You could also decide to join without getting a staff position. But for everyone that wants to join, the chance is larger that our Mighty Tainted Social Group Leader Talmanes allows it.

i read the suggestion board. it doesn't seem like a popular idea. i don't want to join a faction faction. i just want to be neutral. so if there was a neutral not battling anybody or doing anything faction with no need for leadership or storming or anything, i'd be down for that.

You can just not choose a Faction, but I think it'll become more difficult, if you stay neutral.

Nothing really changes when you chose a faction. You don´t have to battle or do anything that you don´t want to do. You get extra possibilities though. When you join a faction you get access to another board where (hopefully) fun things happen. We are all here to have fun, right?

till my daddy takes my T-bird away. why would it become more difficult, ley?

Because everyone wants you to join a Faction. Talking about that, multiple Org Leaders have said that the Light board is more active. But, if there comes a third Faction, I will make sure the Mashadar Board becomes the most active.

i don't think they want me specifically to join a faction. um, and i don't think i'd join one for mashadar. i don't like mashadar. it's scary. like machinchin. i forgot how to spell that, sorry.

It's only scary for it's enemies...

 

So you don't have to worry if you join us.

 

And I want you (and everyone else) to join my Faction, whatever that Faction is.

If that 3rd Faction is created, I would most likely become Storm Leader. Then I could offer you 10 points for joining.

she's not a point slut like some people around here :P

yah, i don't feel right about accepting pay for play.

consider me in shadow faction eclipse, duh *twaps*

Just to be clear, I hadn't stated outright that I wanted it to be 'the Mashadar' faction (sorry leyrann), my main idea was just a neutral faction, like a gray tower kind of thing, but the cool thing would be that in our faction we're so crazy we think the world needs a second breaking. We'd all kinda be like that one Irish guy in Braveheart who's kind of crazy but still awesome.

 

Also, while I personally think it might be fun if I fought in some battles at some point, mainly this 3rd faction would be just for having our own little group and board where we can chill, and spam if you like, or whatever. I just thought it would be cool to mix things up and throw a Ralph Nader into the equation.

 

Cindy, I won't pressure you or nothin, but if you wanna join we'd be glad to have you :)

i will think about it when my brain is not driving under any influence.

consider me in shadow faction eclipse, duh *twaps*

 

I consider you to be the shadow faction

 

Mostly because of the smell

Cindy, you don't have to join a Faction if you don't want to. None of the people from the disbanded Settlers Faction ever joined another Faction (I don't think) and they still come around and post every now and then. There's no pressure from anyone here for you to join one. (Well, except maybe Ley. >.>)

there was more before i demonstrated my inability to grasp mathematical concepts well enough to duel. and that was mostly a don't join my faction, join theirs sorta deal. i like neutrality, but one secret board would be nice. just one litte one. we could put the dungeons there. and all the other cool stuff.

There is one thing I can't find out. How do the special ranks of the Shadow work exactly? It would be useful to know that if we're going to create a third Faction. Can some random Shadowie help me out?

I don't smell! I bathe everytime I come over from SG *nods and goes to bathe for the 18th time today*

Can you explain how the Shadow ranks work, Roka?

no idea how they work now, I doubt it's the same as 5 years ago when I left

5 years ago? Why did you leave at that point, and why did you come back now?

Because he saw how much more awesome we've become amiright?

went to China, no net access, then work and stuff. Besides, I've been a member since 2000, I needed some time off :)

Oh?! Well that's not what I was expecting :P Did you get to do all the touristic stuff like the Great Wall and Tiananmen square?
