Hello Yliakum
Many of you do not know us, but some of you do remember, and often a few people stumble across our guild thread, generally buried by the newer, and i must say much more active (in Terms of Planeshift) guilds.
I have taken this time to announce our second year anniversary!
Last year many of you may recall we released (a not-so great) game to give a taste of the way we preserve magic universally. Well this year we tried /are trying to do the same, many of you mac users may know the person \"Cha0s\" who is our head programmer on the project, and it can be monitored for news flashs at www.plone.arcane-order.com, if that site doesn\'t work, just wait lol, its my server so it may be a a bit sluggish.
Enough about side projects and more about AO!
We love magic, what can i say, that is what we\'re all about. We roleplay it, we program it, we write it. If you like magic, you\'ll like us, likewise if you hate magic, you\'ll likely hate us.
Our hierarchy consist of
Councilors
|
Nightblades SpellSwords Loremasters
|
Adepts
|
Apprentices
well if your reading this your likely not in the Order, so i\'ll start with the lowers branches description first.
Apprentice
As an apprentice you have been recognized as one who has potential in the Arcane Arts by one of the three branches, or even by a councilor. Your life will be like that of many other fantasy world where you work hard to prove your readiness to be a true member of the order, you will work primarily with your master unless she/he sends you off to another for a temporary lesson or two. Our given tasks can be anything from helping with AO\'s many , many projects to going in game and gather goods(unlikely though).
Adept
You are a true member of the order, you are no longer guided by hand, and are allowed independent study, however if you wish to advance you must not lose activity, to be a true branch member (SS, NB, LM) takes work, but the rewards are worth it.
and the rest?
what do you care, your prolly not looking for a guild, and if your are actually interested in the rest, you can check out our web site :]
Recent Developments
It would be shamefull to not tell you of AO\'s latest step. We are no longer a strictly PS Guild, we now have sept into NWN , and are designing our own server based on WoTC\'s Eberron Setting. We take members from anywhere now, PS activity isn\'t a must, we are a group of friends, a family now more so than ever before as long as your around, your are a part of AO.
Contacting us
If you are unsure about our operatives, please come by our website, www.arcane-order.com , and even our IRC channel #arcaneorder@quakenet . we give everyone a warm welcome.

Indeed another year has gone by, another year in which we\'ve welcomed new members and bid a sad farewell to a few old ones.
It\'s been a fun year.
Yeah we\'re working on the (MUCH BETTER) game this year, taking our time to give you quality this time (last year we pushed too hard to get it done in time).
So yeah, we\'re two years old! Ale all around!

Hail! :D
Glad to see you\'re still around.

as always

Arcane Order is definitely one of the best PlaneShift guilds, and I\'m an all fighter character :P . And the AO website is one of the most professional of all the guilds as well :D .

Oh, 23. Sorry, your opinion doesn\'t matter. :P (Before anyone flames me for being arrogant, that was a joke.)
OOC: Yes, the AO is definitely a good guild. A little lacking in certain areas, for sure, but then, what guild isn\'t? Good job sticking around guys. Keep up the good work, and try and be a bit more active for crying out loud!
IC: You arrogant fools will never understand what it means to be true masters of the arcane. (blah blah blah, yada yada yada :P )

Congratulations for this role moldel of guilds as they spell themselves into a third year. Yes I like magic and I might have joined (if I was able to) if it was not for other things that happened that directed me towards another direction. Still I consider this one of the best guilds and hope it will be around far longer than any one of its members.
Cheers to the Arcane-Order!

Heh, thank you Everyone, glad to know people still know us.

And how could we forget? ;)
Many happy returns, Arcane-Order, good to still have you around after all this time!

Party 8)
* Brings the big wagon of wine and cakes *
* gives a glass of (strangely green) wine to Phinehas *

*takes glass of strangely green wine, sniffs it, looks at it suspiciously, shrugs, drinks it, and passes out*
(Don\'tcha just love parties?)
-
*summons the ugly wenchs (or is it wenches? ... eh)*
*points to Phiny*
\"be gentle, he\'s new a this sorta thing\"
*winks*
*the wench(e)s run after phinny\'s \'out-cold\' body*
*starts playing Sublime\'s \"Date rape\" song*
-
*wakes up*
*nods at the wench, who then bursts into flames and run screaming in horribly agony*
*goes looking for Elscouta*
OOC: Sorry Druke, you over-did it. No way was I going along with that. :P
-
ooc: oh i knew you\'d do something like that ;)
-
*wanders in and nods to several people before taking some of the food (recently materialized) and disappearing back into his study*
OOC: I\'m coding, I\'m coding! We should have something done soon, I hope. Some people need to work on graphics and plot, though *cough* .

:P Heeh, although someone can be a faithful and longtime (in honesty I\'m not a long time player but I\'ve played very actively for a few weeks) player of PlaneShift and use the forums often but not have many posts. I have a good sense of humor, and know as you said that you were making a joke. But the sad part is that many people on these forums really have that atittude and show it in their actions. That\'s one of the largest limiting factors for these webboards. Although when you\'re acyually in the game, people aren\'t so rude...
And besides, what\'s worth more, five words of wisdom, or one hundred wasted ones?
P.s. At least you checked the number of posts I had, in stead of flat out ignoring me :P !

Oh good. For a second there I was almost afraid I might be getting unpredictable! 8o :P
@Rumley Benson: Like I said, it was a joke. I have this gut reaction whenever anyone complements the AO, unless I\'m in an AO-complementing mood. Otherwise, watch out! :D
