Convince me...

[Pharcyde]

I have no intent of ever joining a guild, BUT! I am getting hammered in guild invites. I see no point for guilds now, no point for guilds even when they are official, no point in them ever. Sooo.. Convince me why I should join a guild.

[Ersana]

Guilds are something that doesn't put all the pressure on PL as a game guilds are supposed to be a way to interact with other people and have fun instead of waisting your days farming Plasma Pyramid

[Pharcyde]

I already socialize with people in game though. Why do I need a guild to do that? Also why am I gonna say "Yes Boss" to some virtual person halfway across the world? Guilds just bring unwanted ranking systems to the game.

Gives your a solid group to work with, and something to do. NOW JOIN AEO!

[Ersana]

Actually guilds are a way of organizing PL. It isn't just yes boss guilds just are something that offer activities like tourneys and farming events stuff like that. If it was yes boss no one would be in a guild

[Pharcyde]

Thats how it ends up all the time. I have seen old guilds on PL that implemented strict rules that will get you booted from the guild if you don't follow. Like example "You MUST contribute 100k to the guild vault or your out of the guild".

Now once we got an official system, whats gonna stop the leader from going mad and entitling himself to king?

Also if I want to join a tourney, I'll join one on the forum.

All other MMO's with strict guild systems = total tyrannies. MMO's with no guild system but been around for awhile = very strict rules, some requiring up to 16+ hours of gameplay a day?..... and generally scam you out of gold/items.

Gives your a solid group to work with, and something to do. NOW JOIN AEO!

Nahh I think I'll pass forever on that offer.

I remember playing with you before you hit the cap & you are obviously good enough & friendly enough that you dont need a guild to have good groups.

But ask not what your guild can do for you, but what you can do for your guild! Helping guildies level & with quests gives me a reason to keep playing in a way that's better than helping randoms. I've been happy wth AEO, they don't expect much of me except to say hi and join groups I'd want to join anyway.

I recommend but understand how you might not agree. It's hard to make the case that it's necessary; this isn't EVE online.

[Arterra]

wait for it....

[Arterra]

giving myself the next page, waaaait for iiiit....

[Arterra]

I remember playing with you too in Plasma Pyramid! Fastest and best rounds of Plasma in my life! You sir are a beast. But yeah I already help people out a ton. Then I also got friends who help me out a ton. Just the other day, Kingofhurtz helped me boost babyphar to lvl 32 .

Sorry but I am already in the British Secret Service. The names Phar. Beast Phar.

Some guilds are theme based like mine. You don't commit a whole account to my guild just one character.

we'll see how guilds work in game. i too would find it interesting to have chars in whatever guild.

[DawnInfinity]

I kind of feel the same way as you, phar. I've been there and done that with guilds, not sure if I need / want to join another.

[Arterra]

tbh it is not necessarily devoting yourself to something. half the time i have no idea people in my friends list are aeo. it is just nice to suddenly find a connection, and so try harder, laugh harder, party harder...
it is simply being is something. there arn't any real rules except for just play well, and if you are in a guild that does ask a lot, then you are in the wrong one.

[Lesrider]

Phar, you do know that the second you say you're joining a guild you'll probably get lots of gifts? Probably every guild wants you!

[BeardedBear]

I was never a guild/clan person. I enjoy working to get everything for myself and not relying on others; gives you more sense of worth IMO. Although I help friends out all the time, I would never commit to a guild. Besides PvP (which is very flawed) purposes, I don't see a real need for guilds in PL.
