Guild Meeting (2nd. August) Point Roundup

First off thanks to those of you that attended the meeting and brought fresh ideas to the table on how we can improve our guild. The following is a point roundup of all that was discussed.

Chaired by: Sureshot
Transcript: Lunarwolf
Attendees: Sureshot, Lunarwolf, PrioryJK, Tando, Soude, Smudge, Charada, Dy.

Guild Commitments & Activity

• To improve the problem with activity in the guild a new rule will be added to ensure that all guild members log in and post on the forums at least once a week.

• If members cannot attend or post then a second rule will be added where the members must post in the absences thread to explain why they'll be away. If we feel that members are abusing this system then we shall take action.

Client Reports

• The client reports section will be removed & condensed into the Guild Chat forum and each ally will have it's own seperate thread in which the Emissaries of E.P.O.C.H will update once a month.
  

Guild Leader Q & A

• A new Q&A thread will be started in the guild forums where the members can ask the Guild Leaders questions directly about the guild.

• In addition to this a new Guild Leader/Officer bio will be posted in the Introduce Yourself section to explain who the Officers are in the guild and what experience we've had in previous games.

• Last but certainly not least PrioryJK has been working on a new frontpage. More details on that will be released at his request.

Special Agent Election

• A bit more exciting news is that we will be on the search for a new Special Agent (or Officer) to help run the guild with myself, Lunarwolf, and PrioryJK. This will give an Agent more responsibility but of course you'll also be involved with major guild decisions and you'll also gain a higher rank within the guild.

• Elections will start very soon indeed, but I shall place a post regarding that shortly.

• The actual voting will be the same as before and we shall be holding a demoratic voting system where Agents cannot vote for themselves only other Agents.

The Membership Cap Limit

• It has been agreed that we will stay at the 20 maximum limit for the meantine until launch where we will discuss if raising the cap to 30 is necessary or not. Without seeing the game in action we don't really know how important having a smaller or larger membership count will effect us in game. Needless to say this guild will stay small in number.

The Future of Roleplaying

• It has been decided that some of the RP must be concluded before close to launch or preferably before.

• Lunarwolf has been looking into using a new programme system to run a more fast-paced RP game night. There has been concerns about cost so it will be discussed if this would be practical or not but most the meetings attendees seemed very interested. More about that from Lunarwolf himself.

....and thats it!! If anyone feels I've left anything out then feel free to post a reply and I'll add it to the main post.

Thankyou to everyone who turned up and apologies to those who couldn't; the rescheduling was really last minute and it was impressive to see how many people joined us

Sorry I was so quiet last night, I was under strict instructions from the commissar girlfriend.
