Need ALL of your feedback

Hello Hello Gang!

We’ve got some guild issues to discuss.

For the last two months, we’ve been running without a GM. There haven’t been any problems in doing so, we have a great group of officers, but it’s time to hand out some promotions, and we can’t do that.

So here’s my thought…I can pull Sarah from TEC, and start up a new guild with a name as close to TEC as possible, play around with capitalization or something, and then switch everyone over to the new TEC. The major problems I see in this are 1) Getting name approval (how long does that take anyways?), and 2) If the name goes through, letting everyone know. Not everyone in TEC is here on POF, and I know I don’t have everyone on my friends list in game. Well, between all of our friends lists, I’m sure we have 99% of the guild covered….but it could be kind of a nightmare getting it all together.

So, I want everyone’s input on this, and if you know of someone in the guild that doesn’t come here to POF, let them know to get over here and sign up

I'm fine with reforming as a new guild. I'm happy to use the existing space in my friends list to help keep everyone in guild intact during the transition.
Maybe we could use some creative letter substitution to keep the name similar.

I did hear someone mention we may lose our guild rank. Not sure what that is all about or where to find it. Or if it even exists. Do you know?

In the end, what ever the guild decides will be good as long as I can continue to be a part of it with all of you. You're all too much fun not to poc with.

ps. I will inform Libby and may write her response for her until she gets her account working.

That's what I'm hoping for

So I assume, no contact with Angel. While a missing GM is all I have ever known, I can see where it can make it difficult to run guild matters. I don't have a problem moving to another guild. What happens if/when Ash gets back??

I personally have no idea how long it takes to get a guild name approved. Guess you could check the XD site to see the guilds that are already out there. Worst case scenario you pull Sarah out, and if a name doesn't pan out , get her back in TEC. I guess there is no way to turn a guild over to another pirate.

As for the friends list, guess we would need a master guild list, then have people send the organizer a copy of their friends list. Would be a pain to cross reference, but it is possible. Also people may be able set up a basic account person, or a temp main account pirate to hold a place in TEC to still have access to that list. Ouch my head is spinning.

Just an idea, -if the name reputation isn't that big of deal- would be to use the Dueces group. Would just have to weigh if losing some name recognition, is worth saving a giant headache. I personally don't really pay a lot of attention to guild names anyway, but it may be important to some.


Guild name ideas;
Formerly known as The Elite Cirlce ( too long?? ) .)


Like the idea Sarah of " The Elite Circle Guild"

Oh Blue said "Vote me how you vote." He is at work, so Tandy and Blue say Aye.

[Mr.LoveLocket]

Not part of this guild but i say you should
maybe this
Elite Circle

[Sarah]

No contact with Angel, ash, hunter, et all, and I've given her two months, long enough. I contacted The big D, and as of right now, there is no way to transfer GM status....whatever....SO, thank you all for the feedback thusfar, and we'll keep it up til we reach some sort of conclusion.

Getting everyone over to Deuces is an idea if this doesn't work out, but i SO love our guild name, I want to try all options til we do that.

[John Edgefoote]

Hey Sarah -
I just dont want to lose the fun I have with this group - whatever you decide is cool with me. I have no one on my friends list but TEC and my kids, so it would stink mightily to lose contact!
If I an be of any service, just let me know!

Oh yeah - I tried to use an amusing pun to title this reply, but my tandy-itis apparently acted up!

[GothixGrafx]

A rose by any other name still smells as sweet. Well... some of us probably dont smell too good but it's a great lot nonetheless.

I like the suggestion "Elite Circle"

[Stormsilver]

I'm yesterday new to the guild. I'm for whatever you all decide. It's not the name that makes a great guild, but the people in it.

[azulada]

I am all for it. Don't care what the name is as long as my family is there.
I say we call it "The Gutter Guild" since that is where we all are most of the time lol j/k


FYI...Elite Circle is already taken.

[Sarah]

ROFL AZ

and thanks for the heads up

[davy redflint]

aye sarah just let me know when and where to make the change over.

[gefran91]
