they dont need it right now, but in the future guilds will be wiped, like players are now, and you will have to earn your guild, it\'ll cost much more then what i have from migration, but with making an official guild will bring benefits, of course all this money is ingame money only ^^

plenty of plans for how guilds will wortk, im not telling now though :P

Multiply that by a factor of 5 to 10 and you\'ll be around the correct price ;)

Check this thread (http://planeshift.oodlz.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=17974&boardid=13&styleid=3&sid=fe98661e4e2c0197be8a71974c19c3bf) .
Same thing goes for Eternity. There are at least 5 threads about the wipe, no need to post new ones ;)

In short migration means  transfering a Molecular Blue acount to Chrystal Blue.

PS: It is a good thing this guild creation fee, where do I pay? ^^ Please somebody rename this thread to \"Guild creation fee\" :)

glad AO has axsyrus\' migaration $$ :p

It seems migration won\'t be necessary. All you\'ll need to do is create a character with it\'s MB name on your account (since accounts have been kept in the DB) and migration will happen automatically.

Talad\'s probably going to set up and automatic mailler that will alert all emails in the DB of any characters they can migrate (create + get MB moneys).

guild creation fees ???

Hey guys? are you jealous enough to need that kind of action? If newbees wanna create a guild its not a problem! hey tomorrow ill create a guild IRL with 2 or 3 friends, the guild of the crazy cats, whats unrealistic ? I cant declare I created it... I think you guys have strange relationship with newbees...

But if a house is given for the prize I could understand...

Post by: pigottsm on August 03, 2005, 06:39:11 pm
if the guild creation fee gives the guild a house, maybe it\'ll be payable over time, or optional if the guild does not want a house?

like 1000 tria a week or the house get\'s foreclosed

We have enough bills IRL :P

I\'d say there is something to be said of guilds having a creation fee - its that way in Knights Online. It prevents a bazillion one hit wonder guilds cluttering the database, but I think that there should be a reward for having a guild date back to Molecular Blue, or Atomic Blue.  At this point if a guild predates Crystal Blue then it has already proven itself to be a worthy guild as far as activity and the like.  

I could just be saying this because our guild SoR has been around since MB, and I don\'t like the idea of having spent so many many hours of my real life dedicated to a guild that I\'ll suddenly have to \"earn back\".  I\'ve already earned it in my opinion, and so has everyone else who has been around that long leading or co-leading a guild.  One of the main points of having a guild fee is preventative of spamming guilds, but there is no need to make existing established guilds pay to recreate their guild.  Also it means someone could beat you to the money cap and create a guild with your name and there would be nothing you could do about it - your guild would effectively be lost. I call bull$h!t.

Calm down Induane. I\'m sure they will have failsafes in place for those who already have established guilds.
Title:
Post by: Talamir on August 03, 2005, 07:56:38 pm
I\'m in total agreement with Induane..Some of our guilds have worked hard and shouldn\'t have to pay the fee because we are already well established.. unless its for a house...oooohhh..


And in KO you got 500 grand upon getting to lvl 30. Which means any lvl 30 noob made a guild and there were alot of 1 hit wonders...

But I play games to get away from the drudgery of RL :(  If I start having to bust my balls in a game to pay bills and pay out huge sums of cash for things it kind of takes the fun element out of it. I?m happy to work a month or two to get something big in a game but any more than that is just annoying. Plus if you try and get the cash together you get accused of ?power levelling? (strange the only people to fling this term about are the ones that have 15000 tria and full skills Hmmmm).

I don?t like power levelling but if I have to pay out then the RP will go to one side until I get up to a level I can be happy with. Not suffering the old guilds lording it over everyone in some supercilious manner :(

P.s. I can understand not letting every noob make a guild as I saw one called ?The Village People? it made me laugh but not in the sprit of things really but some of us new to PS were making guilds when most of the people on here were just moving on to solid food :P
