sorry, got lost for a moment =/
and no, that doesn\'t mean same thing: You may want to become powerful if your goal is to help others. So your goal isn\'t to become powerful, still you may want to become powerful... I mean why not? Still it isn\'t your goal. but then again it\'s about good guild. Still there might be other goals for neutral guilds, but that doesn\'t mean the guild doesn\'t want to become powerful btw.that\'s what I meant, sorry =/
take Explorers for example - they don\'t have goal to become powerful, but do you think they don\'t want to achieve it by the way?
so to make it straight:
I agree: it\'s useless to become powerful if you don\'t want to
but: if you become powerful it\'s easier to achieve other goals
[edit]c\'mon people... stop with the incorrectable thing already :(.... I could point few arguments where I admited I was wrong, with Axsyrus over statue, or about alignment of OI, or Helhunters (or something like that) and about necromancers being evil... so please just stop, it\'s unfair :([/edit]

I assume you meant a few arguments but it\'s a fun and revelative typo :D. But you\'re right, that\'s unfair :P

uhhh.... ok, I think this argument was born from misunderstanding:
while I thought Ax meant
it\'s stupid not to have becoming powerful as goal,
he probably meant
it\'s stupid to become powerful if you don\'t want too:
\"It is stupid and useless if your goal isn\'t to become powerfull..\"
see? could be taken either way :/

Well, what can i say? I like alliances, but they are of no use, if the members hardly know each other and can therefor not really trust each other. Sure, the more neutral guilds are allied, the more power the alliance would gain, but then again the bigger the alliance, the harder it gets to make decisions and to control the whole thing.

So what is it i want to say? Alliances are a good thing as long as they are not too big, have a purpose and are close knit.

I completely agree Morgy, I think that\'s the best opinion about this alliance thingy that was posted here so far...

Elscouta: I think I could point some ;) more, however I don\'t think you could point ones where I was prooven wrong and still didn\'t admit it

edit: I\'m confusing even myself :P (it\'s a bit late...)
yea, that\'s what I mean :)

I\'m confused now, but I\'m going to say what I think, which is also what I think Draklar means.

Power is means to an end. If your goal is to look after yourself, and you keep getting run over by other guilds, it\'s not gonna happen. You need power. If your goal is to maintain balance, and you are getting pushed around by every and any other guild, it\'s not gonna happen, you need power. Alliances=power. That\'s why it would be good for Neutral guilds to have an Alliance.

Ok, everybody already knew this, neutral guilds already have alliances, useless thread, was just started because neutral guilds should make alliances with uber-cool names like \"The Dark Alliance\" or \"The Citadel of Light\" too..

I say close this, before any other people get confused..


PS. yes, Draklar, that\'s exactly what I meant, that\'s what the word \"IF\" was for ;)
