007 Report post Posted October 26, 2004 After seeing many low level players (nothing above 20..) who want to join guilds, i've come up with an idea to help them out... Guilds can have "trainees". These people would be people training to join the guild, either because they are below 20 in everything or because the guild wants to wait to let him/her in.. The guild tag would be the same letters/numbers, but maybe a different color? not sure what would work best there anyhoo i think this would make a great addition to the current guild system. it's a lot like what the Rangers did, way back before official ingame guilds... (if you dont care about oldbie talk, stop reading here ) before joining, you had to go through a series testing and training .. it was very annoying but it was well worth it when i finally got in the guild... and then once guilds were official ingame, we would assign members of ~RA~ to different EL-ers who wished to join... of course, it would be up to the guildmaster to decide if they want trainees or not.. good idea? bad idea? gad idea? bood idea?

Placid Report post Posted October 27, 2004 A bood idea. Could help the newbies get invloved in the community a bit more, and would help with getting to know the game, skills and commands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leeloo Report post Posted October 27, 2004 Different colors? No, it should say "wannabe", only the informed minority will know what the colors mean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
007 Report post Posted October 27, 2004 or the guild tag could go before their name .. or it could be lowercase hm.. but some guild tags have no letters... so maybe it could have a smaller, but still legibal font size... because if everybody who wasnt in a guild yet had "wannabe" slapped on their name busy places like storages would only become more cluttered Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MisanthropicToo Report post Posted October 28, 2004 How about just pumping the wannabe to level 20 then joining? It doesn't take *that* long... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quinticus Report post Posted October 28, 2004 I like the idea...along with training the person the ethics of the guild would be transfered as well. All-in-all it's a plus to the comunity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ogerawa Report post Posted October 28, 2004 Maybe make the tag a little bit smaller. wannabe guild_name those 2 lines in a smaller font. So the name will like taking 2 lines of the smaller font :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fred_penner Report post Posted October 28, 2004 I'd rather not see more text hanging about player's heads... why not incorporate all this info into the "look" command? The only thing we need about their heads is their name... everything else should be displayed when you "look". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
