To many Guilds-Unions

Post by achmalach »

Wouldn't it be great that there would be a limit on the amount of guilds-unions a server can have?
Then there would be:

* More wars (now there is a serious lack of wars just because like 90% of the guilds don't have enough members)
* More competition between the unions-guilds
* More fun in trading-hunting-thieving

That's why i really hope the castle wars will come soon. Then people will have to combine forces and merge into large active guilds and unions or they will not be able to even try to compete for a castle...

It would be nice to know that each guild has like 30 active members so you can war them anytime :)

Indeed and the simple reason for that is: there are to many.
The good players are scattered over so many guilds that in average you would see each guild has like maybe 1 good player in it... That's the reason why only a few guilds/unions are standing out...

I think that guild should cost way MORE then 500K and they should make it more effective and fun!
That would solve the problems :)

but well i do support that it should take more money to make a guild cause i mean.....everyone has a guild nowadays, its so easy to make one...
If it was harder to make a guild and not evryone could make a guild, there would be less guilds and each would be more fun cause more ppl would be in them making a huge family :D.

It would be good to have like the 12 Great Houses of Silkroad or something like that :D

Then each house is ruled by 6 most powerful members of it.

Then a war between two houses would be a big event :D

Maybe, maybe not, they won't be able to hold all the castles and if they do then other guilds unions will have to combine forces to break that

its not like that on venice.

There are 3 huge unions on venice, Vietz_Bloodz union, H20 union, and China city union. (and like 5 more that are well known but don't have as many levle 80s)

vietz bloodz and h20 go at eachother constantly, pretty much any time of day u can go to donwhang and see a huge job war.

I like it the way it is right now as far as number of guilds/unions. Its gonna be a huge fight when siege war comes out, gonna be so many global spammers and people talking trash that the server will lag, reset, explode.

EDIT: the unions aren't in order by how good they are or anything, so don't flame me, cuz i know there is some immature guy here from one of those unions that would say something.

Only reason IMO why it isnt working right now is because of the many huge ego's there are. There are a lot of high ranked people that want to be guild master. Thats why only a few guilds stand out, mostly simply by the way they are runned.

And well money attracts money, if you are a lvl 75 or so in a guild that has 3 other 7X members, you get a sosun drop. The world suddenly opens up for you, I can imagen.

Well, what about low levels? If it was the case, there couldnt be any low level guild for the peepz to join. And seriously, Silk sucks without having a nice guild.

I think a cool addition would be a Union war function, instead of just a Guild war function.

rather have a goal on why joining a guild since right now the only reason why anyone would is for guildwars rest can be done with friends from your server.
i rather see they change this new job system with forced job for a whole guild.

for example guild leader just pays an amount of gp (large) and gold to switch whole guild to a job. that way you will need to make sure you union has a variety of hunters/traders.

You should have to be level 45 to create a guild and it costs 2 million. I think this would reduce it enough but not to much. :)

Forcing players to work together will only cause more problems and disorganization. Many players will will be guildless to avoid it.

Castle wars? When ever people come together just to be the strongest union or guild, betrayal, corruption, etc. is soon to follow.

Things are ok the way they are now. Some people worked hard to make their guild known. If you see someone's guild/union emblem and either, respect them, hate them, or never heard of them, then they've earned that. It helps create individuality and gives people something to strive for. Maybe someone wants their guild/union to be the most feared or respected on the server. Maybe someone wants their guild/union to fly on the radar or other reasons.

Some people only form guilds to chat with all their friends easier. Since this game is continuously growing, and because of the idea you suggested, there is bound to be people in your union/guild who won't be able to speak the same language. There would be at least 3 different languages being spoken in guild/union chat. Or even worse, the game would be war of the nationalities. All Turks in one union, Germans in another, Americans in one union, etc.

It would also be a big strain on guild leaders trying to make sure rules are followed and people in guild are treated fairly. This would be an even greater strain on the player who is the leader of the union. Forget being legit. There would be no way to monitor it all.

I believe there is a serious lack of wars because 60% of your members are stuck in server traffic or refuse to deal with it.

Guilds suck, 90% of the time everyones bitching, bickering, arguing, talking like their 10 years old and the orange text just looks arse and harder to read than the whispers or party chat. The only reason I'm in a guild is cuz if your not you just get spammed with pop ups all day from people trying to get you into one.

I only talk to a handful of people and that's just how I like it, that's also the reason why there's so many small guilds, not everyone is fussed about big guilds.

One of the very first things my friends and I did was make a guild as soon as we could so that we could talk together easier ... and do stuff together. There have been some ups and downs ... but a good guild is one of the best things about SRO.

Guilds are a BIG help when you are first starting out in SRO ... as a way to share advice and learn from each other when you are first learning to play the game.
