Ryiel Fohpaws, the reason I find problems in your guild story is not because I'm too stupid to understand what you're saying.  The reason I'm finding problems is because your guild story is severely flawed.

I don't see any kind of reasoning, only attacks with full force in bad way of manner
They are full force attacks that are well reasoned out.

You just ignore my posts, my reasoning.
No, I've replied to your posts in detail, quoting the parts that I'm replying to.  That's hardly ignoring your posts.

Nobody said the brothers arrived when Hydlaa was just founded.
Except you.  You said that you arived in the city early enough to witness its early developement.

They control nothing now. They have no power now. But you keep telling me that they still control everything behind the scenes.
They controlled everything behind the scenes at one point, yes?

Nobody said that The Syndicate is allied with the shadow of darkness or the outlaws.
After rereading your history, you're right.  You merely mention them as disobeying the law.

Anyway, thanks for all those who opened my eyes, my story is hardly flawless.
No, I would venture to say that it's very much flawed.

I haven't decided yet what to do. I just would like to ask one little thing zanzibar: Spare your full force attacks to RL, I suggest you kickbox or wrestling. :) This "duel me noob" manner fits perfectly for diablo2 but I thought this game is different. I know you don't wanna hear my opinion but this game is for having fun. (with others) I wanted to ruin nobody's fun, guild, IC life. I've read others opinion about my guild, my guildstory and my mistakes. I always try to be a person who learns from his own mistakes and from others as well. All the guys who met me in game (Not me, Ryiel :D ), I hope I could make you smile once at least. This guild was another attempt to have as much fun as possible but some guys know no mercy, instead of just letting me know what's wrong with my ideas, how to fix the cracks and patch the holes told me: My story does not worth to save it. You know what? You are right. And I don't think I'll spend more time on this story, to save this story. It simply does not worth the time and the struggle. I hope all those who's characters I involved can forgive me, I had no thought of offending you. Peace  :surrender:  :thumbup:

I think I'm gonna rewrite the whole story, the whole guild. I don't know yet what to tell those who put their trust in me and joined my guild. I have only 6 active players in my guild. That was a good start guys. I already talked to one of them who said she won't let me down. So, I will come back, I don't know when and how but I let you know it.

Pm sent to Sangwa, one of my guildmembers convinced me to give it a shot. She is damn wise. ;)

Upon creating a thread about your guild, you open yourself up to full critism.

Zanzi was simply pointing out holes in your guild's story, that need to be filled.  Preferably, with something that fits the settings of the world and is believable.

Constructive critism like what Zanzi has done is a good thing!  It helps you see problems with your ideas and helps to get you started on how you can go about fixing the problems.

You're the one taking things personally here, Ryiel... You just need to take these opinions as they are: opinions. They might sound harsh and cruel, but they certainly aren't, since you can just select what parts you wish to take into account and ignore the rest without any repercussions. Be at ease, no one's telling you to go away. Simply making sure you understand what are the standards around here.
Disclaimer: This is my opinion and I can be reasoned with. I'm probably right, though.

Indeed, don't expect any of it to be upbuilding either, Hence why I don't post much around here.


Though I like the idea of a syndicate sort of guild.

I think it's time for an advice:

The Dark Empire background did not claim they were already powerful, known and victorious over other organizations when they were founded years ago(Someone correct this if I'm wrong),  so the best solution for fixing this history, is by going back on time on it and put the Syndicate in the current time as when it began from what it seems, in other words, as a group that is being founded now, that still must achieve power through both public and not so public means, that is trying to push someone(the brother of the leader) to become a Vigesimi and that may in the future enter in conflict against the Dark Empire(not in the past like the history claims), or perhaps not. And then just add more details to this initial part of the history and it will probably become acceptable. Of course you could also write everything from scratch, but this suggestion is here for you.

Exactly what I mean when saying "earn your story."

You cannot rewrite past but, who knows; maybe you can rewrite the future.
I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(
