The Lumberjack Guild
« on: May 27, 2004, 05:10:02 am »
Hear me, beavermen of Yliakum!

Good with an axe? Like chopping things down and developing sexy muscles? Then the Lumberjack\'s guild is right for you!

Together, we chop!

Website on it\'s way.

I think he is serious ... Pretty cool idea I guess, not sure when tree felling will actually be implemented in game though so I imagine you will just be sat around admiring each others muscles till then? I always thought it would be cool if we had more guilds based upon trades because in real life that?s what they were - merchants\' guild, actors\' guild, guild of musicians, etc. Not many guild were dark empires, no a dark empire is more of an empire  :rolleyes:.

Anyway good luck Davis; may you axe be sharp and your wood be valuable.

Yliakum is not as wel developed as Earth today. The people of Planeshift don\'t have to worry nearly as much about conserving resources.

Zephyrus, that\'s one of the reasons I had the idea. All the guilds now seem to be devoted to killing people or conquering something. What happened to chopping down trees?

Yes, by definition a guild is more like today\'s unions than anything else. In MMORPGs, however, it\'s become a broader term.

Anyway, the site\'s coming along great, and I\'m taking applicants.

Good luck, hope you find yourself some workers. I would apply myself, but I prefer sticking with Dark Empires which are, you know, like empires...
I am not that good with an axe anyway :P. Killing people is more fun (and might I add profitable) then killing trees, I can do that IRL (if I get an axe or chainsaw).
Bah, I don\'t think an RPG with only stupid merchant guilds and such would be fun ^^, why recreate RL? Play sims or something for that effect :P.
Disclaimer: This is my opinion and I can be reasoned with. I'm probably right, though.

Join the Dark Empire!

It is odd that it was used in such a context though, I mean usually MMORPG guilds just go around bashing monsters - in my mind thats more of a militia or a band of thugs (depending on pvp ;)). But yeah now its just used to indicate any sub-soceity of gamers in an mmorpg - I mean surely there is better words, I just cant think of any right now.

Erm good luck with your lumberjack guild Davis, maybe one day your guild will control like 95% of all the woodproduction in Yliakum, a bit like microsoft is with OS\'es. ;)
