Rangers of Yliakum - Recruiting - See recruitment details
« on: September 03, 2005, 08:59:54 pm »
Ok, I am not yet going to make the history and all that stuff. I will name more like my goals and ranks and maybe a bit of the structure, as well as the requirements I have set for my guild membership.

Goal: I aim for my guild\'s goal to be the helping of others and being kind, as well as helping noobs train and such with the use of groups. We will teach them to fight, and the stronger ones at first might even take the hits of stronger monsters while the noobs hack away safely. I know this plan isn\'t exactly foolproof, but nothing is, because there is always some fool who will mess it up for everyone. I also want my guild to be a giving guild and help out people, especially within it\'s own ranks. I will probably expand on my goals in the future.

Ranks:
1- Beginner
2- Ranger Student
3- Ranger Trainee
4- Ranger Apprentice
5- Ranger
6- Intermediate Ranger
7- Expert Ranger
8- Accomplished Ranger
9- Master Ranger

The highest rank attainable will be \'Accomplished Ranger\'. The structure of promotion will be based mainly on accomplishment and recommendation. If someone does something truly nice, and doesn\'t seem to be doing it just to get promoted, then I will promoted them, or put them on their way to promotion. I will use the point system to keep track of their accomplishments and they will restart at promotion.

Recruitment Requirements:
I don\'t ask for much. I ask that my members be polite, kind, and helpful to others. If someone randomly gets mad at you or gets mad at you for some reason, I expect you to try and solve the problem calmly, whether they are calm or not. You must stay calm and kind and admit to your mistakes. If I recieve word of someone doing something wrong, they will immediately be demoted based on the complaint. I have a good enough ability to tell if something is a false accusation or if it is being dramaticized. I am currently recruiting non-noobs to be my helpers for when I start to actually get members. All members must promise to the terms of membership, and uphold that promise as best they can.

Rank Structure:
The higher the rank, the more influence. If an Accomplished Ranger suggests something to me, I will think about it carefully. If a Beginner suggests something I will give them an answer right then and there most likely. This is all based on the relativity of the question to guild matters. Higher ranking members also may have more responsibility. It is a bit flexible at the moment, seeing as it is a very new guild.


Don\'t start going off about my faults, I know many of them quite well, with all the stuff not being there.... Just hold off til I actually get my guild set up, then start arguing over it. I would rather like to settle into a house before I start to fix it up and modify it...

Woah.... talk about taking a double glance at this name.

It\'s good to see another go at this idea, I wish you the best of luck!

Thx.


Edit: Wait, does someone have a guild like this? If so I will change mine up a bit, because I don\'t mean to copy anyone.

Indeed, there have been / are Rangers of Yliakum in Planeshift, though I am not sure if they are still \"active\" or have disbanded.

masoj here.

Farren, they must have been disbanded because:
I have not seen them since the big wipe, and you cannot create 2 guilds with the same name.  They must not exist anymore so don\'t worry about it.
There are two types of people in this world: The Pinky and the Brain.
Which one are you?

From that thread, it appears as though the guild has indeed been disbanded (two months ago?), but the Rangers had such an RP presence in PlaneShift that I would feel iffy about trying to \"bring it back\" without any of the former members. But that\'s just me :)

I think currently, what you have listed really pulls down the previous standards the Rangers have set for themselves. It was an RP guild, while you have no mention of RP anywhere and instead freely use words like \"noob\" and \"hit points.\"

Also, I question the wisdom of your decision to make a thread before all the information is ready for criticism and review by forum members.

I made the thread more to get members and to be there and partly done when I actually do have the rest of the stuff.

The Rangers Guild was disbanded my Monketh a while ago..  But I think if you can find Monketh or any of the other former members, they would probably want to join.  They felt, and the whole community as well, really strongly for their guild.

Also, I agree about the Rokeplaying aspct that Karyuu mentioned.

I will try. I would like to have as many good-natured players as possible, especially those old guild members. I would be honored by their presence if they wished to join the new Ranger guild.

And I will work on it like i said

1. The RG was disbanded, period.
2. A quite promising guild tried to continue the ideas - the one in the link, by Kiramon.
3. What does your guild have with rangers except for the names?  X(

Have I not said that I am working on it and will be changing a lot of stuff? Did you read the post thoroughly? I am trying to get settled before I make the guild the way I want it. I am an old message board RPer, and I made many of my own RPs, so I know what I am doing. This is why I said hold off the cricism until AFTER I have settled in. It isn\'t too much to ask for.... I will try to reshape my guild into a roleplaying guild soon enough. Just be patient.


Edit: An update on the rank thing..... Expert Ranger will be the highest rank attainable, for I have made Accomplished my second in command, and already have one who seems to like the idea of being kind, helpful, and giving. We started saving up some weapons yesterday for noobs and people who need good weps.

Ok, you may join. Next time you see me or Sheridan ingame, just ask to join, k? Just tell Sheridan I said you could join.
I need a few more new players anyway.... New to the game that is.... My members need someone to help train.
