gm's don't seem that stressed over the last week... doing trivia, starting up a best of the best, etc... only one thing has changed.

I am not in favor of adding complexity to reduce complications. This patron idea just introduces a whole lot of other ways for things to go wrong or get harder to deal with. Simple is better.

Your answer to that may be, "but it isn't working the way it is". My response to that would be that players who perpetrate wrong doings (and or guild leaders who permit it) are already responsible for bad behavior. The real issue here is that there is not sufficient staff to actually police the players adequately. Add more GMs, you might improve things. Anything less is not going to work.

Ambrotos is right. If there is any way in which a representative of a guild might make it easier for the GMs to do their job, the guild leader is the natural, simple and existing point of contact. We don't need another layer. Besides, it wouldn't be "classic" =P

Having said all of the above, I do applaud you for trying to come up with constructive ideas to help make things better.

This wouldn't solve a thing. PvP server failed, get over it and move on.

PvP server wasn't classic. That's the premier reason it failed.

I agree with Doors.

books dont work?

Was hoping more lulzy examples would be posted

Haha noooo don't ... But it's true..

Except the guild with the most power.. Really has the most power.. Then it eats even stickier.."do something about it"
Ahh Rallos Zek

Classic or not, fail is fail. Enabling PvP won't solve anything. Would create even more problems and a smaller population on the server.
