But we don\'t want that. That\'s akin to open PK, and that subject has been beaten to death by itself. (Feel free to search around for the various threads.) I don\'t see how two opposing guilds could merge into one at the end of a war. Would not members of the defeated guild refuse to follow the ideals and goals of their enemies? Would they not have the option of leaving, or will they simply become slaves for an indeterminable period of time? Slavery in-game I fear will open doors to a lot of irritation, anger, and exploiting. It\'s entirely possible to have fun RPing such, but not likely to occur for everyone.
No, the very basics of guild wars will most likely remain as they are - guilds will have to agree to them. Of course that\'s where the amazing fun of RP could come in too - enemy guild leaders talk OOC to see if they can create some interesting situation for their members, in which one will sacrifice something, or another will, to set up some drama that can be interesting to RP through. A play with words seems a lot more interesting than code and buttons.
