off of words it\'s based off of loyalty and hard work, something I think these people have accomplished.
When you create your own guild from scratch keep in mind how much work it is.
-
Ah, Aendar they do accomadate these classes, well they can\'t but they say they can, check back a few pages... I have not only flamed, I have complimented quite a few guilds, including the Arcane, Karakth had asked me if I had wanted to join because of my intrest, Aendar. The Incensio Tenebrae drew my eye, after checking the website, the names of the classes are rather, evil. The champions of Yliakum are looking great and should definately not fade away, again they drew my eye. It was the Mercenary guild however that was particularily good, The \'about\' section on the main website was excellent, the detail throughout was well, great. Not to mention the amount of work put into it by the members.
-
we accomodate all classes those are just the MAIN ones, and i dont have the time to spell properly, and your should mainly just be friends with touse in our guild, thoses rules are just guide lines
Ps. thank you bout the sig thing, im practising to become a GFX designer
-
it takes the same amount of time to spell correctly as it does incorrectly.
(dont post some sarcastic remark about incorrectly having 2 more letters)
