' Wrote:I think if the Reavers ever got to the size of the BHG, or if one of the key founders just went away for a while, you'd run into a similar situation. There for a while we had close to 90 players on our roster, with something like 500 characters between them all. That's just nuts - when as a faction you could literally take half the slots on the server if you wanted.
Both Virus and Dusty pulled a vanishing act. We had a short slump which was ended when a regular member stepped up to the plate and shook us back to life. Making your assumption rather inaccurate.
I think using the excuse that your faction is large as a reason to justify your inactivity is rather....well I don't know the word to describe it. Nuts, perhaps.
The Reavers remain active because a few of our members handle the paperwork and securing sources of income. I'm not trying to call Dash, Monty, or you lazy, but the inactivity of the BHG| can be laid partially on your laps. Without the head, the body rarely functions.
I will agree though, the Guild's cannon role play of only working lawful contracts does put an axe into a large number of possible contracts and I've been of the opinion that the houses should rather give the Guild nicer contracts than ordinary mercenary companies. I think the problem there is that typically your mercenary company's have been more productive than the BHG|, as of late at least.
