It's a good idea. But as other people said, new people will be extremely confused. I'm still relatively new, having joined just in the last game. And I can tell you, for three-fourths of the whole game, I was running around like a maniac randomly accusing people of being sniper without any good backup, voting for who I felt like just because, etc.

What if anyone new who joins also promotes the wrong type of behavior appropriate for this guild, and then creates a lasting effect on it? That would be bad.
I've been planning on making a guide for newbies for a long time. This might be the occasion to pull me from my procrastination; I could maybe make a group project out of it if people feel like helping me. heart

What exactly do you mean by "wrong type of behavior"?

Like, not exactly understanding the general point of the guild or what we have to do. And then running around doing what they perceive the guild to be, but it's actually different. Basically.

Yeah. I think new people is what we need.
But can people be accepted into the guild? Isnt Zae is the only who can accept now because of the drama..? >->

But yeah. I completely agree with you. I'd defenatly give up my dancing panda for big, eye catching sigs. ;D

Hirun- I lawl'd. <3
Maybe you should make another with bright, seizure enducing colors also? xD

They can still play the game without being accepted in the guild. n.n

How can it have a lasting effect, though? I don't understand. I'd think we would just correct them if they were acting inappropriately or got out of line.

One thing that I think is making the game boring, also, is the lack of USER INVOLVEMENT in the updates and stuff. I mean, yeah, we vote and point fingers, but that's IT.
I think that Page 666 (in the thread) was cool. Were Zae would put something like "hide and put your hiding places in your sigs" and then incorporate into the update.

I agree about the advertising, but not about the two GM thing. I really don't agree with it.

Okay =3 I just didn't think it would work, what if the two GMs decided to not get along? Or if they are mortal enermies? gonk It could be bad pie!!

But yes! When we get a GM I think we should go advertising CRAZY!!

I've really felt like the Game has been dying and drowning into a pool of name-calling and uneeded drama lately... -- and I've found myself not posting much lately, either..
I miss the Game.. the way it used to be.
I'm glad I still have contact with you guys, though.. I've met a lot of great people here..
o_o; If we can make it that way again..... then I'm all for it. gonk heart

This is another ploblem. The drama? They want the drama? THEY CAN'T HANDLE THE DRAMA! gonk So they blow everything out of proportion. Then people call him/her dramallama then he/she calls them doofusface then everyone's all like "WTF UH-UH. talk2hand " and he/she's all like "UH-HUH! talk2hand " and there's people in the middle going "JUST STFU ALREAD JOO DOOFUSLLAMAS! talk2hand " and soon, we're all calling each other names for stupid reasons, screaming like small childs at our poor computers, who did nothing wrong and go emo, cut their wires and die. Then we're all sad in our unlit rooms. Un-suspiciously.

If we just stop talking about the name calling and mention if someone is POLITELY in a PM, it might stop. Then all our computers would be happy and we'd all go out to play Guitar Hero II.

I think sheepvoting is the worst, honestly. it's like everyone's just too lazy to think of the clues and work it out themselves, so they just follow whoever's got the most convincing votepost. on the first page.

that's why I wanted to add a class of GCD'ers that could negate a jailing vote if they saw it was obivously sheeped.

That'd be a good idea, I mean...there shouldn't be anything wrong with sheeping, because what it's supposed to be is someone has reason a person should be jailed, they tell everyone to vote for this person and that person is jailed.

But when it gets to the point where people are just voting for someone because someone else voted for them so they can just get their vote over with and not have to deal with possible inactivity, that's...silly

and...gaw, I just...agreed completely to your post-without adding anything. So...this one seemingly has no point. It's like a really long bump-cleverly disguised as a post.


...as long as that's what I'm up to...pretend I did it to IHD's post, 'cause...yeah.
