I knew I was under a bit with my estimates for clerics, but wow, I was way under in my estimate for enchanters then [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Just proves my point that even with the posted numbers, running a guild is not as cheap as Pikrib makes it out to be

Your figures for running a guild are low.

I'm just using averages here..


Clerics
Assume 5 clerics go thru 8 stacks of dots each a week (guarantee that most clerics use the "guild" dots to buff groups too)
40 stacks of dots (round out to 200pp per stack) a week x 52 weeks = 416,000pp

Enchanters use dots too
Assume 3 enchanters go thru 4 stacks each a week. 12 stacks x 52 weeks = 124,800

Sky raids
Assuming 4 raids in sky a week x 4 groups generally (though there are always stragglers that need ported up)
235pp a stone * 4 groups, 4x week, 52 weeks = 195,520pp

Hate
Usually attended more heavily than sky, so 7 ports per raid (stragglers, late comers, getting an alt up to loot a rot item, etc. )
100pp stone * 7 groups, 3x week, 52 weeks = 109,200

Total for a year assuming costs are spread out to only the number of characters listed above 845,520

Now knowing that the costs listed above are not incurred by just 1 wizard doing all the ports, or 5 clerics doing all the buffing, etc you can easily extrapolate that costs associated in dots and stones alone is well over 1 million a year, and that's not counting other incidentals.
And this doesn't even cover the costs of coffins or sky keys.

I didn't bother responding to Pikrib's numbers because they are so far off it's not worth debating. 600k probably would have lasted Red Dawn a year but it's maybe a third of what we need, if that. The whole premise was retarded, as we've never sold anything for 600k and the reason it was priced at 600k is that we didn't want to sell it in the first place. It was a "make me an offer I can't refuse" type price. That exact same BP sold for 15K or less, or was just given to a new cleric for free.

He is just trying to stir shit up with no idea what he is talking about, no reason to justify it any more with legitimate responses. :P

I think your guild banks are already banned. No point in petitioning
