A lot of stuff got discussed at the latest guild meeting:
Guild RPG conventions were discussed. It has been decided that 'seasons' shall not be used as an in-character method to refer to levels, and that no such method is needed. Dying in the game is actually a near-death experience. For handling continuity and official events occuring - the guild storyline will be official for everyone's storyline. Other instances and quests will only be official for personal storylines, as each player does them. Respawns, when they need to be explained, are any of a number of comic book style things: a villain being not quite dead, or having faked their death, or a new villain with the same costume, or any similar explanation.
It has been decided to replace the current rank system with a new system in which there are only a small number of Wardens, but these shall be guild officers with full powers. The first five Wardens are Akini, Issabela, Azaile, Jovil, and Lander. They shall be replacing the Loremasters, and also enforcing a new code of conduct set of rules, which is to be developed.
Inactive members are to be weeded out, and recruiting will become more stringent in the future.
The Circle of Cerise has enquired about becoming our sister guild. It has been decided that the Shield and the Circle will give this a trial run to see how it works.
