The BISM - Hello Again!
« on: December 24, 2003, 02:23:28 am »
Hello everyone, it\'s been a while since I\'ve posted anything about The BISM, basically since not much has been going on :)

But now, since the beginning of December, we have been working hard to get everything moving again.

First, we updated some of the faction descriptions so that they describe better what they are and are less confusing then the previous descriptions (The Rogues description will be updated later) and I also cleared out the member list so only active members are shown.

Also, I\'m currently filling the site up with links (if you want yours there go to the site and submit it!) and maybe going over the FAQ to see if there is anything that needs added/clearing up.

So for those of you who already know what The BISM is, just stop by the site (http://bism.tk) and check out the changes and feel free to tell me what to think...if you like what you see, sign up! ;)

If you do not know what The BISM is, or it just isn\'t very clear, continue reading and I\'ll explain :)

Probably the most important thing for people to understand is that The BISM is not a guild and we do not compete against the guilds. We are an ORGANIZATION who have members who are active in both their guild and The BISM.

What we do is people hire us to do a job for them, and we do it for whatever the agreed upon price is...and by job, I mean anything you want done, you can hire us for (as long as it is reasonable).  The BISM is completely voluntary, we offer people jobs and they can either accept or turn us down, but the only way you are paid is if you do a job for us, then you are paid upon completion (how much varies on the difficulty of the job)  There are also certain positions you can get in that will be paid according to how much you help out within The BISM, you will learn those once your in The BISM itself though.

So we can do multiple jobs at once and be faster at it, The BISM is split into 7 different factions, or groups, who specialize in an area, to find out what they are go to our site and click on the factions link to read up on them.

The current leaders are myself (Council), Sharaz (Rogues), lokee (Mercenaries), and Keldorn (Guardians)...also, we will be beginning our search for our next leader in the other factions, if anyone is interested, make sure you join which faction you want to lead and then email me at ohthatguykiern@hotmail.com and I will put you down on a list of people to consider...it will be a lot of work though, so if your unwilling to be active and help out don\'t bother. :P

Once again, the site is http://bism.tk and if you have ANY comments on anything or questions, I will be happy to answer them.

Thanks to everyone who helped out getting The BISM updated and caught up on everything.  And sorry for the length, I had a lot to say :)

EDIT: Oh yeah, once Sharaz gets back from vacation we will be starting up the RP thread, so any member who wants to join in should do so before then!

Hja, the BISM is older than you think. And we intend to stay. The better PS will get, the better BISM will be there! :)

I joined the forums, but since I can\'t post in mozilla, it\'s very unlikely I\'ll ever post there :P although I would very much like to be a part of it... :(

Hja, try with other browsers. I had problems too, but now it works nearly as it should with my Opera(the site needs some maintenance).

The forum itself isn\'t too active, so you just check it once/day or less if you want to be up-to-date. Not much browser swapping needed.

Yeah, lokee was able to fix the opera problem that lynx was having, so he might be able to fix yours.

Don\'t worry about it Annah, for right now we\'ll stick with them, if we get more problems though I\'ll think about it...thanks for the offer though :)
