OK, so what are we going to call our guild? I can create it if no one else wants to (that is, if anyone doesn't trust me to lord over you all like a king, nay, a GOD, MUHAHAHAHA!).

I don't know if I'm comfortable with you being the leader Lobster, I heard something about you being a molester?

EDIT: On topic. I believe the knights templar used latin. Latin for gamers with jobs is roughly 'Ludiuses abs officia' or 'Ludii abs officia'. Neither have a particularly nice ring to them though.

I thought you don't play subscription based games Lobster.

Isnt that necessary to create a guild?

You decided to subscribe to this one?

Just curious because I'm still on the fence about this game. (and the fence is spiky.. and hurts) Aren't I noisy with questions?....(oh man, this is a question too...)

How does the guild membership work with the much more 'disposable' nature of characters in HGL? Would be nice if we could get accounts added instead of just toons.

I'm assuming that's not the case, so could you please invite Librarian and Zillah when you get a chance?

I'll be adding people based off the Hellgate names list. If You're not on, not a problem, I'll catch you tonight. That is, of course, if it doesn't allow me to send invites to those not on the list.

I'll be starting the guild with my character "Sephirah", as she is farthest along.

Doh, I guess I don't get to molest you guys after all. Damn, I was hoping I could play guild leader for once. Oh well, Seph is more involved than I am anyway. Invite me, Seph! I'm Pathe.

Irongut, I went for the lifetime subscription. I was on the fence for a while and decided to bite the bullet more or less on a whim. I don't regret it so I guess I made the right choice. All I was sure about was that I didn't want to go for a monthly subscription, where I could pay and pay and pay and then suddenly have nothing to show for it if I stopped paying.

Lobster, thanks for explaining. It was just curiosity on my part because I am very interested in the game. Knowing your perspective on the monthly subscription business model from previous discussions, I was very impressed that you might've purchased one based on your experiences with Hellgate:London. It says a lot...

It's like stamping the Hellgate box with a big red "LobsterMobster Pincher of Approval."
(If you market that, I want royalties!)

They did say that if you cancel, all your subscription stuff just goes into an inactive state, and pops back same as it was whenever you reactivate.

When you get tired of running through the same ol subway tunnels you can comeback to Eldain where we started playing with a Balrog last night.

Yeah, methinks they need to rework the chat box so it's a little less obtrusive. Maybe then I wouldn't mind keeping it open all the time.

I'm not sure that sitting on the fence for a few months and then taking the plunge on a whim really qualifies as a Pincher of Approval... But I am enjoying it. Also, to me, I didn't exactly subscribe. I paid for full access. If the lifetime subscription wasn't available, I wouldn't have gone for, say, the 6 months for $50.

On this one, I think you really should try it for a while and make up your own mind.

Guild up! GWJ has sent out invites to everyone on the list. See the Hellgate Names topic to post yours there if you haven't already.

Also, because guild stuff is not really finished, there is no popup telling you that you've been invited unless you are online. So check your chat box to see. If you posted, you've been invited, just type "/gaccept" in the chat box. We've got 5 people in the first 10 minutes of guild activation.

Yes, you do! Unless you don't like me =P

*grumbles something about sending ~10 unanswered messages*

They also changed it so that your chat window hides when you die or zone. You have to then close it and reopen it to get it back.

That term is completely lost on me. Wikipedia suggests I've been assigned to kitchen duty?
