Do you like guild packages?  And, if so, how many people do you think the guild should have to receive one?

I always look for guild packages when joining a server
They're nice, but not needed in my opinion
Can't stand guild packages
Prefer for it to be 5 people to receive guild package
Prefer for it to be 10 people to receive guild package
More than 10 to receive guild package

I play the same places over'n over. My only initiative to play is to find cards, level up, and sell to the public. Over'n over.

I agree with Yusi. Dunt poor soul her ):

I think we can categorize people.

The WoE Elites

- People who "bande" (harhar French thing) together for PvP/GvG/BG Events
- Highly Competitive
- Lots of trolls in this category
- Dramatizers

The Socializers

- People who play RO to party and socialize
- No exact goal other than friend-making / gaining experience
- Some dramatizers

The Suppliers

- People like me who play to get rich / mark the economy in some way
- Love to grind and vend
- Love to be fully equipped to "show off" their equipment / hoard of items
- Knowledgeable of the game, but may not be the best PvPers
- Not dramatizers

The Kawaii-Mad Hatters

- People who amass hats and strive to have the best collection
- Love to quest, esp. for hats
- Always demanding new hats
- Not dramatizers, unless they're Socializers, too

The Trolls

- People who may or may not be good at WoE/PvP, but think they are in either case
- People who play to ruin others' fun and get off on it
- Lazy people. Some WoE Guilds aren't lazy, but if they're trolls, they'll def' be begging for excessive rewards in BG or something
- Always trying to change a server's goal to adhere to them i.e. if it's a Kawaii Hat server, they'll demand it be more WoE-based
- Huge Drama Whores

Thoth

its like horoscopes and personality tests. many people fit multiple categories and the lines blur.
it should be possible for a server to suite all of these at once, the officials have had all of these. the main barrier seems to GMs who only fit one/two categories and are unable to accommodate the others, or simply reject them.

where would people who like epic pvm parties fit into that? last server I knew of that had that was eternityro years ago, so its understandable if you havent seen that part of the game. people would publicly advertise parties to go places impossible to solo, and if the players didn't know their class they had to learn fast or the others would force them out. this only seems possible on a low rate, and increases the general skill level of the player base.

Of course, there's a grey area, but that's the main idea really.

Also,

Quoteso its understandable if you havent seen that part of the game

Any more obnoxious? I've played for minimum six years, I've been around before Thor and Nameless, back when AD and EDP were sacred in WoE and people weren't using 3k AD/WoE. I was around when people had huge parties to Bio, back when Anubis didn't exist, neither did BG nor WoE: SE.

It's really annoying to see you talk down to people you don't even know. Seriously. Stop it.

Wrong topic, but one thing that ruined RO is people who live in the stone age of a stone age game.

She doesn't live in teh 'stone age' of the game, she is simply stating that she has played for a long time.  And thats your opinion on what ruined RO.  There isn't 'one specific' thing that has 'ruined' the game.

Usagimimi

I'm saying I have experience, unlike what Thoth was insinuating about me.

Also, Yuzo, seems you don't have experience in basic comprehension / analysis. Did you take Workplace-leveled courses, or are you a drop-out or something? Rather, even dropouts wouldn't fail that hard /sorry

Best of wishes to you in your future education- and character-wise. No sarcasm intended; I truly wish you'll better yourself so we won't have to deal with you on welfare or something later on.

Why don't you add another category to that list of yours? The category of people who post on forums god-tier style who don't participate in woe (or pvp?). These are the type of people who fire the "WoE Elites" up by chatting about their vast knowledge of RO, e.g. like what you see on kawaii-desu-hat servers which people try to woe on.

Usagimimi

You add it if you want. Never said those were set-in-stone categories.

I also forgot the nolifers. Hum. But I guess that's an extreme version of a Supplier.

Its the ultimate category, it mixes the annoying ego of a woe elite, insanely active on the forums (socialiser), they troll with their "I'm better than you" style of typing and they generally either don't play RO or just sit in town displaying their hats.

And that is the type of person I really hate. It is the reason I left my previous server because there an insane amount of them (like never seen before).

btw, if you haven't noticed, I sometimes fit in the troll category  :o

people who pull the "senior citizen" card aren't impressing anyone. they often like to say that they are better than everyone else because they've been around longer, or somesuch.
in places filled with people like this, arguments and examples can be amazing.
time does not always bring Alzheimer's, or wisdom. I'd say death is a pretty safe bet though.

People who pull the troll category isn't impressing anyone either, just makes you look like a total douche who has no life except to sit here and bring other people down because you find it 'amusing' when usually you just look like a total jackass who isn't welcome on forums.

List is so true :D

For the guild packages, I think they're a good idea. But only modest ones. Battle Manuals, basic equips which you can NPC buy, and enough supplies for 3/4 WoEs.
Thinking of making your own RO PServer?
Read this first.
