Great idea, I started nearly a week ago and would have loved to have been able to get a kickstart by being involved in something like this, the first few days were really rough but now I'm self sustainable and have made some great friends as well.

I hope you get a great response to this and not too many people use the tag as an identifier for easily griefed targets. Maybe some of the more high profile PvPers and PK's can get on board with this idea and others will follow suit.

Good luck and, again, great idea!

sifting through posts here, unable to locate what he's speaking of on script wars
anyone that's anyone knows using scripts for pvp is retarded, the object delay alone here destroys you if you try to automate things like potions/hally etc

maybe he was gunned down by archer bots or sumfin? i dunno but i would to

If you find any information on this, please report it to the Yew Tree Huggin Hippie comittee. ty

Thank you very much:) already sustained in a week is pretty impressive, so I congratulate you on that!

If you know anyone who can benefit from this, just have them contact me, or one of the other board members. Ishmael, Jennifer, Yomega, or Nolo:)

Since I just started I know quite a few newer players and I've already begun to direct them here, I'll also spread the word to newer people I meet from here on out.

I would be more than happy to assist in any way I can, I've spent quite a bit of time helping new players in my first month here.

Personally I like Chumbucket's idea . . I spent several hours looking for a greater heal scroll after creating my first character.

Possibly also a singular thread that new users are pointed to that gets them started on game basics? How to make money with a trade character? Fishing for fun and profit, Mining for beginners, etc.

Count me in Fede

I really haven't seen any greifers yet, I was pk'd once while macroing stealth but that was my own fault for making a bad script that lead out of the guard zone.

As far as pk'ers go, I've never had any problems with reds or greys. As long as you don't mess with them, they don't mess with you, atleast at the graveyard.

I think the guild should be helpful but at the same time not allow new players to become dependent on it, afterall this isnt trammel

Full spell books, a few useful rune books are great tools for new players to get started. Sheopards crook, a house to macro anat/eval/provoke/herding etc is also great for starting.

Not all new players know how to start and power game right away either tho, but a spellbook and runebook will help anybody.

This is pretty a touching idea and I will certainly give it some thought.

While I admit my OP in that thread may have come off a bit negative I was not trying to be rude or negative to anyone.

I really did sleep on the idea before making a post but I must say that being a newcomer here and being treated like that leaves a bad taste in your mouth. Put yourself in my shoes you would most likely feel the same.

My original intention was really to point out that your making it really tough for new blood on this shard. And i dont believe that is a positive thing for anyone, you or me. Would you not rather just let people join, have fun and get into the game then they might be in a position to provide others including yourself a better and funner and maybe even a challenging experience. If it helps think of it like this, you can pk and grief the newbs for 1200 gold and possibly a meager amount of regs or you can leave them be and 1-2 months from now they will be carrying better loot and you might enjoy a fight that is not just instagibbed.

The idea of this guild might just help make the game/shard funner for everyone down the road and I think you should all endorse and support the idea.

Businesses have directors, shareholders and employees.

Am I to believe that by 'donating' to this 'business' that any assets purchased that are then sold will result in profits being distributed to the donor/s?

Or is it a trust whereby after the purpose of the trust expires the assets will be returned to the donor/s?

Or is this more akin to 'donating' a 'charity', rather than a business?

Where can the company constitution be viewed? All companies are publicly registered and anyone can ask to see the company constitution - this is where the board of directors voting rights to be.

What rights do shareholders have? Do shareholders have special voting rights? Are minority shareholders able to compel majority shareholders to buy their shares upon exit?

Answers now.
