My opinion:

The main reason The Brethren Court collpased was because it was so darn complex and difficult. This really isn't so much a guild itself, as it is a gathering of guilds. As such, it doesn't need to be treated like an actual guild itself.

The invention of the guild-part of the collective is just to make everything more convient; whose part of the collective, how we can contact them, blah blah.

If this really needs to get off the ground, then it has to be, of all things, simple.

I agree with things done simple 100%, but also think there needs to be not so simple things to take off the ground, and by being simple that is not gonna happen; so I guess there should be a combination of both.


Not too simple, but not too complex, something everyone can understand.


In the other hand if the purpose is only to contact them, and blah blah... then I would not be interested in joining.., because I don't think it would sustain any interest, when you are done talking or checking in. Or maybe I would who knows, I can still join I guess, but I definitely do not want to be the leader in that case.

And in reference to the "The Brethren Court", I believe it would not be anything like that. I was thinking, pirates working together for a common purpose translated into a bigger picture, guilds working together for a common purpose.

I was thinking more of... having a strong foundation; not really looking forward for anything complex. Just have something that everyone would be proud to promote and hold on to, and that would inspire others to Join, but just another guild to kick back and chat, why would anyone have interest in joining, if there is a million fish in the sea


I was thinking,

in the long run

1. first of all, have a sustainable foundation. ( This can be adjusted as things go along)

2.
Some ideas off the top of my mind:

offering training to other guild masters ( and /or their officers - so they could take advantage of that ) by qualified union members, in different topics, such a ranking, managing, and common things that other guilds might have struggle with. And even doing things for the union such for example, say a goal to make our guild show up in the leader-boards. Let each guild decide for themselves whether they want to participate - and help the guild. the concept would be like a brad new guild, made of leaders, and reflect that in events, or trainings, or goals. Something rather entertaining, and could be challenging, and todo's, and maybe special games, offer nominations. So example a guild accomplish something then award could be given, and they can proudly show it on their guild page. Lets say it is a guild, with and their leader willing to do more than just chat.

I chat every day, It gets boring, I would like something that brings positive change, can bring us together, and I believe it is very double, but ONLY with all the participation.

agreed we need a strong leader that people trust and or admire. both candidates have that quality. Del is a very active in the forums gm of pnc and has a policy of no alliances. Carlos is the gm of spania an award winning guild if i remember right strongest guild was the award correct me if I'm wrong.

Igor says many good pirates are out there mate. :piratewheelgo2: Igor think no need to rush new pirate consortium mate, the poll should be established and the votes should be counted. Igor think only way to be fair. Igor also wonder if it not be better to start thinking not of this as a guild but as an office, court or consortium of pirates to help alleviate some of the confusion.

:pirate41::pirate41::pirate41::pirate41:

Alright mates? Should we start the voting? Im dropping out actually, I dont think I want to run.

The two contestants:

-Delmaria Darkskull of Partners N Crime
-Carlos of Spania

Best of luck to both the contestants! I shall be voting for Del.

If we are voting I wanna vote for Carlos of Spania!

Voting ends.... Tuesday at midnight lets say?

I think I am going to drop from race, since Del and I have totally different prospective on how to run it, so I believe that is a major conflict unless we get to an agreement before hand. I do not want to upset anyone, and If I do this; I would want it to work , not just do it for the heck of it. On top of that the leader should get all the support he can get obviously.

I also agree with Igor on this:

Congratulations Captain Delmaria Darkskull! The guildmaster of the Brethren Court II!!! (Temporary name, unless you want to name it that). Del, I would start a new thread where you can post all the rules, guidelines, etc of the new guild.

Igor ask 3 hours for everyone to vote?!?!? Igor say Rome not built in a day mate.

Everyone except Del dropped out, unless Im mistaken... that would make Del the only contestant, therefore he wins. Right?

How did I know this would happen. Well del congratulations next up actualy founding the guild that will be the in game foundation of the collective/union whatever (also bretherans court 2 seams like were just the same thing all over again not the best image). Now back to the old thread.

I did not drop out, I said, I would if we don't get to an agreement. So far no agreement, but also , not even 10 minutes gone by. geez So much rush!

Oh, sorry Carlos, I thought that you had said you dropped out. Sorry about my misunderstanding.

Hold The Phone...

I think it's great that you are trying to make some sort of Guild Collective, however, in your attempt there has been a lot of back and forth here on the forums that is getting out of hand, and skirting the POF Rules.

Keep the chatter to PM's if you must, and in those PM's and here on the thread, be respectful of each other.

If you can't keep it civil, then this thread is going to have to go.
