(A)narchists

[Korr]

(A)narchists wish to show their might.

Faction: Last Alliance (yes I know this is an unplayable faction, through other posts I will elaborate upon this topic)
Prevailing Deity: Valigan Thirdborn
Tag: (A) "Toon" (A)

Members: n/a. All (A)narchist toons are available to play by any member of the (A)narchists

Conduct:
1 - (A)narchists believe everyones opinions and thought should be heard and dealt with accordingly
2 - (A)narchists will obey rules/regulations/decisions of Neversummer Server and its DMs excepting Conduct 1, in which if there is a major issue with a player they must relinquish their identity to any requesting DM. Guild action will be taken and I must be approached for such.
3 - (A)narchists will strive to bring down the ordered structure of the alliances and collaberations of the factions of Atheria
4 - (A)narchists will not enter Neversummer City with the intention of destroying, disabling, or otherwise doing harm to its citizens
5 - (A)narchists may make temporary alliances with whomever they please to further their endeavor in Aetheria.
6 - (A)narchist tagged toons will never be asked to delete or stop playing a character THEY made, even if no longer within the guild. The exemption to this is if the password has been changed(or security enabled) so that members of the (A)narchists can no longer access it. (ie: Its yours but its everyones, this does not limit you from removing any equipment you achieved for said character(s) although reprocussions will be made if items given to the character(s) from other members have been removed from the (A)narchists guild)

Enemies:
Mystral Ascendency
Shadow Legion
Ragnars Kin
Ancient Ones
The Circle
Northern Coalition

Allies:

Bio:
(A)narchists from the Last Alliance are in constant struggle between making a place in whatever new home they have chosen between the other factions of Aetheria and dissolving the alliances and factions of Aetheria. Each member of the (A)narchists is of a like-mind, as such each member of the (A)narchists will be allowed access to each character of (A)narchy. This holds for a high responsibility for and between each member of the (A)narchists, for without explicit knowledge the actions of one more-so than any other guild can be held against other members of the guild. With the struggle to bring (A)narchy to all of Aetheria most actions will be condoned by fellow (A)narchist members, this however comes at a price as mentioned before. One day from the chaos of (A)narchy brought upon the lands of Aetheria the Last Alliance will step forward to bring order to their reclaimed land.

Etc:
(A)narchists are now in active recruitment.

Open invitation to the NS4 staff to have access to the (A) forums, just send me a PM.

[DM_Kim]

Thank You

It has been said to me that my original post here is somewhat unclear. If you would like to join (A), please send a PM to me here on forums, or find me in game. You will be able to tell that its me because I will be able to refer you to the (A) forums, to which only (A) members have access. Some people have taken it upon themselves as a cheap Thrill to create (A) toons to try and rebuke what we stand for. Any non-authorized (A) toons are susceptible to deletions per Kims thread about guild names and tags.

These are the exclusive rights and property of the guilds in Aetheria.

Applying a Guild name or Tag to a character is an honor bestowed upon that player by the guild. Along with that Guild name or Tag comes both privileges and responsibilities.
The only time any player may use a Guild name or Tag on their character is by both invitation and permission from the guild of that name.

Therefore, any character reported using a Guild name or Tag without that guild's invitation or permission will have that character deleted, possibly without warning.

Please respect the Guilds of Aetheria by not using their names or tags without being an invited member.

As nowhere in this post does it mention whether a guild MUST be official as part of 1 faction I have been assured that it will hold true for (A) (and I would presume any other non-official guild). I appreciate everyone cooperation in this matter, and as for those of you who are maliciously attempting to destroy what I am creating you know who you are. Its amazing how well IPs track to accounts as well, with luck I will soon know who you are too.

Seems a little oxymoronic dont it? If people are making (A) toons to disupt (A) doesnt that mean they are just following the guild rules?
and doesnt your above post go right against rule 6?

just saying really. not really my concern

[Blystos Re]

Don't you have to be a guild to fall under guild rules?

Unless I am mistaken, a cross-faction gathering of similarly-tagged characters is considered a "Cult", like the Okies, so basically everyone knows who you are but you don't get the benefits a guild does.

And no, I'm not bringing this up because I wanted to build a rogue anarchist...though I've got to admit, the thought crossed my mind.

Kim, may we have a ruling on this slippery slope? Do guild rules apply?

**EDIT: Furthermore, the statement that suggests a guild does not have to be in one faction seems like something not entirely based in reality. If this has changed, please let me know. I will immediately begin to augment CLAD with sorcerers.

[Amoenotep]

guild rules don't follow cult rules. you don't get the same treatment.

[DM_Kim]

In regard to what was discussed Korr. Tep's ruling is correct. All I can do is speak with any offending PC and ask. No more than that.

Why not consider applying for official status and run out of MA? There is still an open guild spot there.

[Alkapwn]

IT's ANARCHY you can't tell him he's not a guild!!! He can do whatever he wants!! Fight the power!

[Lorkar]

ANARCHY IN THE UK!!! oh wait that is just poseur talk, hmmm poseur. Can I join (A)insert name here(A) and be a poseur too?

[Korr]

For those of you who dont know anything about anarchy, I suggest you read up on it. The general term you all are thinking of is lack of government, but Anarchy goes way beyond that. Its about people running their own lives, not a second party (government) setting up rules and regulations for everyone to follow.

True Anarchy is ran from a very tight social network, where everyone does their part and everyone relies on each other. Structure for the people by the people.

[Alkapwn]

sounds like a Hippy commune to me

Anarchy (straight from wiki)
* "No rulership or enforced authority." [1]
* "Absence of government; a state of lawlessness due to the absence or inefficiency of the supreme power; political disorder."[2]
* "A social state in which there is no governing person or group of persons, but each individual has absolute liberty (without the implication of disorder)."[3]
* "Absence or non-recognition of authority and order in any given sphere."[4]
* A society free from coercive authority of any kind is the goal of proponents of the political philosophy of anarchism (anarchists).
* Independent from rule or authority.

Personally I believe in Chaosanarchism in the punk rock stylee. "Anarchy" is a much debated term and can mean many things. Most modern Anarchists I've met are just idealistic socialist

[Lorkar]

Your structure by the people for the people is called Anarchist Collectivism.

And to be truthful, there are far too many "sects" of what we would call anarchists for it to be covered under any one umbrella.

I can think of at least 6 types of Anarchy off the top of my head and some of those would mutually exclude the others.

[Blystos Re]

Mmmm...Manifestos give me a tummy ache.

Meanwhile, we will hate Anarchy as Death, which it is; and the things worse than Anarchy shall be hated more! Surely Peace alone is fruitful. Anarchy is destruction: a burning up, say, of Shams and Insupportabilities; but which leaves Vacancy behind. Know this also, that out of a world of Unwise nothing but an Unwisdom can be made. Arrange it, Constitution-build it, sift it through Ballot-Boxes as thou wilt, it is and remains an Unwisdom,-- the new prey of new quacks and unclean things, the latter end of it slightly better than the beginning. Who can bring a wise thing out of men unwise? Not one. And so Vacancy and general Abolition having come for this France, what can Anarchy do more? Let there be Order, were it under the Soldier's Sword; let there be Peace, that the bounty of the Heavens be not spilt; that what of Wisdom they do send us bring fruit in its season!-- It remains to be seen how the quellers of Sansculottism were themselves quelled, and sacred right of Insurrection was blown away by gunpowder: wherewith this singular eventful History called French Revolution ends.

You have to be considered a guild in order for guild rules to apply. Perhaps before posting part of a rule you should read the rest of the rulings on a subject.

From now on, we will start supporting guilds as a part of NS4.

Guilds that can only recieve our support, if they uphold some simple guidelines for the organisation of the guild:

1) All members of the guild must be from the same faction, and there must be no more then 2 guilds in each faction.

2) A guild must have been announced on the forum either to the public or to a DM via Private Messege. After this announcement a guild must have atleast 5 active members, and be online requlary to gain the benifits.

Guilds that live up to these simple guideliens will gain the following benifits:

1) Forum on the NS4 boards. These forums will be moderated by the Guild leader (and DMs) but will be open to the public.

2) A Guild Hall in the faction they have chosen. Only members with a Guild Hall key can gain acces to this area.
- The Guild Hall must be made by the guild themself within guidelines from the Dev-team. The area must be no bigger then 64 tiles (ex 8x8, 4x12, 6x10 etc.), and there must be no more then 2-3 placeables per tile.

3) In the Guild Hall there will be a NPC which will color your armor and helm for you, in the colors that your guild has chosen to be their uniform (1 main color and 1 secondary color).

It's a nice idea just not really a guild. Personally I think if you want real Anarchy everybody should make (A) tagged toons to really fight the power. I think I might even do it now.
