[Guild] Crafter
« on: August 02, 2006, 02:03:11 pm »
Purpose: To understand the way of Crafting and other related craft. To create the utimate weapon of our own crafting. And to help fellow miners of all race and alignment. RP when we are mining or waiting for metal to melt.

We are currently 43 Member strong. Know of 3 iron, 3 coal, 2 zinc, 2 silver, 1 tin, 1 diamond, 1 ruby, 1 emerald mines so far. And are proud member of the Alliance of Life. (Seeking to make the PlaneShift world more lively and fun)

Alignment: Netural to all, except to fellow miners and crafters :).

Rank: Novice  - These are new member to the guild, they have potential in their craft but yet to realise their full potential.
        Miner    - They have now understood the working of mining (know where to mine for all the available raw material).
        Smelter - This veteran of our guild have the vast understanding of smelting and mining.
        Smith   - The Smith are those that are able to create basic weapon and armor of their choosing.
        Crafter - They excel in the art of Crafting, Repair, Smelting and Mining. A true Crafter in every sense.
        Elite Crafter - They help overseer other in our guild with their erudite knowledge of the world and their craft. They also entrusted with the task of promoting and
                        discovering potential Crafter.       
        Master Crafter - They are the epitome of Crafting. Their superior skill in crafting are very well valued within the guild and in fact to the whole world.
        Grand Crafter - They are those that brought much profit to the guild via the sales of goods crafted within the guild. They also acted as the representative of
                               the guild,  getting larger job offer from other guild and player, and mainly spreading goodwill amongst all fellow miner and crafter.
       Crafter Lord - The great leader of this glorious guild. His knowlegde in Crafting was unsurpass by any.

Rule: - It all right to make large order with other, you can call upon the help of other guild members as long as you pay them reasonably.
        - Assist all other fellow miner and crafter you meet in anyway we can. They might help us fill order in the future.
        - Help each other within the guild, like with promotion quest and such.
        - Share information about our work with other member.

Payment : All member have the right to sell their craft at whatever price they deem fit to any player(except of blacklisted one). Member can keep the whole sum of
               the payment to themselves though they are encourage to donate some to the guild fund to the Grand Crafter, Merchant Lord and Master Crafter.

Guild Fund : The fund is used to help fellow member train and aquire material and item and host Guild Events. Most importantly the fund is not to be misuse (Not even by the high ranking ones).

Guild Event/ Role Play:

-[Event] Our Guild will choose a employee of the month every month, their hardwork will be repay with 10k and 2 guild points and a secret item sponsered by the Grand Crafter or Merchant Lord.

-[RP] For some great player that had help the Crafter Guild(Not to the leader but the guild) a great deal will be presented with a dagger crafted by either Crafter Lord Ganite or Grand Crafter Bitot, that was to be considered as the highest honor to the guild. When presented with the dagger, all Crafter must assist in anyway possible as a acknowledgement to the great help rendered to our guild. (Etc. Giving discount on thing we sell them, helping gather some resource)
Note: Receiver of the Crafter Highest Honor are not to sell the dagger away, for it will cause great confusion and chaos within the guild. If you do wish to have them sell them back to either of the Crafter Leader.


History : Bitot the former Diamond Merchant met up with his good friend Ganite while wandering in the wild searching for new mine to be discovered, when the cloudy sky clear above their head and a great ball of light came down and hovered before them. The ball of light was send by Talad to deliver a divine message from him, to request of the two promising crafter to create the Utimate Weapon for him, a powerful relic that will be marveled at for ages to come, as a tribute to the mighty Talad. But the task was too huge for any mere mortal to accomplish alone, so the pair went in search of other worthly Crafter to aid them in the divine quest entrusted to them. Hence the Crafter was form...and continued to prosper and still strive to accomplish the impossible task of creating the Utimate Weapon.

We named it Crafter because that what we do, we don't need to inspire fear or awe to other player :).
I think the name work just fine, many people ask us about crafting when they did not even know about our guild.(The name say it all)

But i'm up for suggestion if you want to.

Well, it's a little gramatically odd, I think :) "Crafters" would at least sound better, since the exchange--

"What guild are you in?"
"I'm in the Crafter!"

--sounds rather weird.

Excellent start, regardless!
Judge: Are you trying to show contempt for this court, Mr Smith?
Smith: No, My Lord. I am attempting to conceal it.

We usually say "I'm a Crafter"

But that a very good point, i will ask the guild leader for his idea on the slight alteration of name :)

I understand :)

In our guild we also consider ourselves "an Explorer", but we're still a guild of Explorers so the plural form is used in the guild name. Makes for a bit less awkwardness.

Yeah I would change the name as well.. Crafters looks kinda funny. Maybe the Tinkerers ? I dont know.  Other than your name.. let me see.. Hmm also I would have someone proof read your initial post. Im not making fun or anything but it has quite a few problems.

Also,   I wouldnt put on here how much money you have to train members. People will join your guild just so you can help them with money :P.. there are enough evil people that will join just to get money. I know it sounds crazy but it happens.

Last thing, if you dont already have it planned.. I would make a more indepth story. That would really help.

No offense, We considered and we are sticking with the "Crafters". Its is the name agreed by our member and it really work for us \\o//. The name "Crafters" simply tell all other player what we are about and not having to ask our member, what we are all about(Save us alot of time explaining, and quite many player interested in crafting ask about us when they see our name). So again No offense :)

"Tinkerer" is just any other way to call a Crafter, so we can't use it if you guys said that the Crafters is not a good name. But thank for the suggestion :)

'Crafter' as a name is fine. I like having Crafter above my head rather than The Crafters or some silliness. We are a practical guild, most of us are very serious minded, and this is straight and to the point...

Well I quite like the concept. It's a nice change from goodie-samaritan-guilds (no offense meant  ;)
) and evil-doers.

The thing is, I don't seem to find many members in-game, not to mention leaders. Are you still active? Because I'm (Wildan that is) considering joining...

See you at the smithy, hopefully  :thumbup:

I disagree Valb. The name flavors the guild. I look at "Crafter" and think "n00b". I would look at something along the lines of what you said, Tinkerers, and think, "At least they're trying."

This guild won't last. I'm sorry, but that's the way it is. Your purpose is... lacking, to say the least. I mean, you're the kind of guild people use for a time. You basically have no RP elements. You are bland.

Unfortunately, Phinehas. I look at your name and think a word I cannot repeat here. 'The Crafter' (and IT IS 'THE CRAFTER') is very much alive. The reason that you are dead wrong on this Phinehas is because Bitot and Ganite are not sarcastic, caustic trolls and actually care about the guildmembers very much. We added a couple of more members in the last couple of days. Despite all of us having IRL duties that sometimes keep us away from Hydlaa, we are very active... as you would have seen last night at our presentment ceremony at the gold field to annoint the new alliance Illustro, that includes the Merchants of Light. We actually spend a lot of time working with the new members, and don't just invite people to boost the numbers on the guild. Lomerandin: We would be happy to have you, just contact Bitot, Ganite or Lesilie when you are on line. Phinehas, I have enjoyed your timely and concise commentary in a number of threads, but this time you are simply wrong ... you can call us names, but really what you think is the least of our concerns. Peace.

Actually, what I said was perfectly true. You may not like it, that's fine. I still stick to my opinion. Without being elitist or an "oldbie" you'll have to forgive me if I consider my opinion to carry more weight than the opinion of someone who's only been around for a month or so.
