The Temporary Unification of Guilds Act

[Kuiper7986]

Exordium:
This act will enstate that in any event any alienized personages declare vandetta among Yliakum and its guilds, all leading guild leaders shall be declared to form, \"The Unified Congress of Guilds,\" while the unified guilds itself will be adhered by \"The Yliakum Federation of Guilds.\"

Regulations:

Reg A.) All officially recognized Yliakum guilds must pact to distinguish its enemy.  

*Reg B1.) No guild can declare absolute power or vote without the approved consent of the Unified Congress of Guilds.
*Reg B2.) For any declaration of document or event the Unified Congress of Guilds must vote yay, nay or abstain. To pass, yay count must be at least 60% or higher. (If the nay or abstain votes succeed, the document or event may be again heard for a second time. If abstained again it may be done a third time, forth time, etc...

Reg C.) Singular Guild Succession from \"The Yliakum Federation of Guilds,\" will result as an act of desertion leading to heavily infringed penalties upon the guild.

Just give it up already.

Um...where did this come from? Did you just make it up or has it been already made official between all the guilds, or something the Devs put together? I am just somewhat confused..perhaps some guilds will side with the forces coming to destroy.

umm... wtf?

[Altharion]

he has aired the idea for some time which didnt recieve  good response but it seems he really wants to do this.

[dfryer]

And by what authority is this enacted?

And by what authority is this enacted?

Yeah, why should we listen to you...

I don\'t think he means ALL guilds have to join this, but it is encouraged that you do, in his view. It would add more to the Government that is on the PlaneShift homepage. I\'m not saying that this will be the WHOLE Government, but it could consume a bit of it with Representatives from each guild(Maybe 1 or 2) and they can decide on some actions, etc.  etc. It really would add to the effect of RP, which everyone says they want, but don\'t seem to act upon it when it comes forth.

Also, his last thread, sorta like this, was a peaceful union of all guilds. This has more of a Political vibe to it, it seems. Maybe we could make it where not everyone has to get along, but it could be (again) encouraged or something. If we discussed this a bit, and worked out all of the kinks and flaws, I think this would be an excellent start to a PS Government.

EDIT: We would have to change some things, etc. etc. if I didn\'t mention that. This could become the \"Player\'s Guild Union\" or some sort. I don\'t know really, but something like this would increase RP, instead of just fighting all the time when you are on. It would also make the job of Diplomats more useful, than before.

EDIT2: No, I mean throw out the Unification idea, but transform, or just create, a Governmental organization of some sort, which puts a little balance into PS. Because, if one guild had absolute power, things would be corrupted and just not good for the community, unless everyone (or most) want corruption in something like this. It would also balance out if every guild had 2 Reps, for example-just as long as every guild has the same number, and each vote counts the same, no matter who you are or what guild you come from...Just an idea.

[Sangwa]

Though it\'s impossible to have all guilds united... I don\'t think the Dark Empire would join a union with the Cabal in it... ^^.

How many times have we tried this before?....

[Kuiper7986]

1.) Read carefully the authority in which this act will be enabled will be the Unified Congress of Guilds.

I created this idea in an event that a hostile NPC force tries to take over Yliakum. For example maybe Talad wants the storyline to be that a powerful new NPC race of species hostile to Yliakum wants to take over. So without having to rally up all the guilds (which I\'m assuming are going to be the powerhouse forces) to fight the new hostile race, there would be a unification of some sort to battle against this race. It would be like LOTR.

P.S: No I won\'t give it up already, the game has no real source of Government even though it says there will be government in the game. I know the game is in development and so on and so but the creation of Government doesn\'t require the game itself now, it can be done only with people and we are all people.

What\'s wrong with trying to setup a player ran government? Anyways were all waiting for CB right? Having to setup or run a player ran government is not an easy thing to setup, which I admit is true. But while we\'re waiting for CB and after it comes why don\'t we as members of the Planeshift community try our first attempts of a player ran government instead of saying no, no, no, no, umm stop it, umm no, no. It won\'t get us anywhere but then we wonder why a player-ran government is so hard to setup.

I mean we already have governments within our guilds but it helps to have a large government. Just think how much Planeshift has evolved...
First we had individual players joining the game a long time ago. Then after enough invidividual players joined guilds were starting to be created. Now were having alliances between guilds: Carceri, Citadel of Light, and The Dark Alliance. What\'s next...? After alliances are there going to be sovereign states? After Sovereign States is there going to be a nation...?
