MS Guild Business

[ghost_of_eb]

1) Member List. If you're not on this list and want to be in the FFR guild, say something in this thread. If you're on this list and have decided not to be in the guild, say something here, too, and I will edit your name out. (Note: I stole the original list from Tokzic, so blame him for any mistakes)

1) Tokzic - Niikos
2) Afrobean Afrobeanmage
3) ImEric - evilchickens
4) TonberryKid - BandTonberry
5) OniSplitter - OniSpltter
6) Verruckter
7) banditcom/Ignite - banditcom
8) EB - YingYangTwin
9) Pumble - Kracked
10) emccky - emccky
11) Fallen - TotalWiz or TotalSinner? We should only have one in the guild... (Out if Jason isn't leader. )
12) Vash - Cash0987
13) MM - WizMM
14) Falcon - Fa1c0n
15) Gonzo - MrSkillz
16) Adele - Allanae
17) Chromer - ChromerKun
18) Mal
19) gowereinside - JayZeus
20) Tank - Takamaoka
21) PsychoZeroSkater - IrishTheif
22) hydrojakep - GinAndJuice

Also, if I don't have your IGN listed with your name yet, or if I somehow put the wrong IGN with FFR sn, tell me in this thread and I will edit it.

Once we're almost sure of the player list I'll edit in the price we need to pay per member to make the guild that big. For now, I'm not putting much effort into this. :P

2) Leader elections. If you want to run for leader and aren't here, tell me. If you are here and don't want to be, also tell me. When voting for leader, bold the name so we know for sure you mean it, and do try to give some reasoning. Try not to switch your votes all around.

For the record, I vote Afrobean because we stick together like that and I got his back, plus we've always kept up a sharing relationship in-game, and I think he could continue this as guild leader. Plus, he's usually the last to give up on games. The main problem wouldn't be if the leader screwed us over, it'd be if the leader got bored with MS and quit, leaving us unable to add to the guild.

Niikos - 1 (himself)
Banditcom/Pat - 6 (psycho, banditcom, Robby, Jake, Pumble, emccky)
AfrobeanMage - 4 (eb, Eric, Oni, gower)
Chromer
Oni - 3 (Afro, gonzo, Vash)

3) Rank names. Again, bold your vote (you only need to say the first couple rankings or a description of them, since they're kinda long) and give reasoning if applicable. Note: I've left out some for several reasons (ranging from just not gonna happen to the person who said them later admitted they were joking), but mostly just to make the choices easier to pick from and save space in this post, which will likely get huge. If you want me to re-add one that you really wanted to vote for, just tell me and I'll edit it in, I guess.

Oh, and I vote for Arbiter, etc as long as Serf is used rather than Peasant, because Serf seems a tad less derogatory.

Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Omega, Subordinate - 2 (Britney, Tim)
Arbiter, Imperator, Patrician, Plebian, Peasant/Serf - 8 (eb, Afro, eric, psycho, Oni (that bandwagoning wp;f!), Vash, Pumble, emccky)
AA, A, B, C, D
Leader, 1st Class, 2nd Class, 3rd Class, Newbie
Oni, Heavy, Standard, Light, Beginner - 1 (Adele)
Molto Vivace Master, CIA Raver, X-Dreamer, Breaking the Commoner, Peon
[Pirate King] Atomsk, [Bounty Hunter] Spike, [Ronin] Kenshin, [N.O. Channel] Naota, [Peon] Keitaro

I THINK WE HAVE A WINNER HERE ALREADY ROFL

4) As for things like the guild emblem, I say we should wait until guilds are actually released before we decide on that. It definitely won't be factored into the original cost of joining the guild, and I know I won't be able to decide on how much I want an emblem until I see the possibilities we have to choose from in making one. It's probably going to be quite limited, given that we're dealing with freaking Wizet after all. Thus, that kind of discussion can wait, but go ahead and start talking about it if you want.

And as for topic rules: stick to discussion of the MS guild and MS guild only. Any other MS talk goes in the stickied MS topic. Also, it'd be really nice if you could number the points in your post for easy reference by me so I can easily keep tallies of votes. For example, a post might like this:

2) I vote for Afro because he's my e-husband.
3) That Arbiter name thing seems pretty snazzy!
4) I definitely don't wanna get the emblem right away, cuz I'm not rich like some of you. When we do get it, I agree it should have blue/orange/white in it as the main colors, to rep FFR.

Get it? Got it? Good! Now gogogo with the posting.

[Afrobean]

(stealing basic form from above even though I'm already listed LOL)
1) I wanna join. IGN = AfrobeanMage
2) I would vote for noah, but he doesn't want it. I have little interest in it, so I'm gonna throw my vote to Oni.
3) That Arbiter name thing seems pretty snazzy!(I agree with eb here)
4) I definitely don't wanna get the emblem at all. It's a waste of 5 mil, really. It's not even like we can use the FFR dancing guy logo or anything.

[ImEric12]

1) Joining for sure. IGN = evilchickens
2) I'm gonna vote Afrobean. I've known him the longest out of any of the choices, and trust him the most.
3) Arbiter sounds coolest.
4) I'd say no emblem. Like Chris said, giant waste of 5 mil for just plain colors.


I'll be gone until Monday night. =\

[PsYcHoZeRoSk8eR]

1) I wanna join. IGN = IrishTheif
2) I waiting to vote but so I don't get a phantom, Banditcom/Pat
3) That Arbiter name thing seems pretty snazzy! I was thinking earlier today and came up with Monarch as a cool title, but I got nothing else to go with it so =\.
4) I'm all for getting an emblem, but like eb said, we should wait and see what they are about before we want something that we can't have.

[gonzo4life44]

1) Im so gonna be in this; Gonzo4life44 IGN : MrSkillz
2) Its a hard decision due to the fact that there is more then one person. I would like For Bandit to be because he is Very active on both FFR and MS. But to me, to be a leader, you gotta be nuber 1 in ranking. Squeeks doesnt look like hes gonna be running for the spot so im gonna vote Oni
3) I vote the DDR method cuz we are a DDR site, therefor, we gotta keep it real.
4) I agree with afro. Its stupid. The guild it self is gonna cost enogh, we dont need to add another 5 mil.

[OniSplitter]

1) I wanna join, Correction to what you stated above, my IGN is OniSpltter. There is no "i" in Splitter.
2) -__- Wow.... tough one. Definately between Banditcom or Afrobean... Well I hate picking sides but I'm going to say Afrobean because of the whole shared account thing. Not saying a shared account is bad, but it may not work well as a leader. =/ Sorry to bandit, Niikos, and Chromer... no hard feelings.
3) I'm going to hop on the bandwagon here and go with the Arbiter thingy
4) Well kind of a stupid question, on the list there are 21 members, while to get an emblem you need at least 25. After doing the math I would say we SHOULD get one once we get 25 members, as it will only be 200k per person.... though this may be expensive to others, I'll leave this one up to you guys.

Extra Notes:
1) I didn't realize anyone would support me as a leader but since it is clear that they are, I have no problem being put on the candidate list. Just one thing though, I really don't want people to vote for me because I am the highest level. For one this does not make someone a leader and second of all banditcom will be passing me up soon because he levels faster and trains more often.

2) Damn I got so caught up typing all that that I forgot what I was going to put here, if I remember I'll be sure to post it. ^_^;;

Edit: My first post outside of the Maple Story sticky... *shivers* The outside world of topics that move down the page when they become less active scares me T_T

[Chromer]

I refuse to vote until EB puts my rank ideas in the choices as well.

[KiwiChick]

1) I wanna join. IGN is Allanae. :3
2) Well, seeing as I only kind of know the people who want to be leaders, and I've only just started MS (....lvl 30, spearwoman >_>... ), I'm going to have to come back to this one.
3) Personally I'd rather have the Oni hierarchy, because if this IS FFR afterall. Alhough, it's not going to bother me much anyway.
4) No emblem. Unless others can see it outside of the guild there isn't much point. We can't have the dancing guy either. And really, I don't want to up the price of my membership....mmm mesos.

[vashthestampede0987]

1)I'm already in
2)Oni
3)Arbiter
4)Uhhh waste of money much. Not many people would want it if it will cost them a bajillion mesos.(Especially the poor ones)

[Tokzic]

WTF EB, way to jump the gun. This was supposed to wait until Friday. Whatever though.

Also, you didn\'t incorporate the second choice deal to break ties.

Anyway, here\'s my votes:

1) You know I want in this.
2) As I feared, this is turning into \"pick your favourite high level character\", but meh, I\'m still voting for myself. Afro\'s in it just because he wants to see how he fairs, Oni\'s in it because some people are supporting him even though he didn\'t want to be leader in the first place, I haven\'t had enough contact with Chromer, and though I have complete trust in banditcom, I\'ve barely ever even communicated with Pat. In fact, the only people who are actually fully enthusiastic about being leader are myself and banditcom. As such, my second choice is banditcom.
3) Even though it looks like the historic ranks are going to win here, I still like my Greek Alphabet idea best. Historic ranks are a good second.
4) Guys, you\'re still looking at it the wrong way. Everyone\'s thinking, \"Five million oh noes!\" In reality, this is going to be 150-175k each. Not a bad deal for a graphic next to your name (if that\'s what it does). I am for the Emblem.

[Afrobean]

150k for a graphic not relating at all to FFR sounds like a waste of meso to me.

And on a related topic: Honestly, I wouldn't mind Jason as leader, but he obviously doesn't mind handing out his password to lots of people. That's what I don't like. If he was leader, he could easily give his password to someone I might not trust or would rather not have power over the guild.

EDIT: Oh and in the event of a tie, we can just do a quick re-vote with only the finalists as voting options. No big deal.

[-Fallen-]

I refuse to be a part of the guild unless Banditcom is elected leader.
Seeing how that is not going to happen, I am not participating.
Remove me please.

Don't you think that's a little ridiculous?

[-Fallen-]

Not really. I'd explain it but I can't. I guess I just like Jason better than all of you and he is fit for the job.

[Omeganitros]

Cut the crap, ladies. I did not enjoy deleting a page of posts. Moogy, I will lock this thread as soon as this Guild crap is cleared up, and in the mean time stop trolling. Fallen, stop falling for the trollbait. Thank you.

ROFL yea I love giving out my password, which is why I had to change my password on every place I have my name registered to something else, as I could not change my password on MS (since I entered gibberish for the secret questions). However I could in fact have MS send me a gibberish password in replace of my current one at anytime (that's what they do for the forgot your password.. change it to some gibberish and send you that one to your registered email). Of course, I didn't know this until after I had changed all my current registrations... XD

1) Uhh I'm in there already. Put /Ignite.
2) 1st Choice: Me/Pat
2nd Choice: Niikos (only other person taking actual interest in being leader)
3) Arbiter, etc (with Serf)
4) Yes. An emblem will show that we are a larger guild, not some noob guild made up of the 6. Plus it only costs 150kish extra per person. That's little, even in your 30s...

We'll have a loan system anyways.... At least, that's my plan. No interest either, unless you plan to pay the money over a period of 3 months+.. lol..

[-Fallen-]

Whatever anyways ignore my retarded post.

Jason obviously gets my vote, I'd just like to see him leader cause he's obviously quite older than all of us and doesn't spaz out or throw fits like most people in command would.

EDIT: I guess I don't like the fact that everyone or nearly everyone liked the fact that Jason would be "leader" but then you all started with sharing account bullshit and all that crap and suddenly now Afro and Noah are nominating themselves or each other? No offense guys, but no.

[ghost_of_eb]

3) I vote the DDR method cuz we are a DDR site, therefor, we gotta keep it real.

Be specific. The AA,A,B one or the Oni,Heavy,Standard one? o__O

It seems the voting is down between Afro and Oni so far. If Jason is to have much of a chance, the dozen or so people who haven't voted need to get on that.

Also, I think we've pretty much instalynched Jason's ranking idea, so he's already won something. If like, anybody else votes for it, I say we just close voting for that and focus on who will lead. Oh, and to Tokzic, it isn't just voting for our favorite high level person. Maybe as far as Oni goes, I dunno, but I'm voting for Chris because I know and trust him. We get along and he doesn't pick up my items when I'm trying to make a funny item arrangement like SOME of you always do. Jason would be my second choice, but I'm semi-obligated to stick with Chris. :P

Also, and I was just thinking of this, having a priest be the leader makes tons of sense because then they can use door to meet with guild members. So that gives Oni and (eventually) Afro a bit of an advantage (unless Chris wants to be a jerk and not meet with people). I'd still vote Bandit before Oni just because I know him better/he's more of a regular on FFR, so if Chris decides that he's had enough votes and wants to drop out (cuz it's not like he was gung ho about leading, right?), that's where my vote will go.

[hydrojakep]

Why am i not on the list noah?
Loser.

And i vote banditcom

[gowereinside]

1) I'll join IGN = JayZeus
2) My vote goes to Afrobean because when I had a question he had an answer and he has been a 3 year vet. and the FFR guild should have a vet. as a leader.
3) Emblems. The way I see it, most guilds will have one and the ones without will seem "noobesh"
