=How to run a guild=Guilds serve as a way for players to group together to complete a common goal. Some reasons to create a guild Guilds are to provide often focused around a place particular [[Nations|nation]] or [[Factions|faction]]. Guilds can have different goals. i.e: Nationalism:Many guilds are centered around nationalism, which means fighting for old friends to talk your (all Serco/Itani) nation. Nationalist guilds get participate in several activities for the conflict such as Capture the Cargo, Deneb, Nation Wars, etc. Nationalists also shoot players of the opposite faction and put up large blockades on their own chat functionwormholes. For Example: Itan, ONE, SKV, RED. Trade:Guilds are also centered around trade, and they usually sell several goods to make a profit. Trade guilds also do other things such as Hive Clearing, PvP, Manufacturing, etc. They are neutral with most guilds and factions, as this helps their profit. For Example: TRI, HHTT(new)etc. Mining:Some guilds are also centered around mining, boring as it may be, but they do not do only mining. They also do PvP, PvE etc. For Example: ORE, ROCK. Pirate:There are also pirate guilds, who do the basic work of a pirate; get money from you or kill you themselves. They are the most hated guilds in the universe, yet they are also extremely fun. They are mostly successful, but there are only very few guilds that have elite members, and attack players well. Not some newb wanna-be created guilds. For Example: FAMY, VOID. Just:Guilds can also be created for 'just' purposes. Which means, either it is just fun, or just a want to unite people create a guild. Or they want to work towards someting togetheractually do something, that does not need a category in itself. Like fighting, or mercenary. For Example: PA etc.
==Creation==
To start a guild you need to have 10 people total ingame at the same time willing to join the guild. The person who initiates the guild will become the Commander of that guild. The other people who join while the guild is still "unofficial" will become council members. To start the guild the Commander must first create the guild. Once this is done the Commander must invite the 9 people needed to make the guild official. The people being invited to a guild can join, or decline. Once there are 10 members total the guild becomes official and any members who join after that will be only a simple member with no guild powers. The Commander also has the power to appoint Lieutenants who can invite members to join the guild and also expel (Commanders also has have this power). Only 2 Lieutenants can be appointed at first.
==Management==
The Commander has the ability to post a message of the day (MOTD) by typing the MOTD command. This can be useful for sending out a message to your entire guild without calling a special meeting. Commanders and Lieutenants can both invite and expel members at any time. The Council has the ability to remove someone from office or appoint them to a new position. This is done by using the vote command. A majority vote from the Council will change the persons rank immediately.
==Dying guilds==A Any guild member or officer can be disbanded if basic membership is not kept. The minimal requirements for a see information about their guild is to have 5 council members activein the [[PDA/Comm|Comm tab]] of their [[PDA]]. Warning: If this is not kept the a guild has less than six (6) Council members, it will be disbandeddisband within 48 hours.
