Looking for new guild
« on: December 31, 2004, 07:00:24 pm »
Intelligent new player looking for guild. Has 5 months experience of MB and well over 2 years in MMORPG\'s including Runescape, Runescape 2, Utopia, and other various Medieval set games. 2 years of text-based RP background and 5 years experience in console games. Has great ideas and is about to complete downloading CB (4.5 kbps download speed; took me all night, bloody dreadful). Flexible and willing to fill most any position suggested (hasn\'t yet created character). USA, East Coast Time Zone (GMT - 05:00) Has AIM and MSN Messangers and email. Lots of experience with HTML and is willing to help find webspace and run a site. Post here or send me an email at Baddboy317@aol.com . (Hope you don\'t discount me for using this cheesy Want-Ad format. Dont worry, I can speak in complete sentences ;-) Feel free to ask any questions and remember that I have yet to create a character so you may be able to mold me in your image :-p As a side note I\'m excellent at creating codes and ciphers to keep information secure.)

EDIT: I posted the name of a game that I have experience with and it was censored, not because it was a swear or profane or even contains objectionable material, but because it\'s competition to Planeshift and alot of the players here dislike it. In private I would be more than happy to tell you what exactly the game is, where there is no one to stop me from stating what in my opinion, was a good game.

After a 14+ hour download at about 4 kbps, I finally downloaded and installed CB. Now if I could only figure out how to work the darn setup and character creation!

Actually, lack of character may limit the number of guilds available at this point, or at least impede your choice.

The Character and Playing Style of a player are the primary factors of guild choice and whether or not one will \'fit\' in with the rest of the guild.

Be sure to check out guilds sites (like ours) to figure out who you want to join and who you want to be.

The game is runesc@pe.  
It is censored not because it is competition, but because there used to be rampant arguments about it.  Flame wars are not fun.  The devs and mods got tired of cleaning it up.
Plus, it isn\'t really competition because it isn\'t really \"Free\", it\'s \"FREE!!!\" with an asterisk....  :(
It is also censored because it is widely hated & despised by this community.  I actually came from there,  and to tell you the truth it was OK, but I don\'t want to hear about it.  It isn\'t the game, it\'s some of the players there that are the problem.  Sometimes some of the really bad stuff will come here from over there.  

The mods and devs will not seek revenge if you say many of it\'s variants (runesc@pe, rune scape, runescap3).  Though sometimes the mere mention of it can start an argument.

The key to manipulative bargaining is to ask for something twice as big as what you want, then smile and nod when you are talked down to your original wish. You are still young, my apprentice, and have much to learn in the ways of the force. -UtM

If you\'re refering to the alignment of your guild, I dont have a preference. Good or Evil, its fine with me, they both have good points in them. And if your refering to a personal alignment in the game, I\'m not sure, I have\'nt finished the download (should be another 30 minutes).
After a 14+ hour download at about 4 kbps, I finally downloaded and installed CB. Now if I could only figure out how to work the darn setup and character creation!

Thanks Monketh, I\'ll check out your site. If anyone doesn\'t want to explain your guild to me, you can leave your URL and I\'ll check it out.

Well, I didnt mean it that way. I personally am more evily inclined, but if 2 guilds came to me; a poor quality evil one or a excellent quality good one, even though I\'m evily inclined, I\'d pick the good one if it was that much better. I can do neutral, too.

Ok, so I obviously screwed up more than once, but I think I found a good offer with the Sentinels of Ragnarok. I havent officially said \"yes\" so if you think I\'m making a horrible mistake, please tell me now or forever hold your peace...

I think someone is terribly missing the point of guilds... again.
As the welcome message in CB says: Join guild that suits your character best.

Visit Kada\'s and check out the guilds the has there.
Also, just because you are evil enclined does not mean that the character is going to be evil (could be fighting your nature) so I would suggest hammering out some more of your character dynamics before looking to hard for a guild.
If you are having trouble working up a character history try on these questions (on just pick any answer, hell use a coin or a die for the answers if you like)
A: Would I kill an inocent, sentient being?
B: Do I have parents or was I an orphan?
C: Did I have (or do I have) siblings?
{if yes to C} D: Did I injure any of them serriously in anger?
D: What game did I play the most as a child? (IE Marbles, Cards, The Hunt...)
Those are the first few questions I always ask myself, it just gets the charcter started.
