I know there is still some work to do. Like a good history and story.
Also some suggestions from people who want to join the guid are very welcome.

For the web page, I have no idea how do make one, therefore I hope some future members could help for this subject.

It should not just be a guild to "hang out" with people, but I also don't want to restrict people in what they should do ingame.

If a member whants to go mine and after some time he whants to go for quests, then he should be able to do this.

Again, I will be very happy for any help.

Think about this: why are you starting a guild? :) Or most importantly, why is your character starting a guild? Does he or she just want to lead something? If that's the case, you may be better off waiting until you have a more solid idea, or joining an already existing guild to understand how they should function.

Stay away from cookie-cutter ideas - which are basically guilds that have been done a million times before. If there are 10 guilds already dedicated to "peace-keeping," for example, it might do you more good to join one instead of starting yet another. Try to think of something unique, something that will draw people's attention. The problem is that we cannot make your guild for you, you have to contribute ideas :]

So where would you like to go?

Smith: No, My Lord. I am attempting to conceal it.

I will not start a guild just because I want to lead something... The leading should be done by a council of 5 members where every decision is voted by the council.

The purpose of creating a guild is that I want to share ingame information with other people or members. I had also a look on already exsisting guilds. A good one which I know is "The way of the Hammer" but it became too structured where a higher ranked member tells you what you have to do and I don't like that idea. I want to be free to do what I want. If I want to go mine, I will go mine. If I want to go explore, I go explore. I don't need someone inside the guild who tells me "You have to do this and that..."

That was the main purpose why my character will start a guild. And I was hoping to find some people who feel and think the same way.

If the guild has later enough members, there will always be something to do for everyone.

Something like the Knowledge Seekers, perhaps? Have you taken a look at that guild?

Was that nessesary? Did it really add?
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  :'(

I have a funny impression that most of dwarf characters in the game join dwarf-exclusive guilds.

Not sure about Enkidukais though, still it seems to me that most dwarves are in such guilds.

Dwarf-only guilds, this is a niche that is getting too filled in Planeshift.

Good luck with the dwarf guild, you'll find it hard getting members at times.....after all its a select few to choose from.

But good luck setting up history, ranks and aims ect.

hmm dwarves have a great pride for their race. Where did I hear that before? ;)

As for enkies there are only three enkie guilds I believe one only allowing fenkies, but don't get the impression most enkies are members of these guilds. Have several in the Dark Empire for example. Hardly any dwarves though hmmm.

Well anyhow starting a guild where you share info but don't boss eacother around is a good IC reason to start a guild, but as been said the Knowledge Seekers seem to fit the bill so have a look there.
