This guild has been ended due to lack of interested parties, not to worry, I will be back with a new guild, but with different concepts and ideas, but I will return, so just hold on. ;)
-
Obviously, you are a neo-Stalinist aligned with the Pope, and have been seen recently at Amy Winehouse's London apartment.
You sound like a person we can work with.
Good write-up, btw. Very informative. Thanks.
-
Sounds like ole Tyndale has some market competition. This will make for interesting RP...
/me watches as Tyndale and Mable both start throwing up "One Time Only!" sale posters around Hydlaa.
Question (yes, Tyndale you can answer this too):
What does all this merchanting mean for Ojaveda? It would be rather cool if either of your guilds started holding "Saturday morning markets" in Ojaveda... it has stalls etc....
Kind of like a flea market, except you don't find Q300/300 Claymore swords in a flea market.
Also The Tefusang Company would be glad to help with security as needed (for a small fee)
-
Joale, your guild sucks because it is a capitalist organisation! Apart from that, your guild is fine, it contains no settings violations, no massacred villages, no concepts like socialism or hinduism, it's just a plain and simple (realistic) guild. Good job.
-
/me tries to figure out what Tyndale means....
Tyndale, isn't your organisation capitalist also?
-
donari, its not capitalist, its a guild built around a market no more no less, pay is a reward 4 hard working members which is revokable but comon with a market guild, the money needs to come back to its members, if i were capitalist my name would be tolian and it would all be mine! :)
PS. The guild isn't formed yet, heck, I just put an idea together and posted it, I need any people interested to tell me, I need to find a Leuitinant Officer, a Master Crafter, and a Master Merchant to help me start the guild, but if you are underqualified to be a "MASTER" anything, just ask me about joining, and I'll speak with you IG

Definite b-slap right there. Whoo! I like this guild's style.
-
You obviously never worked for Tolian ;). Anyways, what's this guild's financial structure? Does Joale own the company?
-
Ahhh ha!!! Thats where your wrong, remember the librarian you only paid 50 tria every 5 year, and it isn't a buisness, a guild built around a market, it is too medival to be called a buisness, all the money id put in a jackpot, and funds come from that, no stock, not a modern "buisness", but yes, he is leader
-
Joale, how long have you been playing?
-
about 7 months with joale, but ive been around planeshift a while
-
Ah, good. So you're not new.
-
No, his stats aren't maxed other then strenths, and he isn't6 that strong as a fighter yet, but I am a good RP'er, and his father ran a small fur stand, so he has experiance in it (and so do I), so I am not running into this thing blind, I know what to expect.
-
As a newb I tried to run a trading guild...
Be vary cautious of those who say they're in but really just want to play "train-and-ditch".

Oooh! How can one detect such charlatans in advance?
-
The charlatans don't know what OOC means ;)
-
Perhaps we should write a guide to eluding them.
*edit*
I have had a chat to Joale IG, and I like his concepts. Unlike either the One or TTC, he actually is striving for a merchant GUILD in a manner of which a fantasy/medieval guild would operate. IMO this idea would be wonderful to see take off.
If you want to get anywhere as a crafter and actually get paid and treated well for your work, join here.
-
Unlike the TTC? Why that?
-
This guild just keeps getting better and better! Now, with new and improved name. If I were TTC I would be mighty scared. There's a new sheriff in town.
-
Please desist from the unecessary provocation of other guilds
-
I am offended now since I do not know what OOC means! The TTC hereby declares war on everyone! ;)
-
I wasn't trying to provoke, it's simple:
There are only two commerce guilds active that I have seen in the game.
TTC and the One.
Neither of them interest me (stocks are too complex for my char, and socialism just doesn't ring my bells) but this guild interests me as it has a decent system, isn't an attempt at complete market-monopoly, is neither capitalist or socialist, and is really medieval and I cannot find a part of it that defies settings in any way.
I'm not putting the other guilds down, I'm saying this guild is frankly a better idea (I can't say a better guild yet, as it doesn't exist), and the others should take notice and adapt.
-
PS isn't medieval. It is far away from that.
-
If it isn't medieval Donari, why are we officially asked to choose names appropriate for a medieval setting??
Ad in other places there are requests to adhere to medieval settings.
There are no guns, no modern inventions, no modern democracy. PS is very much alike to aspects of the medieval era, albeit all united under one governing body.
-
I agree, if there is armour and swords, etc. it is already medivel. most fantasy games are based on medival times with addition of magic, monsters , etc.
-
Really, the TTC and the One can fit into the setting, as experimental ideas (I'm sure such things happened at the time).
One thing to remember is that PS is LOOSELY medieval. It doesn't MATCH medieval history or align to it, but it is set in a similar time area.
Back on topic:
How's the guild development going along Joale?
-
Ps can feature guns ;). However, let's discuss this elsewhere.
-
Its going good, the guild has been created, but only two other members, as well as my self, so if your interested at all, just talk to me in game.
-
I thought you needed 5 members to keep a guild for more than 5 minutes.
-
Ohh, 5 members.... 2 members, 3 alts... lol. WE aren't even going to be opening a market untill we have our grand opening ceremony, and we can't have a grand ceremony untill we get members, but I* am working on it.
-
I am tempted to make an alt just to join your guild for some good RP, but at the moment I need more training on Akaiddo.

typically people don't want alts in their guild.
it leads to spying and masses of inactive members, both of which aren't cool.
but who knows, I'm sure some guilds don't mind

Yes I know that, but looking at this guild it is 1) not likely to enter a guild war, and 2) if I stop using an alt, I usually delete it.
-
Everyone is an alt.
-
Nice point verden.
-
I don't really want alts in the guild unless you get on them everyday, and not once every eclipse.
