While I agree with everything Crim blatantly plagiarized it will be more important for each and every member to do what's best for the guild instead of what's best for themselves. Otherwise Crims entire post means nothing, and there is no reason to be in a guild in the first place.

IMO the only reason to join a guild is because of the benefit to yourself, I dont see it as self sacrifice to a collective, but rather individuals coming together to create value. While there needs to be order and discipline to this congregation when it comes to getting things done, I think it important to be mindfull that other people dont and shouldnt play for our sake.

The more the merrier so to speak, working as a collective to accomplish a common goal assures the goals completion to the benefit of all including one's self. Either way it's a moot point given the tendencies of online gaming these days, and whether or not you look outwardly or inwardly as a person and the perspective used to focus your own gaming ideologies on. By nature I am a support fighter, meaning I support front-liners, do the various odd jobs, pick off stragglers etc, working my way around the field of battle seeking targets of opportunity like a jackal.

In a roundabout way, you just stated much of what I said in the latter half of my last post. Quote: While I agree with everything Crim blatantly plagiarized it will be more important for each and every member to do what's best for the guild instead of what's best for themselves. 1. The source I used in my quote on Followership was blatantly noted. It's only plagiarism if you don't list your sources and/or give proper credit. 2. Doing what's both right for yourself and guild will automatically happen with anyone who has developed decent followership, leadership, and support skills. We can discuss theories about what is right and wrong with past and future scenarios all day, but until the focus is upon the actual skills necessary to work cohesively, accomplish simple tasks that support the larger scope, and remain dedicated to a game; nothing will happen.

I believe we are agreeing on the same points. I am Wrath, I am Steel, I am the Mercy of Angels. mors est merces mea – death is my reward morte in vitam non habet tenaci - Death has no grip on Life.
