Original Guild Aliance
« on: January 27, 2004, 03:14:12 am »
What i have noticed happening to other MMORPGS is newbie guilds becoming more dominant than the original guilds... A lot of times this occurs because they just plain steel the ideas and theams of other guilds... To prevent this from happening I want to start an \"Original Guild Aliance\" (someone make up a cooler name)

This aliance will include guilds that were active before the release of CB. I think this is very important considering the amount of guilds that are already in PS and how they will effect the communisty... In other words this will keep the guilds that joined CB because its a great game not because \"all the cool people are doing it\"...

Sory my explanation is not that great, but i think it gets the basic idea across....

What do you think people???



Q: How many Planeshifters does it take to expalin a simple concept to a newb?
A: Six. Five to argue on who\'s explanation is right, and Moogie to lock the thread.

I think the newbies have every right to dominate the game if they have the wish and the ability.  Mirth is not after power, so it will not upset us if a new order arises.  Regardless, we will strive to bring Mirth to the Planeshift community.  

I have serious doubts about how successful this idea will be, but you can certainly count Mirth out.   8)

I actually got an A on my physics test!  Woohoo!!  (I\'m sad to say that my sudden cutback on PS time may have a lot to do with it.)   X(

What do you propose that this alliance do? Kill the newbs?

I agree with the Pint man, if they are good enough to pull past the older guilds, more power to them.

I agree somewhat. Only somewhat. I dont think more power to them really. Although that is what makes the game evolve (adopting ideas and improving upon them) So really I think guilds should be strictly kept. Making a guild should be harder than it currently is. And if your not an official guild then you should not be able to do important things that offcial ones can do. Eh i dont feel like thinking about this one too much so ill back to you later... or something. Ill make a post just as soon as Duke Nukem: Forever comes out for gamecube. :P

I agree with the statement that if another guild forms and it is better at what it does than an older guild.. well that is called evolution.. it happens.     But I do like the idea of forming maybe a guild leader forum where all the guild leaders post and or talk shop.. If there already is one and I missed it then I am blind and deserve to be flamed.).

COME ON CB.. woot.

There are already some contracts and alliances between guilds, we don\'t need a general alliance. Politic is a part of the game  :] . If good newbies guilds emerge on CB, it will be good for them ... and for us  :)

Yeah, I agree with you there, that\'s how I thought it was going to be, but doesn\'t look like it :P

Your answer is uinreadable. Please use plain words and punctuation when you write, you\'re not sending an SMS, and some people here aren\'t natively speaking english.

About this story of \"guild regulation\", I\'m against. Guilds are created, grow bigger, stagnate, decade and die. It is life!

I agree to this too. Maybe once housing is implemented only guilds that can afford a house can become official(this wouldn\'t stop any new guilds from appearing, they just have to build a strong organisation and make lots of money _before_ they make the guild official..).

in reply to Axsyrus, I would still like the devs to regulate official guilds. IMHO i think there should be only about 30 guilds. That way each of them has a SPECIFIC direction and they dont seem to be based on the same ideals and objectives. One assassins guild, one holy fighters guild, one thieves guild, one underground mobster guild, one evil guild, one magic guild, one exploring guild, one or 2 guard guilds that can fight over different ideals, etc.

That\'s stupid.

Firstly, there would be no competition.

Secondly, there is less room for creativity.

Thirdly, what if the magic guild sucks? You can\'t create your own.

Fourthly, it\'s hard to define exactly what a guild is.

Fifthly, there will be a lot of argument over it.

Sixthly, what will you do about existing guilds? Destroy one of them?

Seventhly, two guilds can be similar, but go about things in a completely differant way. Why should only one have the right to exist?

Lastly, people should be able to start a good guild if they want.

NO YOUR STUPID :P

Firstly, so what It would be better that way.

Secondly, creativity would be more important because since there is on official guild people would try to mold it and improve it instead of spamming up another guild.

thirdly, you can but it wont be official. too bad you should try to be a more active participant in your original guild

fourthly, thats what my system would cure since it would be official and word of the devs.

fifthly, so what screw em they should get more active in the participation of thier guiild

sixthly, no but its up to the devs if they are official.

seventhly, because they are obviously better and evolve more and have more active participants.

lastly, they can but it wont be official.

Well it seems all the current \"non-guilds\" fit your vision more so then the guilds are even close to whemy :P  I do have to agree with Davis on that part, it should be harder to become official, but once you are I don\'t think the devs should have anything to do with a certain guild individually other then if they were regular people.
