Travel Agency?
« on: November 09, 2004, 07:27:10 pm »
Sounds deaf, not. But what would you think of an quild which offers escorts to new players, parnoid guys (Hope there won\'t be too many) and guys that have very valuable goods to transport?

I want to rise higher, rise up to the heavens, but sink, just sink down deeper and deeper into nothing,

I want to be an angel, a chosen, a devil, but I am just a creature that ever wants what it wont get.

Ah - Xordan beat me. ;)

To explain a little more, The BISM is for-hire for anything you can think of as long as it follows our constitution (which will be put up when we officially open upon the release of CB).  So it would definately include things such as this.

Why overlap?  We have different factions specifically for this reason.

You don\'t think we (and the BISM) are serious?

Yes, you have division specialized in this, and that\'s very good. But what can be wrong with a whole guild/corporation that will take care only  of escorting etc. ?
 And err ... don\'t ask why I\'ve changed my mind about this, but just think a little. It\'s a good idea.

 PS - Ah btw, I am making this official. I will fully support this guild with everything it will be necessary. I already talked with the future leader of it, and the ideas will turn in real things very soon :)

Also, we, Dream of the Sarukai, have decided to offer our support to the Travel Agency.  
Why? First of all because our guild and the Travel Agency don\'t seem to be greatly different in how we\'ll work towards our goals.  And our goals don\'t seem to contrast (like the ones between good guilds and red button type guilds ;)). Also, they seem like an interesting guild that has potentially.
The end doesn\'t justify the means :)

There is nothing wrong with it, but this \"guild\" will severly limit their income by specializing in only one area because specializing doesn\'t necessarily mean you are better in this area and are not more likely to be used then some other part of another group that specializes in it.

All I\'m saying is it\'s a lot of hard work for a few small benefits.

First of all Travel Agency is a poor name :P.
Next, I can\'t see why they can\'t try. If they won\'t benefit that much that\'s their problem Kiern, then all you have to do is wait for them to cease.
Disclaimer: This is my opinion and I can be reasoned with. I'm probably right, though.

As I said I am not saying they should not try, I don\'t really care about that.  I just want to know what their point is...it makes absolutely no sense to me and I\'m just looking for a good explanation. (i.e. not why not?)
