So I tried working through this with Llir last night but I had to log off due to the time. My account for some reason doesn't receive benefits from voting. I believe Llir came to the conclusion that it's something wrong my guy in game, not between the websites and LoTC, as he tried to add votes artificially but my account did not register them.

OOC Minecraft Name: Jtheo2016 Timezone: EST Skype: stealersfan1997 Anything you'd like us to know?: I will be online fairly irregularly; I have an incredibly busy schedule this year. IC Name: Theopold Adelban Age: 23 Race: Human Gender: Male Alignments: None Skills: Aspiring Farmer, Chef (however, I do require further training in these areas), and swordsman. Anything you'd like us to know?: I earned my experience in battle through guarding a major city, thus my tactical skills are limited. Additionally, a run in with a goblin left me without one of my eyes, thus I still need to adjust to my craft.

((I'm not insulting his roleplay capabilities; I've never roleplayed with him and thus cannot judge him. However there are already quite a few pirate factions and he does not seem to have put much thought into his post. His post was very quickly hashed out and lacks important detail. And if he can garner support, great for him, but both his last post for the same guild and this post have lacked detail and care and failed to garner any form of support. I am not putting him down, I am pointing out that it might not be a good idea for him to start a guild without enough thought. For example, he could've just edited his previous post which had plenty of applicants, but instead made a brand new post and didn't even think of a name for this new pirate guild.))

((How long have you been here? The lack of detail put into the guild seems to suggest you don't know how guild pages work and how thorough they are, so it's safe to assume you're pretty new.))

((Perhaps it would be wise to merge with another pirate guild rather than create another one. You seem new to the server and sometimes it's better to get a feel for the server before creating a group.))

I would rather see a large player coalition of protagonists versus "special-snowflake" antagonists. Many people say "player run" and others say "administration run" (granted the administration run is a small minority) regarding both antagonists and protagonists leadership hierarchies. A proper balance should be established of the two; there should be a GM dedicated to the protagonist and a GM dedicated to the antagonist (or possibly two GM's for each, the specifics don't matter at this point). The actual leadership positions should fall into the hands of the players themselves, however there should be a direct protagonist GM adviser that can plan events and such with the Administrative team and the antagonist GM adviser. Initially the groups should be formed by GM's, but the reigns should be handed to players eventually. For example, say we have a corrupt mage state attempting to conquer the common folk. The opposing protagonists could be a warrior based group without special powers that have a longstanding hatred for this mage state. This is merely an example, but what I'm trying to say is that there needs to be a very STRONG difference between both the antagonists and protagonists, which the last few have failed to do as there hasn't been a protagonist since Aegis. The last antagonist was up against a chaotic-neutral population of Anthos, whereas the arguably more successful (as far as entertainment) antagonist of Aegis (the Undead) directly contrasted with the ideal Ascended, whom were essentially beings selected by a god (Aengul technically). To summarize; there should DEFINITELY be a protagonist that directly conflicts with the antagonist and it should be run by players (though with dedication/assistance from the administrative team). There also needs to be distinct differences in views of both the antagonist and the protagonist so people can pick sides and effectively become invested in whichever side they choose.

A wood elf speaks directly to the wealthy man. "I may be interested in farming. What would be the pay and benefits?" he asks aloud.

It's already been accepted lore. This is just the event introducing them. And while I respect your opinion, maybe don't always share opinions like that, as to be honest, somewhat hurts feelings when someone has worked really hard on a project that is well liked by others just to hear, "I don't find this feasible/interesting. . ."
