something that concerns me...

[Riskae]

Alright, so for the past 2 months I've been making agreements and talking to people about revamped.

Almost everyone is going to be a warmonger or some type of asshole.

About 3/4 of the people I've talked to have been like "Oh yeah we'll raid them until they submit then we'll take over the province"
Theres even a group of people (you know who you are ) who are trying to control all potion making and weapon enchanting, if you don't agree to them and let them control production, they'll raid you.

Seriously guys, what the fuck? Why has everyone just turned into an asshole all of the sudden?

I'm personally offended for a couple of reasons. For one thing, this is a real stab in the back since I tried to help your burgeoning nation with the knowledge of a potential aggressor. Now, I find your spin on this story completely ridiculous. We do not want to restrict production. We also don't plan on any interventions with trade within a nation. We only wish to have a factor with trade between nations and individuals. We do not want to be violent, we just want to be regulatory. The benefit of being within the guilds trade agreement is easier trade through guild centers of trade and the advantage of a larger network of alchemists and enchanters to request ingredients and advice. Another point I would dispute is that we would raid others. We would never bring these agreements onto a town or nation. The issue is purely with the traders. We wouldn't say attack a town of the UR if a member was attempting to trade outside of our trade agreement we wouldn't attack the town but we may:

• Interrupt trades in progress.
  
• Ambush caravans.
  
• Specifically steal from the offender.
  
• We might use embargoes and other trade restrictions as a method to address the issue of an offender.
  

Those that are in the guild or have a special agreement with us have access to many traders and ingredients that those that do not. Do not think of us as pirates or "assholes". We are Mages, and Traders. We only wish for peace and good business. Now I have to do some homework and such.

Edit: (Since the Mage Guild will be run by a council of 6 we shall have a vote about this issue as our first order of business once the council is founded and we have our first session.)

Trying to decide if I should join your guild or start my own counter-guild...

pav, sometimes I wonder the same thing -.-

btw, bowser only speaks for himself atm, the mage guild technically does not exist nor can any of their standards be officiated without future council agreement.

yay alright because I really like the idea of a mages guild, just not some of the ideas I've been hearing about it

All non guild members should stop talking about the a non existing guild that no one said anything about and nothing has been planned for yet past the lore. *rage face* So for you worried people, nothing is decided! End of story.

Just to clear some shit up. I said I will be a "warmongerer". A very mild one at that.
Not my nation, for I am not in a position where I may advocate war. That task is left to someone else.

I hope that whatever I choose to do on Revamped becomes successive. But, the more you all fail, the more I may succeed. Just saying.

[asdfasdflkjty911]

Bowsers ideals humor me, like anyone's going to allow him to control blaze spawners, nobody will allow that not would it work. There's always ways to get in somthin in the nether. Bowers idea of mass control sounds like the baddies in RAGE.

[Sir Prize]

I think you misunderstood it. He doesn't want to control. Only to regulate. That means that anyone who is not in the guild is free to do whatever, but someone within the guild is forced to follow regulations, however, they also have a sure chance of scoring a trade.

Now, this is a bit off-topic though. But thought I'd explain that for you.

[bowser956]

I have been asked by council members to refrain from saying any more. Could we get a lock for this thread for metagaming?

You're the one speaking about your Mage guild that shouldn't exist.

Yes, locking it now.
