Ok, here the deal with the idea for the neutral pilot guild.
A good friend of mine recently aquired a (nearly dead) crime guild. And he's begging me to come help him rebuild it, by head up the space/smuggling piracy aspect. Now, if y'all want to maybe join up in the large RP crime guild, and do the neutral pilot thing, please send me a mail in game (cause tells get lost 
)
) For neutral, I mean that you don't care much about faction. You can be reb or Imp, as long as you don't actually follow imp or reb orders.
If instead more of you would prefer to not have affiliation with the older guild, and form something new, lemme know that to.

Indeed. We should pick a galaxy where none of us have characters and all roll new toons, and run around cantinas in a novice smuggler horde irately demanding beer and pie.

Its ok Gith, you don't need to be a smuggler, or even a very good pilot. In fact you could be a brand new fresh made character *hint, hint* and I wouldn't care, and if any of the other folk in the guild cared I'd just smack them over the head witha death star hologram.
Little bit more info. not that I have time to write it. The guild itself is a mafia based crime sundicate thats fallen on hard times, just deposed its former kingpin (although not killed him, just dethroned) and is looking to regain at least some small fraction of its former respect. It is a Roleplaying guild, so you'll actually have to RP your scoundroul (I use the term loosly, like I said you don't gotta be a smuggler)
Smugglers will definately be needed, as one of the goals is to raise the prices of spices back to a little closer to what they were before someone undercut the whole market.
The part of the guild thats basically going to be my job to run is the space part. Would love to get some space robbery going, but even if not that, a group of people flying around, looting ships, having fun. You don't even need to be a good pilot, I have a YT that is LOADS of fun to fly with a full crew, and it has this for the smugglers on board
Any questions can be sent in a /tell or a mail to me in game, though if you're interested I'd suggest a mail because without fail, any time someone tells me something important in /tells, its while five other people are telling me things unimportant, making me lose track of conversations.

You know you want to.

Erm, would you care to give away the name of said guild? I seems there is at least one similiar(neutral/smuggler/roleplayer) guild reforming on Starsider at the moment, unless of course we are talking about the same guild here.
Oh, and you might wish to give Elandri a tell about this... unless of course this is just another alt of you anyway. If not, you might consider a merger here.

THIS is right up Wasodo's alley. I love to Role play.
RIght nowI'm Master Marksman/Smuggler 1010/ Novice Commando- AND I got a respec token still. Don't know what I'll end up as but I know Master Smuggler is in the cards.
I got beef against a Imp named Mi'ke so I will dabble in Rebel faction for the sole purpose of getting revenge.
I'm not much of a pilot- (freelance 1111) but I'm a hell of a gunner and have yet to be in a multi person ship.
I will send you an email tonight or tomorrow- Let me know the best times to catch you ingame.

*sigh* The guilds name is Severed Shade. Its been up to this point a primarily ground based Mafia-style guild, with delisions of granduer (sp?), and a long history,but hopefully the new leadership will be a little more realistic then the previous ones have. There's a good chance it might work, because one of my demands for joining was that I be allowed to tell anyof the guild leaders'Go **** yourself' if I thought they were making bad choices. Then I get offered the position as guildhead of all the space stuff, which means I can chew out the other leaders without even fear of repremand. Woot! Already plans are being made to patch up problems created by the previous administration, that the old leaders refused to apologize for. And the 'front' for the guild is most likely going to shift from its old cover of being a 'mosture farm' to being a shipping firm. (Though I'm pushing for the front to be salvage and junk dealing.
)Basically the guild needs crinimals, thugs, pirates, spys and smugglers of all shapes and sizes. pretty badly. The old leadership ended up firing or driving away a lot of good people, leaving the current guild with little more than just a handful of members and an old name. I'm perfectly willing to help any low level pilot with parts and missions, plus anyone that needs to grind a combat class can most likely be supplied with weapons (please say you nead pistols, I'm a friggen packrat and I can't just throw these things away, but what the hell am I going to do with6 FWG5s?) and hunting partners (a bunch of us just seem to like running across Dathomir and Yavin and killing everything in our path)
Heh. And I spent almost a year in a guild that was the IC and OOC enemies of Severed Shade, so bear with me if I'm still feeling a bit weird about the prospect of joining them.
On the bright side, finally managed to put a stop to the old leaders blatant undercutting of the spice market!

Arsani,
Now, I ain't even goin' to pretend I know all the ins and outs of running a guild but it seems that this could really lead into something big (smuggling even) if a few things are done.
I mean, if the game had a revolving goal- it would be more fun.
If you and your rival guild had opposing goals then there is a great potential to set up routes where we could fight over what goes down. Even hire BHs to carry out goals.
It would be difficult to set up- but once done, if done correctly, it can be a self sustaining system.
Are ya'll trying to do that?
Or are would you be just a guild that gets together and hunts and helps each other level?
I guess what I'm asking is: What is the mission of the guild and what do we do to achieve that mission?
