Title: Mirth Guild
Post by: Half_Pint on October 28, 2003, 12:36:29 am
Greetings all!   :D  I bear news regarding Mirth, the guild that seeks to explore the world, have fun, and help out where we can.  If you are planning to be *slightly*-pacifist and good-aligned then Mirth is the guild for you!   8)

We currently have 10 members.  This admittedly rather small number is because of our strict policy - we prefer quality to quantity.  Almost anyone who is not a thief or assassin may join, but if you do not adhere to our rules and beliefs you will not be a member for long.  Over the last few months 11 members have been removed from the guild due to extended inactivity.  

If you would like to join (and remain in,) Mirth, you should be willing to uphold our beliefs.  (No race is lesser than any other, helping people is the best way forward, happiness is the best way to live.)

Mirth is led by a 5-member council which votes on all issues within the guild.  Any member of level 3 or higher may run for a council spot and vote during council elections.  

Mirth Guild currently has two allies.  They are:
1) Defenders - Led by Draklar - A good-aligned guild, and the number 1 choice if you like Mirth but want to do a bit more fighting.
2) Rangers Guild - Led by Seperot, Monketh and Grakrim - A neutral-aligned guild, they are perfect if you like the sneakier side of things but don\'t want to be evil.

Members of the Cabal WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED!  Mirth does not support or condone the Cabal or what it stands for.  

If you would like to join Mirth Guild please PM Davis or I.  Thanks for reading this, and may your PS experience be Mirthful!   :D

Yes it is explicitly mentioned on every Cabali\'s public resume that he is a member of the Cabal;):D.

As I always say you are a bunch of clowns and so you\'ll remain.

as to your allies-

the defenders are idiots.
the rangers are................the less said the better
the GM is no more

Go to hell all of you( and maybe you\'ll meet up with the Clownlord Drachion there :P).
Title:
Post by: Draklar on October 28, 2003, 06:21:24 pm
clowns, eh? Aren\'t Cabals ones that make everyone laugh? :P
uhh... right, Defenders are idiots... *looks at Auran\'s posts* you know... you should be more careful with this word, especially considering stuff that you are writing all the time ;)
And yes, i agree to that Rangers thingy: the less said the better
Telling truth about Rangers would be big advertisement for their guild, and that would be wrong, since this is Mirth thread ;)

Title: Update
Post by: Half_Pint on November 02, 2003, 10:27:39 pm
Mirth is on the verge of having new (bugless and pop-up-less!!!!) forums!  Many thanks to seperot for arranging this!  I\'ll give you the URL when I have it, but all Mirth members will be asked to sign up there.  

The Evanchild affair:  This topic is closed imo, and I have shown my proof to those who I trust to keep its exact form and content quiet.  The rest of you may choose who you believe based on the public evidence, I don\'t really care.  

The return of the Dark Alliance is a welcome addition to the Planeshift world, though they cannot expect Mirth to ally with them.  It is certainly nice to have some true evil-doers around again!  If you wish to help in the fight against these evil guilds, join Mirth!  

Anyway...  Be Mirthful!
Title:
Post by: Half_Pint on November 08, 2003, 11:15:46 pm
I would like to announce that Mirth is now officially \"Guild Friends\" with the Blitzers.  I hope this relationship will evolve into an alliance in the near future!   :)

Post by: Half_Pint on November 16, 2003, 08:40:35 pm
Due to the uncertain state of Defenders, Mirth\'s alliance with them is in question.  However, the alliance was not just with their leader, it was with their members too.  I offer the members of Defenders the full support of Mirth in rebuilding their guild.

Mirth has two new members!  Welcome to Yuhevon and Celleses!   :D

I am going to England for about two weeks, and I am uncertain how often I\'ll have internet access.  Due to this, I am appointing Davis leader of Mirth Guild until my return on January 4th.  I know he will do his best for the guild, and the PS community.  

I\'ll talk to you all soon...  I hope.  :(   I hate flying...   :D

Cya later!

what??? full support in rebuilding Defenders?
hmm... looking at this (http://defenders.board.dk3.com/2/viewtopic.php?t=30) thread I could tell you\'re helping them to fall :rolleyes: (unless advising to shut down guild and join Mirth is a way of help to rebuild... because that\'s only action I\'ve seen from you)
where\'s your loyality and helpfulness? All I see there is betrayal and thinking about yourselfs :rolleyes:
I may left Defenders, but I ensure you that I won\'t let actions like that to be left alone...
Title:
Post by: Davis on December 18, 2003, 10:11:09 pm
The Pint was being pessimistic. And that motion obviously didn\'t go through, so now he\'s supporting them, as he sees that they aren\'t gonna pack up and come here.
But what do you expect us to do? He is offering the support... there isn\'t much to be done, he is expressing that he does want Defenders up and running again. We will support Defenders if they ever need our help.
Title:
Post by: Draklar on December 18, 2003, 10:22:28 pm
lol so he goes to Defenders forums and posts that they should join Mirth? (it wasn\'t first time - I deleted it before)
Not to mention Aineko is doing her best to keep guild alive and he just comes there saying they should just shut it down and join Mirth :P
and he never supported them btw

I think the whole problem is simple misunderstanding; Half-Pint thought that the Defenders were dead since their leader left them, which you, apparently, know isn\'t the case.  I don\'t think its exactly public knowledge, as I certainly didn\'t know that the Defenders are still alive; since, as you said, that buisness was going down in the members-only section of your forum.

So then, at least wait until the ol\' dwarf gets back in town to defend himself, no need to soil the good name of either Mirth or the Defenders.
Title:
Post by: Xordan on December 18, 2003, 10:41:25 pm
I thought Mirth were the good guys..... Asking a guild to completely disband and join up to your own is nearly an act worthy of The Cabal. (But not quite, we wouldn\'t ask. :D )

Edit: Good name.... Mirth..... BWAHAHAHA!! U\'r funny. :D
Title:
Post by: Draklar on December 18, 2003, 10:52:06 pm
uhh... yea Grakrim... Defenders are more active ingame than both Rangers and Mirth :P
it was never said Defenders aren\'t active anymore, look at thebbb - they don\'t have leader, but they\'re still active.
But my point is that if he can\'t help them to rebuild, he could at least stay loyal to them and not help them to fall
And actually some of members were posting from time to time in public part of forums and he knew that...
Furthermore he was pointing it to Defenders, therefore active members.
unless you think someone that is inactive would check forums from time to time :P

He thought the guild was pretty much dead... he had come back after like a week\'s vacation, give the guy a break.

And you say Half-Pint never supported the Defenders? When were the Defenders ever in need of support? What do you think he should have done?

Xordan: Not bothering to read my posts, are you? Anyway, aren\'t you not supposed to post here? If Auran said not to post here, then sucking up to him by insulting us won\'t help much...

Ugh... another argument over a petty issue... Draklar, I hereby agree not to mention your name in Three Word Story again, ok? Will you shut up now? This is so stupid and pointless...

btw you all know Halfie made this post in Defenders forum like 2 weeks ago or more, and that Draklar only turned it into another one of his arguments after he got really pissed at me for using his name in 3 word story, right?
Title:
Post by: Draklar on December 18, 2003, 11:17:43 pm
Actually Defenders are in need of support right now, that\'s why I\'m still going there. Half-Pint can\'t do anything, that\'s ok, but he could at least leave them to rebuild it.
Yea, he knew some of members are still active and he was pointing this to them. Hmm...  I remember Defenders guild had only 4 members for a long time... we weren\'t \"pretty much dead\" tho...
Guild isn\'t dead as long as there are active members in it, but hey! he could make Mirth grow so why not?

and yea, that\'s the reason
but there\'s one small detail... I didn\'t want to post it in the first place because we were friends in former days, but if you decide to annoy me then I have no problems in showing that...
Title:
Post by: Xordan on December 18, 2003, 11:21:49 pm
ahem, I can post where I want..... But Auran was right, this thread was dead without us. :D
Title:
Post by: Davis on December 18, 2003, 11:22:35 pm
wtf he was gone for a week. He knew the guild had members, duh, he just thought they weren\'t going to last without you there.
And he did \"leave them to rebuild it\"... when have you seen him trying to get them to join Mirth within the last month or so since he made that post on the Defenders forum?
Xordan: And you didn\'t start this discussion, how is it dead without the Cabal? The thread stayed alive when you guys weren\'t posting on it, it just wasn\'t on top unless there was something important.
Title:
Post by: Draklar on December 18, 2003, 11:44:49 pm
Davis: He didn\'t stop when I deleted his advertisement, he just did it again. To tell the truth I didn\'t believe it was Halfpint at the beginning (you can see that on the thread). Look at the whole arguing I had to make to stop him doing that.
bah, I showed what I wanted to show and I won\'t argue about that anymore.
Title:
Post by: Davis on December 18, 2003, 11:48:24 pm
Finally...

OK, back to Mirth.
We are currently looking for a replacement for our \"homoerotic pony\" logo, post or message me with ideas.

Title: I've always thought that FACTS are helpful.
Post by: Half_Pint on December 23, 2003, 07:39:06 pm
I am sorry to bring up this semi-dead topic, but I feel that it has unfairly diminished Mirth\'s popularity. I will merely state the facts in the matter of my attempt to recruit Defenders members. Most of them can be easily verified by checking the following link:
http://defenders.board.dk3.com/2/viewtopic.php?t=30

1) Immediately after Draklar left Defenders I PMed him offering any and all help I could give to the remaining Defenders members.  I offered to aid them in rebuilding their guild.

2) I received no reply to this PM, and assumed that Drak was ignoring me as part of his new evil RP.  I therefore decided to make my offer public on the Defenders forums.  There, all the remaining members could see it, and hopefully let me know what was going on.

3) The replies I got over the next 4 days said either that Defenders was dead, or that Defenders was dying.  With Draklar not bothering to talk to me, I thought this information was correct.

4) Seeing that Defenders was dead, I offered all remaining members spots in Mirth.  

5) Draklar announced several days later that the remaining members were in fact discussing their rebuilding on their member forums.  I accepted this and let the topic rest.

As I said, any of these (except for my PM to Drak) can be verified by taking a look at the link.  I have a couple of questions regarding this issue, however:

Why did Zabeal not know of the discussion in the Defenders member forums, or that these forums in fact EXISTED?

Why did Draklar wait 8 days after his last post on the Defenders forum thread before he brought this up on the Planeshift forums?  
 (The answer to this is fairly obvious, in my opinion.  He   posted it the day after I left for England, probably assuming that I would not be available to offer any response.)

It appears, at least to me, that this was an attempt to make me look \"evil\" by ignoring some key facts.  

I just wanted to explain what went on, and ask the sensible members of this community to see the truth in this matter.

My initial offer of support and aid to the surviving Defenders remains, and will remain for as long as there are those among them who wish to rebuild their guild.
Title:
Post by: Draklar on December 23, 2003, 07:54:49 pm
ok ok ok...
1) I already posted that link (look at posts above)
2) What boards did you use? I didn\'t get any PM :/
3) why did you repeat the advertising, knowing it\'ll get deleted? why did you think any Defender will see that if all are inactive?
4) Zabeal thing - It\'s said why didn\'t he know right in next post.
5) Why I posted with delay was said here already - because I didn\'t want to do it considering you as friends.
6) Support not needed anymore.
7) What is my business in making you look \"evil\" ?(

edit: PM thingy: I got one bugged PM on these boards right after leaving Defenders (it was exactly same PM as I got from someone (not Halfpint) earlier) :/

Why did that suddenly change the day after I went on vacation?

6) Support not needed anymore.


That\'s not your call to make.

I\'m not sure why you wouldn\'t have gotten the PM, Drak.  I sent it within 5 minutes of reading that you had joined DE.  (I sent it on the PS boards.)

Anyway, I did not intend in any way to try to undermine a guild that was active.  (as far as I knew.)  I apologize for the attempt, although I believe it was a case of miscommunication.  

I am merely unsure of whether that miscummunication was deliberate or not.

Regardless, I don\'t accept messages through an intermediary who happens to be a member of an evil guild.  Sorry, Drak, but I would like to discuss it with Silenthero myself.  It\'s a matter of principle, not that I doubt what you\'re saying.

I have been extremely busy with school over the past two weeks, and I expect to continue to be just as busy for the rest of the school year.  With all that I have to do, I simply cannot give Mirth Guild the time and attention it deserves.  Therefore, I resign as leader of Mirth.  Davis replaces me, effective immediately.  

I wish I could do a better job as leader, but my current committments in real life don\'t permit it.  I ask that our allies, and everyone else, give Davis as much support as you would me.  

Now that I will not be spending my little time on Planeshift dealing with guild matters, I look forward to getting to know others in the community better.   8)

At least I designated someone to be leader after me...  I wanted to lead Mirth until we were fully organized again, but I couldn\'t.  I am sure that Davis will be capable of restoring Mirth to activity.   8)
