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.
