![]() I suppose it depends on your goals and vision. Do you want this guild to be a raiding guild? If so, then it is clear that you have to mix good and evil (you're going to need Shamans and the like).
If you're just looking to RP in guildchat, make friends and XP together then that's another story. There was a guild on this server right when Kunark launched that was Iksar-only, they never raided or anything serious, but it was what it was. | ||

![]() [[ Honestly guys, to set something like that up requires me to put a damn lot of trust in another player to keep it running, if they cave in essentially my guild would cave in too... I just dunno if I would want to risk that. People that signed up for the two guilds might leave and essentially it would have to be a reform. However I'll probably come up with a bunch of names, set up a site and those who are going to join will be able to vote on the name, having said that I will probably require that only MAINS get to vote considering its a tag we are going to be repping full time ]]

![]() [[ trouble being it's too awkward to use out of everquest chat programs for a medium guild chat... I'd rather just keep it all under one roof. It's easier to put together and also to manage. As far as voting goes you would have to show some real commitment, as I said this is my main, I have to carry the tag around with me and so do others, so I would want to make sure it is a decent one. But yea chances are if you was signed up to the site and putting forward ideas I'd consider you a contributor gaining a vote. ]]

![]() I prefer a decentralized, free-association of roleplayers with no requirement for alignment, OOC, or specific roleplaying style.
The guild could be represented as a kind of Federation or Council, with everybody guilded regardless of alignment. Characters would then be divided into subgroups based on their alignment, or even their chosen style of roleplay. (For example Good, Evil, Neutral, or even 'Tunare', 'Iksar', 'Elf', 'Antonican' if you really want to split hairs). Guild leadership would be shared among representatives, one from each subgroup. If a good wants to group with an evil, that's fine-- you're a member of the same organization, and your representative has an equal 1/3 say in the goals and policy of the guild. At the same time, nobody is forcing you to group outside of your alignment, but you still share the same tag and guildchat. For the sake of explanation let's say the guild is called 'The Crescent Covenant" or crescent council, or something that represents the union and duality of light and dark (A crescent being the moon in shadow). The concept of eclipse works too. Anyway, let's say the good side is doing its own thing but one day it wants to raid the Plane of Sky, but it needs help. The good representative goes to the council and proposes a joint-raid kind of thing. Neutral council member/representative/co-leader thinks that sounds swell, and says the non-aligned want to attend. Evil can decide whether that particular raid or event fits their worldview, and attend if they'd like. It's up to the guild how you'd want to interpret that participation-- cooperation for the greater good? A duty to serve the will of the council when it is required? Quid pro quo? The important idea is that everybody is under the same tag, in the same guildchat, but still with some degree of insulation. Want to do a good-only event? Go for it. Want to arrange some kind of combat between good and evil? Still works. Just some ideas | ||

![]() [[ Ephirith you put forward a good argument, but I feel that it's on the danger line of too many sub groups.
The main aim of the guild is just to create a welcoming home for roleplayers of the server, or even pull a few out from the existing population that feel they have never been able to show it. I'm not trying to badger anyone into a specific style but ooc indications again will be mandatory. Also I'm not expecting LOADS of guild members. I know there would be enough, but I don't think that it will be an overpopulated guild so to speak, therefor I think splitting good/evil is personally, a bad idea. What i'm trying to say is I enjoy roleplaying, even though it doesn't fit my style to mix with innoruuk for the greater good of the community I am trying to build, it might just be best to go for the unity idea in plan 1 ]]

![]() The guild could be an organization like the Illuminati? You could probably mix both good and evil virtues into a secret organization trying to control the events of Norrath. It would still allow for some animosity too as the organization could easily fight amongst itself since its specific goals are not quite clear, but the whole goal is universally ambiguous enough to umbrella all races and religions.
