Sounds deaf, not. But what would you think of an quild which offers escorts to new players, parnoid guys (Hope there won\'t be too many) and guys that have very valuable goods to transport?
-
Its an ok idea. I say that becuase most of the \"Good\" alligned guilds will be doing that too. Its thier job 8)

:)

Ah - Xordan beat me. ;)
To explain a little more, The BISM is for-hire for anything you can think of as long as it follows our constitution (which will be put up when we officially open upon the release of CB). So it would definately include things such as this.
-
That\'s why BISM & The Mercenary Guild exists :D
-
yea, but thats just one of the services they hire, whats wrong with a guild that specializes in escorts?
-
i just thought about some serious guild.

Why overlap? We have different factions specifically for this reason.
-
same reason wallmart is destroying america, the independant specialist cant thrive

You don\'t think we (and the BISM) are serious?
-
Yes, you have division specialized in this, and that\'s very good. But what can be wrong with a whole guild/corporation that will take care only of escorting etc. ?
And err ... don\'t ask why I\'ve changed my mind about this, but just think a little. It\'s a good idea.
PS - Ah btw, I am making this official. I will fully support this guild with everything it will be necessary. I already talked with the future leader of it, and the ideas will turn in real things very soon :)
-
Also, we, Dream of the Sarukai, have decided to offer our support to the Travel Agency.
Why? First of all because our guild and the Travel Agency don\'t seem to be greatly different in how we\'ll work towards our goals. And our goals don\'t seem to contrast (like the ones between good guilds and red button type guilds ;)). Also, they seem like an interesting guild that has potentially.

There is nothing wrong with it, but this \"guild\" will severly limit their income by specializing in only one area because specializing doesn\'t necessarily mean you are better in this area and are not more likely to be used then some other part of another group that specializes in it.
All I\'m saying is it\'s a lot of hard work for a few small benefits.
-
First of all Travel Agency is a poor name :P.
Next, I can\'t see why they can\'t try. If they won\'t benefit that much that\'s their problem Kiern, then all you have to do is wait for them to cease.
-
As I said I am not saying they should not try, I don\'t really care about that. I just want to know what their point is...it makes absolutely no sense to me and I\'m just looking for a good explanation. (i.e. not why not?)
-
\"this \"guild\" will severly limit their income by specializing in only one area because specializing doesn\'t necessarily mean you are better in this area and are not more likely to be used then some other part of another group that specializes in it.\"
True ... but everyone has the chance making a reality from their dreams.
Err, yes and the name sounds poor, though it\'s temporary :P
... anyway, how\'re ya Kiern? Long time since we\'ve last talked :)
-
Well, me and a friend of mine have been thinking about something like this. We kind of were going to make a site before releasing the guild to the public.
Me and him had a good story, and good ranks. Now my question to you is, if we could team up and build this guild together?
We have already done the guild it is called: Trade of Blades.
Better name (inho) than Travel Agency :P
-
Well done Calx. Well done ...
The name sounds good. Merdarion I think you should team-up and start making your dreams a reality ;)
Also, if you\'ll decide that it won\'t be a guild, and it will be an agency/corporation (which would be wiser) I am offering my full services.
As for the web site, no problem. I have 2 web templates created by me atm, and a site built for the Disciples of the Black Flame, that seems a little inactive :/ ... so if I won\'t speak with Yarulion soon, and if you\'ll like the site, it\'s yours :)
Again, you have my full support.
-
I really want to team up with yo, Calx. And some help with the page would be pretty good (I Don\'t like HTML).
-
Uau, thanks Annah! The only problem ive ever had could be fixed! Thank you for your help and support. Maybe the dream will come true.
@ Merdarion: I absolutely agree with you. The only HTML i know is writing down stuff... The closest i ever got to making a site was using freewebs :D
-
SO, Calx. Could you give me further info \'bout Trade of Blader (Hierachy, Ranks) I heard of some good idea, in which are no leaders but somekind of managers, maybe you also heard of it.
-
These are the Ranks:
9: Great Guardian (Responsible for the welfare of the guild, in charge of diplomatic and social issues. They decide the fate of some one who breaks the code.)
8: Instructor (In charge of the henchmen\' specialization. They will design trials to test the henchmen\' skills.)
7: Alacritous (Henchmen who have specialized in the use of ranged weapons or dexterity based weapons.)
6: Valiant (Henchmen who have specialized in melee fighting.)
5: Gifted (Henchmen who have specialized in one of the magic ways.)
4: Skilled (Henchmen who have specialized in the roguish or bardish arts.)
3: Guardian (Guardians protect the Trade of Blades and all its members and make sure the code is being followed.)
2: Henchman (Full-fledged members who have proven to be resourceful, they have succeeded in one or more missions.)
1: Rookie (Those who have joined the guild recently and have not yet proven themselves.)
The hierarchic order is from Rookie to Great Guardian. Except for Skilled, Gifted, Valiant and Alacritous in which they are all the same \"level\".
-
very well. It seems that you\'ve thought of anything. The instructor seems to be very a good idea. How do you think of The Council shall we join (Maybe wouldn\'t be too bad)?
-
Very nice.
And about the Council, I think it will be a good idea to join. 1st of all because it will handle with trading, guarding, escorting and other things also.
It will have trade routes, that will have to be escorted right? :)
-
Sounds like it could be made to money!
-
About joining The Council is up to you, if you want to join, then we\'ll join. Annah says its a good idea so it probably is :P
And about the trade routes: We dont actualy protect the routes, we just protect the vehicle with the merchandise.
(Its too hard to protect a whole route.)
-
I\'m not sure. If that council would break down the same day it is set up, it would be wasted money (And ?wasted time?). I think we should wait a while
-
Hehe, I think you should go for it. The Council might be a good help for your young guild; there are/will be experienced people in it that can help you out. And it won\'t fall that fast I hope, Annah\'s working hard on it ;).
