Because guilds have such a small user group (relatively) it doesn't take many of the more active ones to drop out and make the guild dead. This particular one seems to have lost most of its top posters such as myself, mooby, jeoc, TI, hyper, etc. Some of us return, others never do. Life and commitments tend to get in the way as you get older. Its been several years since I first joined. I used to have plenty of time to post, but nowadays I have next to none. I've moved out of home, moved interstate and back, going to uni, holding down a steady job and it leaves me with little time to catch up with old friends. I've missed the people here, and that is why I am making the effort to try and catch up with everyone again. If only more people would, we could have the old guild back.

Blossom, is it possible to send out a PM to all of the old members saying "We miss you and want you back?" (Wingo,why won't people post in guilds anymore?)


After posting this I began to think of all of the good times we used to have. I miss a lot of the people who have dropped off along the way and would love to see them back again. I remember when Ashahis made me her plushie, but have barely seen her since. Trying to sneak into Heloo Penguin's shower, which she never got back from. Battling Hyper's massive fleet, which never finished. Humorous duscussions with Mooby which seem to have dried up. Domination wars with Shadow which have ceased. I know everyone is busy, but I think we should try to bring the old people back for the fun we used to have. Bring back the times which spawned threads such as the Domination thread and where a domination would only last hours, not days.

I have a plan, we don't need new members. New members won't revive the activity nor bring back the history of the guild. We need tot ry to bring the old people back, a re-invitation if you will. We need to cull the member list of anyone whos has never posted, or posted very little. Why not remove everyone with less than 100 posts? We then all send out PMs to all of the old members (assuming they are still on Gaia ) begging for them to come back for some old fun. What say you, do you wish to help?

You still seem active enough. But if it makes you happy:

"Also BB, who is always trying to dominate yet always fails miserably."

You know, it's good to get new members in here as well. I mean, that's how we got half of the inside jokes we had in the first place. I was a new member at one time. So were you. I remember when Jeoc first joined and when Pengy joined too.

this sounds like a good idea, sans the culling low-post-amount members. i say, keep everyone in (as burger said) and also try to invite new members and message the old members to get them back. do you think you two could put aside your dominating differences long enough to work together on this task? i could help out if need be. ^_^

I'm not sure that I could do that. The need to destroy Wingo will always be there.

I do like the combination of both Wingo's and BB's plans. Basically because I'm kind of a new member (and therefore I'm not sure if I have 100 posts yet!), and I'd really like the chance to get to help revive the guild. But, I also like the idea of the old members back again because I met Shadow on another guild, and I know that she is a woman of infinite brilliance.

What are you talking about, Lupin? She's a woman of infinite disguises.

She is an infamous woman of many great things. But, if she is a woman of great disguises, how do you know she is not here already but just... in the background? She's watching us from the shadows like the shadow-thief she is.

What a Slytherin. -_-

i don't want to boot anyone out, cause that wouldn't help us increase our numbers. we need to get people posting again, and everyone should help advertise the guild and spread the word about our goodness. ^_^ new people and old people can work together, and bb and wingo can still battle for dominance or whatever they want to do. then everyone can be happy!

now go forth and bring new members into our ranks! ^_^

and yes, i quite agree... what a slytherin!

Also.
I feel like I'm an old old old member of this guild. I mean, who really remembers bad roleplaying and Akamatsu? smile
(which someone should totally bring back, btw.)
I'm sure I had more than 75 posts, as well.

I apologize if you are under the impression that I am impersonating Shadow, but I am not. I'm just thinking like her. It's like when you are looking for something you can't find. If you think like it, then maybe you will find it's location sooner. ^^
