Piney,
You know how I feel about guild events as we have talked often about it. I would love to see more Crusher events. I have never been one for setting things up but would be more than willing to assist and would attend as my RL schedule allows.
Like Cris, I like the idea of required attendance at guild events if you are online. I mean most serious raids have a required attendance policy, why can't guild events?
But realistically the way this game is set up it wouldn't work. In Everquest most raids were guild only (at least when I played) and there was no real cap on the number of raid members. So you didn't have a bunch of different raids going on which made it easier to set up other events because you knew exactly what nights were guild raid nights, you also didn't have friends from other guilds involved in your raids...usually.
One of the things that makes this game great is that it is so casual player friendly. Just about anyone and everyone can take part in raids and the end game if they wish. The trade off for that, i feel, is it breaks down unity. The cap on number of raid members and ease of raiding means you end up with a bunch of raids scattered across various nights, within your guild. This makes it near impossible to organize anything else as a group. I can't blame raiders for wanting to raid, it's what they love. I blame Blizzard and shoddy game mechanics.
Anyway, let me know how I can help. Would love to see more RP events.
