Coaster

A messenger is sent to both respondents, acknowledging their desire for a meeting and assuring they will be contacted soon.

*Posts are made throughout various boards across the Fringe, mainly the nation capitals*

For hire! Mercenaries in the coming conflict! We will write up a contract and keep to it! Dwarf, Human, or otherwise, we will fight for you!!!

Contact Felix or Caine of the Free Folk for a meeting.

There's certainly more practical, rewarding, and entertaining ways to gain "infamy" then what you've laid out here. You've described one particular method well - but what you advise against is in itself a way to becoming "infamous". Good guide anyway. 

*The notices begin reappearing on notice boards across the Fringe*

((We're back. Recruitment In-Game only.))

Those who have reservations because of numerical superiority, there's always a way to make up for numbers in RP. This is a good idea.

legalize weed and also every other drug, outlaw government law institutions, impeach and convict obama for war crimes!!

im not kidding though

*birds are sent out*

You are all denied. Thank you for your patience. 

((No recruiting until 4.0 or later on we've decided except in game. Re-apply then on the new thread that will go up if you still have an interest)

I guarantee footage of massive pvp battles with 150+ players like the Battle for the Dreadfort get the server much more traffic, applicants, and garner more interest then a 2 minute "LoTC with me" video or a fly by of some town which requires no more effort then pressing f1 and flying over someones build. The Media Teams problem is not that they are human, or flawed or whatever, it's that they try to cater to the already existing playerbase instead of reaching out to new bloods on youtube with **** that will actually catch their damn attention (I.E BIG PVP BATTLES, COOL RP EVENTS [aka not ******* weddings and tavern bullshit]) 

idk

*Begins the long process of screening and picking applicants*

((As Chump said, it's been kind of slow because of IRL commitments and whatever the **** I do in my free time but we'll get to it soon when i ditch the alcoholism  some time))

*A response is posted below a notice*

Hire some of my men and you can get as many as you need for cheap. Some of the best fighters you'll find around and I think you'll be pleased to see they don't have those pesky morals that most men have. We've got our own equipment and training, just show the boy and we'll keep him safe.

Anyone who was here in Aegis and isn't an Asulon/Anthos scrub should understand that it was better in Aegis when people could pretty much do what they wanted. It was 10000% more fun. In Aegis you didn't really see the elves getting raided that much and when they did they didn't complain about it because of ((muh rp)) because conflict is a part of rp and they dealt with it like everyone else. If your nation is capable of being crippled and laid to waste by a group of 5 bandits and you literally cannot find any way to get rid of them through RP or otherwise you shouldn't be a goddamn nation. 

Aegis rules >>>>>>>>>>>>> w/e we have now

i wish for a return to simpler times!!

Sorry! It looks like you've been outbid, unless you have a higher offer?

It should be noted that wars/battles count as campaigns! Jobs are defined as raids/robberies/kidnappings! 

1-30 men are available for you to hire! The price is 100 per man for a single job, and 500 per man for the entire campaign!

Money is money, and a contract is a contract, past relations don't mean anything!

A letter is sent to Prince_Snow_Elf of the Princedom_Of_Fenn

Greetings sir! It appears to me you have a war about to happen! As such I would like to offer the services of myself and my fellows as mercenaries in your army! We are well equipped and good at things that involve murder and terrorizing populaces! We will do anything!!! But be quick, this offer is for a limited time only, while supplies last! 

If you don't hire us, someone else will!

If this offer interests you, contact us through letters! Again, be quick, supplies are limited!

Deep within the woods of the Fringe there exists a group of individuals, banded together by their desire to be free, to do as they wish. Some call them bandits, others dub them brigands and thugs - but there is no official name for this group, no face at its head. 

Purpose: 

To obey no laws but ones own, to make a living and prosper however one wishes to do so. To offer a safe haven and like minded folk to those who wish to live the free mans life.

Work:

The kind of work one will be involved in upon gaining membership varies widely, but would probably be considered unscrupulous to outsiders and "illegal" to the totalitarian governments of the land.

Joining:

*A very simple, badly scrawled note is left on various message boards in Vekaro, the Cloud Temple, Alras, and other smaller hovels and villages. It reads:*

"Those who wish to join this brotherhood of free peoples should leave their intention posted on this here board. Keep it simple, you'll be contacted eventually. To maintain the safety of our people, this group is relatively exclusive so as to keep out spies and halfhearted amateurs."

((Just kinda post on this thread. This is just for 3.5 mostly, but the group will continue in 4.0 after an updated thread and member purge. Anyone is free to post here. If you like serious outlaw RP that's not too serious, this might be for you. Think Aegis and early Asulon banditry.))

()nice QUINTUPLE post SPAMMER__) 

long e leben doe toeuatonu iorden

good effort but i object to some of this content!!!

WOW

WOW

I forgib you Gayus.

Also he is right. As fun as wars are, in Anthos, the ones that were actually large scale and lasted in peoples memories were usually fought most viciously OOCly. People are very capable of, and often times are, assholes to eachother - especially when their pride is on the line. I don't recall this being as much as a problem in Asulon or Aegis, from my memory there was indeed a lot more cooperation. An example is the "Great Bandit War" between myself and Wrath in the beginning of Asulon. Not many people know this but that conflict was entirely preplanned, and made for the sole purpose of getting some publicity for our niche (bandit villains) as well as giving people some better RP. 

I feel like I can comment on this because I was one of the main perpetrators of OOC hate that stemmed from IC conflict, it is very easy for people to dislike eachother over this game as petty as that sounds. I genuinely hated Mirtok and company when the Blackmont - Teuton War reached its zenith, or the period of time people refer so romantically as the best conflict/series of battles Anthos had seen so far. 

Wars should be promoted; in a way they are the lifeblood of this server, and I can pretty much guarantee that videos on youtube of epic battles with hundreds of participants garner far more applicants then three hours of tavern RP. Because of this, wars should not only be promoted but much more diligently regulated. It is strange to see how wars see far less supervision and attention then other aspects then the game (i.e villain applications, rules regarding raids/pvp, etc.. etc...) when it is arguably the most important for server growth. 

Just my thoughts.

homie.

((Dont be ***** to eachother thats not gangster))

((i never thought id see the day... stop children you bring me great shame.))
