July/August Newsletter
Hey everyone, sorry I didn't follow through with my plans from last month. We had a family emergency that really messed up everyones plans. But things should be ok now, so I will try once again to get things organized.
First off.. POST! No one has really been posting much lately, and yes I know I'm also guilty. Now that that is out of my system I'll continue.
Over the last couple days of July and throughout August the following updates and additions will be made:
(x)- Religious Forum
(x)- Guild Table of Contents
(x)- NEW guild home page
( )- Archive Forum
(x)- Referral Program
( )- Banner Contest
( )- Guild Advertising Campaign
**Not in order**
I also have a non-guild related project that I'm wanting to do. I'm looking for some 'Staff' to help me with a website I want to create. I'm looking for people interested in doing some research as well as people to help me with HTML and other web based programming. If you're interested and/or want more information, PM me.

June Newsletter
Now that it is summer and I'm not going to be run off my feet between school and work.. (although I have 2 jobs for the summer) I should have a lot more time to start working on this guild again. Theres not much left of June, and I have a pretty busy week ahead of me, so I'll keep the goals for the month short.
If you read the News section, you will see that I have decided (as part of reviving the guild) to do new layouts for everything and make the guild look more attractive.
This leads into a guild banner contest that I will start organizing. I'm estimating that I'll have it ready to release for the beginning of July.
As an attempt to gain more members I am going to figure out and start a referral program. There will be some prizes involved. blaugh
People need to start posting more/again in order for our guild to be successful. Lets see what we can accomplish!

January Newsletter
Welcome to the New Year and a new beginning for some. Many great things have been happening in our guild and many new members. There will be even more going on this year. Ok, I'll stop with the wierd greeting thing.
Well this month I'm hoping to have more interest in some of the guild contests. The Avi contest from around Christmas was a waste of time. I had 3 entrants (2 if I don't count myself) and no one voted so I had to go to the main Chatterbox. All I can say is, Come On People! Support the guild!
We're starting to get a nice collection of RPs now. I'm going to be making a TOC for the RP's so that it will be easier to find ones that have plots or story types that interest you. Please feel free to join as many RP's as you'd like. Just remember to be active! A lot of great ideas have been put into use.
If you have any ideas for anything (contests, rps, discussions, ect), feel free to PM me.
Our goals for this month are:
Reach 45 members (currently 40)
Reach 1100 Posts (currently 943)
And have 15 Rp's (currently 9)

December Newsletter
I have noticed that there is not much activity in our guild. I am hoping this message and its contents will bring everyone around to post again. First of all we now have a guild mule account, s17902. I created the account because I have also posted our first guild contest.
I started an Avi Contest. The winner will get a Brown Magical Giftbox. I know it isn't much, but it's all I can afford right now. In the future the guild funds will be used to buy the prizes.
I have also started a topic to find out what everyone thinks about creating a Religious Subforum. Please go there and post your thoughts.
We are still desperately in need of new Roleplays. There are currently only three. If you have any ideas, please post them. Character and location profiles are also still needed.
Finally if the avi contest goes well we will have enough gold to buy prizes for future contests. If you have any contest ideas please let me know. I am thinking of starting a Guild Lottery too. I will try to post a guild newsletter at the beginning of each month to keep you guys updated. I look forward to seeing everyone in the guild soon.
Your Captain,
