ORGANIZATION OF A NEW GUILD: THE DARK KNIGHTS-prospective founder, Calitri

Jul 10, 2005 fordguyinny link
I am organizing a new guild to fulfill three purposes:

1. Advance Characters as quickly as possible.

2. Avoid political interest by not taking sides of any other guild in conflicts, unless they pay huge mothloads of credits.

3. Control any part of space the guild deems necessary to own.

Anyone interested in joining, or having an alt join, contact Calitri in game on Sunday, 10 JUL, any time in the evening.

"1. Advance Characters as quickly as possible."

So, cheat...

"2. Avoid political interest by not taking sides of any other guild in conflicts, unless they pay huge mothloads of credits."

Pansy...

"3. Control any part of space the guild deems necessary to own."

Hehe, yeah...

Hehe.

Uh, that makes no sense. A political interest is one you profit from, so saying that you're avoiding them unless they pay is doublespeak.

Oh a gang, fun. Just stay outta Gray or you'll have BLAK to deal with, and stay outta Itani space or you'll have me and IA to deal with. :D

I'm intrigued by 3). Just how do you propose to do this. I don't recall any guild every trying this with any success.

INM took over sector 10 once.... but that was with massive amounts of lightning mines in a small hole that lead to the station... but that was about it....
Keep in mind this was alpha version as well.

There's no real way to "take over" a sector except to patrol it heavily and attack everyone who passes through.

Hopefully in future versions of the game we'll actually be able to take over stations and set up blockades, so 3) would become a real possibility.

Sounds like the Vipers are gonna have one more set of targets. Fun fun!

Hehe I remember the time SCAR tried to take over helio. Me and the VPRs ended that though. Good times...

In your case, Phaserlight, more targets to run away from after they whomp you.

Sure you did Borb, sure you did...

/me checks to see that his kill count for miners and VPR jumped in the double digits during the time VPR "ended that"... yep, we definitly (1) seriously depressed the number of non SCAR miners in system, (2) came out ahead in the kill counts when VPR did trek all the way to Helios, (3) still have fewer miners in Helios than before due to the added risk associated with mining there.

Another successful VPR op, to be sure!

What I don't get is: with most of the guilds having trouble due to active membership (or lack thereof), this guy's trying to make yet another one?!

And named after Frank Miller's Batman, to boot...

Tumbie, don't talk to me until you hit puberty and grow some balls. I'm tired of your whining and your smack talk.

I'll go toe to toe with you in the ship setup of your choice under the condition that the loser deletes their account and leaves Vendetta. Permanently.

yah, this is something the server does not need, yet another guild with little to know thought put into it.
Jul 14, 2005 Borb II link
Yeah but our miner was able to get a good bit of cargo, and seeing as the goal of VPR is to allow freedom of the traders and miners to trade and mine. I would say it was a good op. Sides for the good first half of the fight it was just me, then back up came and if I member right y'all sued for peace in light of heavy losses. :D

Though I have to admit I loved the idea of taking over a sector, on day when I'm back in BLAK I fully intend to try it.

Let's do it Phaserlight. But I doubt you can resist the urge to run whining from the sector. According to my logs, I've fought you 8 times in the past two weeks: Died once, killed you once, and the other six times you ran away.

I'd say the odds are in my favor. VO isn't gonna miss you.

Glad to hear it. We'll work out the details here:

And if this is any indication:

You'll be the one packing his bags. I'm looking forward to shutting you up for good.

It's fascinating that you're using the duel stats as a way of saying you're a better fighter. I think that's a very unwise move. The duel stats mean nothing.

I totally agree with Martin. who? me? would have owned a lot of us had he used anything else but a bus.
Jul 15, 2005 Phaserlight link
Perhaps we could take this discussion over to the other thread. I don't want to hijack the Dark Knight's new guild thread. I'll be happy to explain why I feel confident I could defeat tumblemonster any day in a fair fight over there.
