*Takes a deep breathe and clears throat* Ahem...First of all i would like to say thank you to everyone for putting thier heads together..brainstorming...and coming up with some excellent ideas. For infact, WE make this guild what it is and what it shall become...WE. Between us, there is a great amount of knowledge of this game but, what good is it if we do not pass it on?
I left my last guild TK because of the fact that there were only 2 active members WAR-DOG and myself. You cannot imagine how tough this was, the leaders of this guild are our real life friends. I sought out PGoH because everywhere you went there was a gaurdian...I thought how great is that activeness. Now you hardly see anyone, anywhere...other than the few who welcomed me in and molded me into a gaurdian. I refuse to leave this guild and my new family for the simple fact that, based on the charactor of the people in this guild we shall triumph.
How do we do this? Triumph? We follow the path that the codex has laid out for us. Knights...get out and recruit...the stone situation has been rectified. However in your recruiting remember what we are looking for in new brothers and sisters...take them out...watch thier playstyle...have them read and have a general knowledge of the codex before trying to stone them...dont forget the application and webpage has to be filled out as well.
Knights and above...take an active role in the molding of our legionairres and squires. Help them...spar...take them hunting...teach them the tactics of war...tell them the best items to make a certain skill levels of crafting...all of these things will provide loyalty to our family. We show them we care, and they shall show us. Remember Borg's words THE NEEDS OF THE MANY!!!!
Before going out check your pigeon list see who is on, send mass pigeon asking for company...PROMOTE ACTIVENESS...hold a guild event...it doesnt always have to be a hunt, it can be just a gathering, a fellowship meeting if you please. Dor of Sonoma shard has huge turnouts at story telling night..yes something so simple draws a crowd of 15-30 people and all who come enjoy themselves...you have a beautiful setting at Safe Haven that is just sitting there unused.
Lastly...have fun. Thats why we play isnt it? FUN.
Sorry for ranting but, thats how i feel. Lets stick together, hold our heads high...because well...we are THE PURPLE GUARDIANS OF HONOR. Any questions?
