Celebrating One Year of Partners N Crime
 

*Warning: Long dramatic speech ahead*

Can you guys believe it? One whole year has gone by already. And so much has happened since. We lost old friends, and we gained new friends. We went through hell, and we came back. We laugh, we cried, we, well, threw up a few times, but thats not my point! Its been one great adventure after another the past year - and each of them, I can say, I cherish.

In early June of 2009, the once extremely successful guild, Partners In Crime, fell apart after a loss of leadership. Most of its members were stunned, unsure of what to do. We talked for days on end of what to do. Some suggested us all moving to a single guild. Others, thought it would be best to head our seperate ways. Yet some, believed that Partners In Crime didn't have to end. We may had lost our guidance, but that didn't mean we were lost. These people believed in a new guild, a continuation of the guild. Of course, they needed a leader - and out of all people, I became it. It was a daunting task at first, I knew it wouldn't be easy - we had many problems still needing to be resolved from the old guild. But, we went on to do it. So, on June 15th, 2009, the guild was formed, and on June 23rd, 2009, after going through an entire LIST of names, ours was FINALLY approved - Partners N Crime.

The first few months were definately the rough ones. We had to sail through lots of rough water - a guild with only 9 members, forced to reestablish a set standard of guild guidelines, resolve previous conflicts with numerous people and guilds, and of course, keeping ourselves afloat. We weren't able to grab many members, and we didn't have that much of a force behind us to do anything we could have done before. But those 9 members stuck to it. And it was thanks to them that we were able to get off the ground. They allowed us to grow, to thrive, and its thanks to them the guild was able to be where it is today. To this day, we are still a small guild - 68 members total. But we have heart that trumps that of any other guild, and we owe that to our members.

So, to celebrate one fantastic year, in honor of the guild, and its fantastic members, I introduce to you...


On Tuesday, June 15th, we will have ourselves a party like no other - PvP's, SvS, Tag, Boss Battles, Raids, Sailing - anything and everything a pirate could want to do! We will then end the night with a small party at the Royal Anchor, where we will wrap up the festivities. We would like to invite all pirates to come join us for a day full of pillaging, plundering, and celebrating. We may belong to seperate guilds, but in the end, we are all pirates - and what can keep pirates from a party?

What: PNC's One-Year Anniversary
When: Tuesday, June 15th, 6:00 PM Eastern, until we can't feel our heads anymore!

:dancetl6:Congratz again Del and all the PNC family!! Even the trees quake with excitement!!

Seriously....(yes we pyrates can be serious....sometimes... You deserve kudos in buckets for what you've done..You are one of the few guildleaders(and most of that few are here on POF) that I truly admire and have learned a thing or two from...

Looking forward to share your jubilance, so I'm marking my calender...Crest...I expect some really fine rum lass:buds: .

Seafox/aka Molly O'hara

HECK! I can't be there! I'm on vacation! Of all the bloody times in the world.........argh, I'll think of something mates! Just in case though, Seafox, I'll entrust the rum to you. (oh god, that's such a bad idea....*sigh*)

Aww, thanks seafox! That made me pirate heart glow a bunch ^_^

And don't worry kids - if you are unable to attend the party, thats fine. After all, we need an AFTER PARTY too, eh? ;)

Congratulations to The PNC Crew! :)

Way to go guys!! Though I'm not a member, and have never played with any of you in-game, I'd like to congratulate you all on a great guild. I've been watching you guys here on POF for a long time, and it brings my small, crusty, old pirate heart a lot of joy, that even a small guild such as yourselves can thrive as ye did.

If I'm welcome, I'll try to be at the celebration, and buy a round for ye all, my treat!!!

Yayy!!! Go Del!!!!!!!!!!!

Del Ol' chap! Congrats to bring this wonderful guild back from the ashes. I am proud of you and all of PNC/PIC. This guild has gone through quite a lot. And I am proud of the fact that I once was a member. If only for a brief moment. Congrats PNC!!

I'll be there! Looking forward to it, it's a great thing to look forward after a looooong vacation. :)

I"m on a month vacation I can't make it. Why are all the parties like BBK and yours during vacaiton! *scream* Anyway have fun at the party mate. I hope my soul will be there while I am physically not.

WOO! superrrrr excited! :)

And if you cant make either of the parties, I guess that what the after-party for the after-party for the regular-party is for! lol jk

Remember mates, the party is TONIGHT! Be there, or be square!

A hearty big congratz thar Captain Delmaria on yer 1 year Anniversary. Takes a lot of work to keep a guild going strong. You and yer mates should be very proud of this accomplishment and I wish you and PNC many more.

Cheers and a toast to Captain Delmaria and PNC!

Congratz Del,

Running a guild can be a little like herding cats. It helps if you like cats. So, running a bunch of scruvy dogs helps if you have love of pirates.
