Title: The Rangers Recruiting Thread
Post by: Monketh on February 05, 2004, 11:13:40 pm
(http://img20.photobucket.com/albums/v59/Monketh/logomabob2.jpg) (http://www.seperot.com/rangers)

As the current leader of the Rangers Guild, I wish to forward our standing in the community.  For that is the goal of all guilds, is it not?  

What is the Rangers Guild?
Our guild is a band of rangers, roamers of the wilderness.  The Guild members may specialize in any form of combat, and/or any tradeskill they wish to.  Members may hold any alignment, although the guild itself is officially neutral.  

What do you do?
Our guild is a guild of mild roleplayers.  That is to say, we act \"IC\" within the bounds of the game most of the time.  As there are no clear goals in the world of Planeshift, there are no clear goals in our guild.  We seek to improve the lives of our members and offer them what we may.  Resources will be pooled for those expensive \"group items\" and extravagant lodgings.  Food, shelter, and items at discount will be some of the advantages.

The Rangers Guild was formed in the 9th month of the year 2003 under some rather unusual circumstances.  Originally intended to be a revitalization and remake of the Legendary Warriors guild that was a large part of the early-middle age of Molecular Blue, a coup was staged to push the unpopular and arrogant Leader out of the guild.  Enraged, the ynwwn in question, was removed because his presence would cause bad publicity, and because he had done virtually no work on the new guild.  The three who had performed the overthrow and laid claim to the guild were Seperot, Grakrim, and Monketh.  Any remaining members split into other guilds or came with them.  Seperot was the primary leader at the time.  At one point, Grakrim and Seperot decided that they would like to leave.  I was left to care for the guild.  I would like to thank Lynx for his support during that time.

The Guild will never provoke a war.

Rangers move quickly and silently, and attack without warning. A good Ranger knows how to use cover well (especially natural cover, such as trees and shrubs). All Rangers (No matter what section) should have some basic sneaking skills, along with some kind of wilderness survival skill.

-All guild rules & regulations are geared for roleplayers. :]
-Forums are running and the site is complete

About Alignment:
I\'d like to make it clear that my personal alignment is good-leaning-neutral.
I don\'t feed the beggars, I toss them a half-tria. (or quarter tria)
I don\'t defend people from threats bigger (or stronger) than myself.
I want to help, but not that much. It is not what I am there for.

Now, we accept all alignments, but this is the direction I wish to steer the guild in. We do have a place for those darker shades of grey, if you get what I mean.   ;)  

A continuum :)
[Evil}--------------------{N}----|---------------{Good]

On Sections and Ranks:
There are three sections
-Hunters - Combat
-Druids - Magic
-Coverts - Assasins, theives...

There are of course nine ranks, they are as such:
Straggler
Traveller
Roamer
Tracker
Ranger

Heh, they all followed my example and showed up late.  Later than me actually.  :D

Regarding our current status, we have five active members (including myself), and we\'re going through an activity surge.  Things are getting done.

Post by: DepthBlade on May 15, 2004, 03:10:02 am
Glad to see Rangers still standing on their own two feet! I give respect to any guild that can hold their members active and keep a guild alive for so long, no matter what the allignment!
Title:
Post by: XpYtZ on June 03, 2004, 06:22:44 am

Post by: Tranor on June 07, 2004, 04:39:46 am
Yepp guys... we are always recruiting because we dont have many members and we would like to increase our guilds population... The phrase \"We are still recruitin\" is pprobably the most used throughout this thread because its my pal XpYtZ\'s and the rest of us\' way to bump the thread without just going *bumps thread* lol hope everybody\'s still doin ok, im not around the community much anymore until CB :D ill be around more soon though
Title:
Post by: Tranor on June 07, 2004, 10:08:43 pm

Post by: Monketh on July 04, 2004, 10:47:31 pm
I\'m half-back from being gone.  I have i-net access atleast.  For all of you out there who thought we died of inactivity, we didn\'t!  Not that we\'ve been very active.  But we\'ll always be here, or come back to here eventually.  We\'re still looking for and lacking members.


Alive,
-Monk

Seeing as the member who would be doing (and has done part of) the site reluanch has dissappeared for several weeks, I will be attempting to do it myself.
