Greetings!

As no one bothered to reply and voice their thoughts about guild take overs, I
assume this for most people is a nothing subject.
WTF cares really if it doesnt happen to me?

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out”
Because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out”
Because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out”
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me”and there was no one left to speak for me.

But I realise I'm old, grumpy, bitter and a fool in the eyes of others so
therefor I decided to withdraw from playing the game.
And really, who cares?

But, as they say, after rain comes sunshine and here comes:
20 years ago, I had a small, bad, inexperienced wizard coding for Lilith in
Avenir.
(Mim was on ice those days)
There was a disagreement on how the Holm should work, and the keeper Mrpr put
the Avenir Liege on ice.
And I was given an offer I could not refuse. Either you take the Liege within
24 hours, or Avenir will be removed from the game.
Now this is a true story, belive it or not, and I realised I had to accept or
one of the best domains we have would die.
So I did accept, and had the Liege burden for quite some time, until others
took over.
That was 20 years ago, but it feelslike 20 days. Hard work, but a lot of fun
too. And I got to know more about the game and it's inner function.

So now, after speaking to the keeper, ha has given the Liege over Avenir to me,
which was possible after my withdrawal from the game.
And as I realised that my disgust over guild take overs might be wrong, this
will be my first task.
I have proposed a plan for a major guild take over, and got the blessing from
admin.
The Shadow Union will be the first guild for a 'guild take over'.
There will be no death at wake up, this was rejected by admin, but a complete
guild hall devastation, rack looting, and stripping of guild xp for the members
of a raided guild.
Assume opening at the end of may, so that current members have a lot of time to
decide how this affect their stay within the guild.
Arman told me that if this is sucessful, two major Krynn guilds will follow.
