Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yep, we're still a fledgling Guild but with our eyes set on becoming the number one Captain and Crew's Resource, we have to set our standards high.

So, suggestions are welcomed. Keep in mind this Guild's focus, and those suggestions should be made in order to maximize that focus.

I suggest this

Thanks

I think we'd do better remaining separate but work together, all the new captain guilds have unique ideas on how it should be done, potentially this could attract and sustain more captains than a single guild.

We should be like the Confederated States of America, together but individual

Hey? I bet there's Petitions out there aimed at certain features/updates to be done to the Guilds? If so, we should get a list of these petitions for users to sign if they choose too!

*idea*

Certainly there are some larger petitions that we could find and link to in this guild - we don't need a comprehensive list, but the more the better. ^^ We could link them in the Suggestions List sticky.

Since pirula said she'll be keeping an eye on that, it would be great for us to keep that sticky in mind whenever we have ideas about guilds. The one in the CG often seemed to go for many months without edits.

I don't think a list of scammers, hackers, etc. would be helpful. sweatdrop If you come across one, report him/her and move on. Those lists are always outdated because those accounts are usually banned (or otherwise dealt with by the mods). So threats don't usually come from the same account twice, and of course there's no other way to predict where they'll come from in the future, so the lists don't help. ^^;

The mod panel is being glitchy again, but I'll use that as the new banner as soon it start functioning again (:

@MistressPaco

That poll idea seems a bit harsh, no? I don't really know about that. Honestly, even though I run a poll guild, I've never really liked polls all that much because they confuse me when I'm searching for threads sometimes.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yep. All of our ideas and ways are somewhat different. I only started this version because I prefer seeing all the guild-information in a guild rather than in the forums. I'm more comfortable that way. And the mods said they'd only move some of the information from the CG to the forums and that doesn't include any of the guides, except for the two that were stickied maybe.

I have nothing against the other versions, except that I don't exactly side with how they've been made. It might not hurt to post links to them though to let others know about them.

Once this guild is well established, I think it would definitely be beneficial to affiliate with the GGN Moderator's Guild and they've been talking about that themselves.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's been bugging me a bit too. I've been thinking that again, once this guild is really established, we should change our title to something else. I'm going so far as too accept people that used to be Captains, VCs, or crew members too just because they might have their own words to pitch in, even though they won't really be able to prove they were once one of those things.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've signed a few of those petitions! Maybe we could integrate them into the Guild Suggestion- wait never mind, I just read ahead in the Topic Review box and Window already said it (idea stealer xp ). There are some petitions from 04 I think.

I sent Pirula a PM and asked her to review the sticky and let me know which ideas can't be implemented so I can updated it. I took a look at it and I was thinking maybe it'd be better to just almost completely restart it?

Yeah, that might be something you could do in the Captain's Chat forum as a regular list maybe, as long as you can prove they hacked or scammed, etc. Otherwise, I don't really see what it would have to do with this guild. It may not be bad for the Market forum though because I keep a list in my shop of people that have scammed me.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've never really understood "GGN support" to be honest sweatdrop Want to explain your vision of the main forum a bit more Window? XD

As to who should be allowed in, I think we should figure a way to allow people who are seriously considering buying a guild to join, so they can benefit from our experience in their purchase and initial planning; the best way would be to wait for the ability to make public subforums in a private/hidden guild, but as Pirula said it could be a long time before the GGN backbone is health enough to accept major alterations like that. The other solution would be to buy/rent out a sister guild that's open to the public, but hell if I know enough other stuff we could put in there to justify it. That gives me an idea for a suggestion...
