I'll be there day one. I promise.
Im not sure Id want to be the linkshell leader again, but I would like to help anyone who wants to try and make a new CKD style guild. I would rather be a Co Leader. Or even better Id like to be part of a councel of leaders.
I dont hold grudges, but I'm sure others will. Id like to think CKD could work again, but I dont think the personalities would get a long. Really I think it would be fun to start a leveling guild and invite ifrit only players. Then as people hit the cap we could then create a new guild with the first generation of level capped characters. Thats pretty much how CKD came along.
Regardless Id like to see everyone from ifrit on the same server. At least all the first and second gen players.
I've spent the past 4 years being a raid leader and the last 3 years being the guild leader in WoW. I really believe that the best possible structure is to have a clear guild leader who is compassionate, selfless, just, and decisive. Have a clear second in command that thinks a lot like the leader who can be decisive if required when the leader isn't around. Then have a council of about 5 people with diverse views on how to run things that the leader respects. Fact is that sometimes a leadership council will be divided and one person needs to step up and set the direction and you live with it.
As far as a guild, you have to define your objectives. Do you want to be hardcore or casual? Do you want good players with bad personalities? Do you want bad players with good personalities? Do you want the best possible team or do you want to make sure everyone is included? Do you want people to come and go as life allows or only active players? These things need to be defined and enforced consistantly.
I also hope that the old Ifrit players end up on the same server. It would be fun to see everyone again, even if I don't end up sticking with the game.
