Well there isn't a welcome thread or anything. Besides, what else are you supposed to post if you run out of ideas and you don't know when to come in?

Ears burning a bit? Nice of you to stop in. sweatdrop

Sorry for the somewhat obscure welcoming procedures, yes. We have a Welcome thread... Of sorts. It hasn't been used for introductions, as of yet, but it could. Or if it's really important that we have a place for introductions, I suppose we could make one. It didn't seem particularly necessary to me, so I was simply putting it off until someone else requested it... User Image


It's fine with me. Most guilds do have a introduction thread, so I found this strange not to have one. But then again, this is an idea thread, so it's ok.
At least theres a discussion thread. If there wasn't, it would have been a dead guild....User Image

Indeed - this one, here, was another of my oversights, added at Quint's suggestion. I understand my own limited experience in actually creating Guilds, so I'm always open to suggestions for doing so a little better... sweatdrop

This is the welcome thread. biggrin Well, it can very well be. Do we need a separate thread just for that when we get only two new members every week? Don't feel shy to say otherwise!
I think several of the people here can do without welcomes anyways.

Well, there's a simple procedure to get stuff to discuss. Bump threads, even if old. Just, show interest, and the comment might bring some added interest.
You ought to notice that since the guild homepages and guild's homepages were updated to show most recent posts and threads, people use that feature instead of checking the forums. Who wouldn't? It's handy!

But either ways, the Blind Spot is your cookie cutter hangout. When there's really just nothing to be said, that will be the only active thread, as it accepts all sorts of discussion, that's to be sure.

Oh, and yeah, the guild isn't restricted to zOMG! features suggestions. You can make threads about, for example, JK's mob spawning sprees and your feelings towards it if you want. Or just features outside zOMG! but still a part of Gaia. Make as well make everything better.

I didn't really find the lack of a welcome thread off-putting. I mean, they usually just have people going, "Hi. I'm... I joined because... I like...." Then they are quoted by others greeting them and it transforms into a thread like this one, just a hangout thread.

*yawn* *is sleepy*

May I ask though, what games/media/culture/mythologies/etc. influence you when you suggest stuff for zOMG?

MMO's, mostly. But I tend to stick to gameplay mechanics and not to concept suggestions. I don't have the creative knack for that, but if it's OCD stuff or preventing design issues from repeating from game to game, it's quite easy for me to pick it up and bring to attention.

Dastardly animated tactics in particular, I've seen many of them that could work on zOMG! coming from PSO and some other Action RPG MMO's, even if they would need to be reworked.

I wouldn't mind a flaming halo... or a flamingo halo.

Flamingo Halo is worth reviving that Epic Recipe Suggestion thread all on its own... 3nodding

EDIT: Flaming Flamingo Halo. More better? sweatdrop

Yes. I think a Flaming Flamingo Halo is reason enough to revive the Epic Recipes thread. Any others we want to add to it while we're here?

Maybe a fluffro, an afro colored and with eye decorations and all to make it look like a fluff. eek

Maybe some Zen Garden influenced unisex/male clothing that's not ninja themed?

Subject came up today, and I realised it'd been a while. For the most part, z!F seems to have stopped hating me (after the last time), so I figured it was about time to stir up some more animosity. sweatdrop

I say release the love monkeys, we gotta get that golden egg!! scream

Considering how things are going though, we can give good reasons to re-release FF(kind of). o3o

Joke examples:
1. It gets us faster to hit the cap
2. We'll really need to be lucky when zOMG does get harder. o.o
