Post by: Kiern on August 17, 2003, 06:13:05 am: Why Gnome merchants if there are no gnomes?

Seems weird to me.....
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on August 17, 2003, 06:27:39 am: not all gnomes. you obviously misread the disclamer thing.

i think the name dnotes its seriosness though. we are a serious guild and plan on being very large.

Post by: Caldazar on August 17, 2003, 02:39:09 pm: Awesome homepage Evanchild! Looks neat. I can assure you that SH will contact you if the need any secure trading. :)
Title:
Post by: Monketh on August 17, 2003, 03:28:03 pm: Cool flash :)
I\'d advise you get a forum though, I didn\'t see a link to one.
Title:
Post by: Dameon on August 17, 2003, 04:57:14 pm: Looks like all of PS is going to be trading through the gnomes.
Title:
Post by: Monketh on August 17, 2003, 05:16:58 pm: \"I\'ll give you two gnomes for that ale.\"
\"No, I want at least three gnomes for it.\"
\"That\'s price gouging, I\'m not paying.\"
\"Your problem.\"
:P
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on August 17, 2003, 07:52:20 pm: yea i need some forums and an irc server. i also need some help with getting the reguest thing to be this:
a form that has the title
reguest: (put thing here)
and offer: (put amount here)
and guild:guild and password:password. each guild will have it\'s own password so we don\'t get people submiting orders for guilds asa joke. i will give passwords if we get that working. but the hard part is that it needs to send the completed form as an e-mail to myself and a few other people in the guild so we can start the order right away.

the password thing will be a lot harder to setup on freewebs but i think it can be done.

Post by: Caldazar on August 18, 2003, 10:35:11 am: Well, theres a thing called proboards.com, which I used a while ago... not sure if its still free/good though.

I am a serious guild too, that plans on being very very annoing. We will achieve this goal through mind alterations and painfull round the clock probings. Who wants to join? I still have room in the glove compartment.

Post by: Wolfmane on September 03, 2003, 09:33:39 am: So Evan, two gnome merchants now or more already?

I really like the idea of a Merchant guild and will do whatever I can to help you out, we need something like this badly in PS. I would like to add your profile to our guild survey but we have a policy that a guild must have at least 6 members before we include it, so get your *ss in gear and get some merchant to join in! :D
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on September 04, 2003, 09:34:11 pm: well i guess nobody understand by joining they get access to many items and knowleges of a guild the support of a guild and the protection of a guild.
Title:
Post by: Xalthar on September 04, 2003, 09:45:40 pm: I like the idea of your merchant\'s guild very much, and would also like to see more members in your guild ;)

So all you greedy merchant wannabe\'s out there, join up with the Gnome merchant\'s guild!

(just thought I\'d help you advertise Evan ;))

As long as your guild is promising (which it is IMO) you\'re sure to get more members, sooner or later.. And as to getting organized, I think you are as organized as possibly able at this early stage of the game...
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on September 04, 2003, 10:19:21 pm: my teacher at school must be annah. cause he said im gonna screw up somewhere never get a job and die poor and lonely... obviosly an incouraging word their.

Post by: Xalthar on September 04, 2003, 10:22:03 pm: wow.... that\'s a cruel teacher you\'ve got there :P
Title:
Post by: Monketh on September 04, 2003, 10:26:17 pm: You must be a less than sucessful student. I\'ve got all honors courses. I suppose that maybe if you work harder...
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on September 05, 2003, 01:27:32 am: hes my honors writing teacher...

anyways i would like to welcome our newest member Roren

Title:
Post by: Xalthar on September 05, 2003, 02:55:59 pm: yeah, your guild is growing :) grats ;)
Title:
Post by: Monketh on September 05, 2003, 09:21:35 pm: I\'ve found most writing teachers are like that unfortunately. Mine is a bit too liberal in my opinion...
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on September 06, 2003, 04:51:59 am: hes an 8th grade advanced \"creative\" writing... i feel to use creative language at him but not on my paper...i have an A+ and in american history i ewas talking to some kid and he brought me up and we debated on why it was wrong or right. i eventually owned him and he was like yup... that democracy you get a

Post by: Isgrimnur on September 07, 2003, 11:26:43 pm: Looking at that I\'d probably consider phoning the men in the white suits to come and take him away and give him a nice padded room somewhere! :D

PS Keep up the good work and I hope you get more new members

Post by: Tranor on September 23, 2003, 01:33:48 am: i know you said that u didnt make a new post everytime sumthin happend in ur guild on SH Forum thread but i think its about time you get a new thread!

This one is so full of junk about teachers, etc. that if i was a newb wanting to join ur guild i wud get bored at reading this thread and move on to another guild that had a clean thread! just a thought though!
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on September 23, 2003, 03:49:20 am: i\'ll sum it all up in this post then and put a link on the origional post to this exact one.

We need members. We stand for good yada yada we don\'t blow people up for fun... most of the time and we keep peace among trade partners.

click the sig to go to the website. it will be updated when i get time. im feeling sick today so it may be a week or so. just beer with me and a donation of pepto might help :)

*YAWNS* I should go to sleep now.. What time is it? Oh, 1:41... nvm got a few hours until daylight.
Title:
Post by: Auran on October 06, 2003, 12:17:59 pm: Maybe you should change your pitch. \"The gnome wan\'t you\" slogan has a hint of perversion in it:D. But hey its your choice. If you do \'want\' ppl you should post a pics of your members. Not everyone enjoys the thought of making out with short, wrinkly gnomes but to each his own perversion.
:D:D.

Have you thought of contacting Dorbian. He was thinking along the same lines sometime back.
(Just a suggestion).
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on October 06, 2003, 09:59:23 pm: what about dorbian now?

and that is not a sexual inuindo. just to clear that up. it was meant to be more of the uncle sam recruiting posters.
Title:
Post by: shadowmancer on October 07, 2003, 04:11:49 am: omg its n33d not want...
I don\'t get the JUU part though. JUU and you are more different then need and n33d. The gnome need juu... What???

Title:
Post by: Waylander on October 14, 2003, 01:36:35 am: I just wanna say that if this ends up being the only merchant guild then anybody in it is gonna be very very rich :P, SO JOIN. personaly I dont care much about tria. I just like the kill
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on October 14, 2003, 01:56:21 am: we have a section for military, that needs governing. no matter what your faction you share the same riches among rank level. the higher the more access you have. and to figure out we make there is a 15% average set for simple markup and income. so if what you want takes 500 wood and 30 steel it will cost the market calue of those items*.15=cost. say wood is 1/1 and steel is 8/1 so the price would be figured by using this:
(500+240).15=111+740
so cost= 851(cu) or goods that amount to that amount. cost negotiable
Title:
Post by: Monketh on October 14, 2003, 02:40:23 am: This is going to sound mean.

I think people may not be joing due to the name of your guild. The word \"Gnome\" being the key factor. Gnomes don\'t have anything to do with PS. Also, Gnomes aren\'t very masculine. The problem being that males (90% of the PS community) may not join due to that. I\'m not saying you\'re gay/wimpy, but you should consider this.

Also, other trading guilds just might show up you know.

Edit:Yeah, but you live in Lalaland. *points at location*
Title:
Post by: Davis on October 14, 2003, 03:08:06 am: Gnomes are cool! X(
However, you\'re right about the other trading guilds thing.
Title:
Post by: shadowmancer on October 14, 2003, 04:13:35 am: Gnomes are sucky little wannabee dwarves. And what does a trading guild do?
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on October 14, 2003, 04:18:03 am: well considering one fo the 2 members is a girl...

i am going to change the name. or merge with mirth.
Title:
Post by: shadowmancer on October 14, 2003, 04:23:21 am: Merge with Mirth. A 3-member guild doesn\'t do anyone any good.
And you seem to have some support for gnomes. I was feeling really nasty at the moment, so I took it out on you.
I think that your style of typing makes you look unprofessional, and that\'s why people don\'t join. Maybe you could have someone else do the recruiting, or just type differently... ?
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on October 14, 2003, 04:31:13 am: ok. im 14. i go to school daily. i make $200/month at the highest

im a professional guild leader all right. i try hard and if people don\'t think its good enought screw them. i have the resources of a dead cow in a cleckner white room void thing were spoken words become matter. don\'t say tell me im nto professional. i know that. i don\'t want to look professional and get all your hopes up for something i can\'t be. i can be better than you expect considering how unprofessional you make me look. from that point of view i am god.
Title:
Post by: shadowmancer on October 14, 2003, 04:36:52 am: That doesn\'t make me any less right.
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on October 14, 2003, 04:48:44 am: i wasn\'t trying to prove you wrong. i was basically saying if you don\'t liek the way i type to bad. you can read it.
and if you don\'t like the way i run things find a better way then suggest that. im tired of people saying your guild sucks. then i ask why and they say gnomes. just gnomes.

wtf. how does that pretain to my guild sucking. i don\'t want to change the name. but it might come to that. I don\'t want to merge with anyone but i might come tot that. the reason i would merge would to secure the members a spot ina trade section of a good guild. i don\'t just want to leave the few people i have cold and dry. thats not very nice.
Title:
Post by: shadowmancer on October 14, 2003, 04:57:12 am: Really? Someone else said your guild sucks? I thought it was just me, and maybe some stupid Cabal people like Auran. And I say everything sucks. And you never asked me why. So not only am I right, but you are wrong.
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on October 14, 2003, 09:29:22 pm: what is the method to your madness
You just expect me to guess
speaking in verse
Its nto some sort of a curse
Title:
Post by: Davis on October 14, 2003, 10:43:39 pm: ???
Anyway, don\'t change the name. Gnomes are cool!
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on October 14, 2003, 11:27:34 pm: well if nobody joins that seems to be the major problem.
Title:
Post by: Davis on October 15, 2003, 01:10:29 am: I don\'t think that has to do with the name.
Well, maybe it does, because a new player might think \"Oh, I can\'t join, I\'m not a gnome\", without knowing that gnomes don\'t exist.
Still, I like the name, and if you have change it, then, well, I wouldn\'t like that. But whatever you think is best for you.
Title:
Post by: Evanchild on October 15, 2003, 04:12:13 am: well its never going to be a name like dreadgillliouhousen lords of shizzinquipenturd. i hate gay guilds liek that. probibly something that is not serious lessly pretaining to gnomes.
Title:

allighnment: short name, good long name bad.
