Dragons are malevolent, untrustworthy, sneaky, egotistical flying rats who kill brave adventuring souls just to feed their insatiable greed.
Seriously though, you can't just RP things that the developers have said aren't going to be in the game.
No one need be threatened. Just because someone has the name dragon in their title dose not make them one.
Really, ..., I strongly think that even at this state the PS setting is big enough for guilds to base on it, instead of randomly pulling stuff from other settings.
Edit: Yes. I do like to be an ass if it comes down to guilds. Ask Petilence about that.
hhmmm should I feel threatened being part of the Dragon Council? ;)
Pterosaurs
The Pterosaurs are reptiles with organs adapted to flight, such as their membranous wings and long tails, which they use as a rudder. The Pterosaurs' dimensions vary from three to six meters, not including their tails, and their wingspan is directly proportionate to their bodies. From the moment they are born, Pterosaurs begin training to carry a person sitting in a saddle buckled between the animal's shoulder blades. Pterosaurs must be at least three years old and fully trained before they can actually carry a person, which makes them precious, coveted, and very expensive to keep. Only extremely wealthy people can afford these lizards, but no matter how wealthy a family is they may only legally own a single Pterosaur. The law forbids owning more than one of these animals in order to avoid dangerously crowding the limited air space.
Megaras
The second flying animal is the Megaras, which is similar to a giant bat. Scientists believe the Crystal has genetically mutated the Megaras, since they reproduce only in Yliakum. These bat-like creatures are not as docile as the Pterosaurs, but they are stronger and more efficient, making them perfect to carry heavy but not too delicate loads, such as food and building materials. As with the Pterosaurs, each mercantile society is allowed to own only one Megaras.
And yeah he can be a pain lol ;)
It'd be better for everyone if they named these creatures they hunt something other than 'dragons'. Why not wild megaras? or black pterosaurs?

Because Dragons are c00L!!1111zomglolo1lo1l
Then you get a bunch of other conflicts, as Pterosaurs are a not at all unusual method of transportation (in the Scheme of Things when you look at the Big Picture). In real life, this would be comparable to a group of people trying to battle/outlaw horses (in say, a kingdom where horses are only for the elite). It just sounds crazy, and there's no way my character for example would take any of it seriously.

GMs are very invisible so that would work much anyhow
I strongly suggest disbanding this guild. I mean, since it's fairly obvious that hunting dragons is out, none of the in-game monsters are really ferocious enough to warrant a whole guild dedicated to their eradication.
You're right, they could RP that they're hunting dragons, but came to the wrong world by accident, or are still searching all the nooks and crannies "just in case".QuoteI strongly suggest disbanding this guild.

I don't think that because hunting dragons won't work in PS's setting that they can't RP that they are hunting dragons.
No need to tell them to disband... if the idea doesn't work out the guild will disband itself through inactivity.I'm just saving their time and my patience.

I prefer trial by fire. You either thrive, or die in a horribly, gruesomely unmentionable sort of way.QuoteI'm just saving their time and my patience.
Some people learn lessons best by being allowed to make mistakes. Live and learn as they say. Not everything can be taught with words alone.

Hold on, "positive criticism"? What's that?QuoteYou either thrive, or die in a horribly, gruesomely unmentionable sort of way.
Preferably at the hands of Dragons?
Anyways I think we've hijacked this thread a bit too much already. Cedermoon I'd recommend you let this thread die.... that is if I'd quit posting... :oops:
Once you've done that you can get a fresh start, adjust your ideas according to some of the positive criticism.
