Worst turn in PS??

I believe the minimum is still 5, although the Guilds page on the PS website still says 10.

We very often have only 4 members which are our core gamers. We are not closed to more than that, just very particular about who we bring in.  You speak of organization of the guild, and order.. just having to pick up random people to fill in spots to make the required 10 member min is the cause for many a downfall of a guild.

In a guild, personalities have to mesh,  ideals and beliefs need to be in sync other wise you will have broken guilds all over the place.

Velaria,  these are the very reasons that the current rules were instated.  Although the \"official\" rules state a minimum guild size of 10, that had never been enforced.  The minimum is now 5 members, and it is enforced by the game code.  Hopefully you can find a fifth who shares your values.

With PlaneShift currently in alpha (or pre-alpha, depending on who you ask) stage, it is almost guaranteed that the current rules will be revised, if not totally thrown out and rewritten, several more times before the game is \"finished\".


Karyuu--I have determined that you must actually live within the PlaneShift forums.  Is there a single thread on this site that you haven\'t responded to?

Nice to know that another drastic change hasn\'t occured without warning ;) I think the point stands, however, that in reality ~4 people alone can work as a group without creating a guild, and keep in touch with each other on various mediums both within the client, and outside of it. Dictionary.com defines \"guild\" as: an association of persons of the same trade or pursuits, formed to protect mutual interests and maintain standards. It\'s a very official sort of organization, and while requiring a minimum of ten members is iffy for a pre-alpha, five is not outrageous by any means.

Plenty, and I plan on keeping it that way ;)
