Brains and Brawn

Discussion in 'Guild Recruitment' started by Exmortis, Nov 13, 2012.

    Guild Name: Brains and Brawn

    Leaders:
    Exmortis (and his alts)

    Guild Type:
    Casual guild, focusing on all spheres of play, especially crafting (no surprise here move along).

    Guild Chat Maturity Rating:
    None, I pretty much have no rules on chat, just ask for respect of each other. Teamspeak server for guild use.

    Primary Play Times:
    Currently we are EST time, and really our focus will, be on all North American times. I have no issue with others from other times, but right now all players are NA times.

    Guild Premise/Goals:
    To enjoy all Vanguard has to offer, to see us all through the best part of the game: The Journey.

    Website:
    none at moment.

    Application process:
    Speak to a leader or officer in game for a guild invite. I have many alts, check my sig. As a avid crafter I switch often while working on projects, so can be funky tracking me. Few others are recruiters as well.

    Additional Information:
    B&B is a ground up new guild, very small right now. I say this to ensure no one joins expecting a massive established guild. I have few rules and expectation, but I will post them below. Right now most members are new or returnees, and we are just focusing on fun, and enjoyment of the game in all its facets. We have no restrictions on alts, if we did I would have to quit!

    Expectations:
    1 You try as hard not to be offended as you try not to offend. Everyone has a responsibility in this regard, its a two way street.
    2 Those wishing assistance, are the first to assist others.

    Mantra:
    What makes my guildie stronger, makes the guild stronger. What makes the guild stronger makes me stronger.


    Thank you:
    Bowdacious for a great template I stole, I hope its ok!

    Very small guild at the moment - but high maturity level. One of the best crafters in the game as a leader so great crafting support available and its harvester-friendly. Most of us will group with a harvester so you can get double skillups if we are available. Which does NOT require harvesting together so you can do what you are doing and we can do what we are doing even with a 40 level difference and totally different harvesting skills. While small as noted above there is often someone on during the day eastern time.

    Supersized guilds can be great - when you ask for help or for someone to group with there are quite likely to be people on that can do that. The price you often pay is reading guild chat and thinking "Oh Gods am I really in the same guild as someone that would say THAT?" Personally I hate putting guildmates on /'ignore or wincing whenever I read guild chat.

    This guild is a great place to be to avoid those "oh Gods" moments and to know your guildmates and have them know you. And to be in on the ground floor of building a guild. While not as large as some guilds we do have a lot of expertise and are delighted to share it.

    This post was not authorized by the leadership but I'm betting my membership that it won't offend them - too much <cowers>.

    Do you require the use of teamspeak? I don't care to do voip in gaming for a number of different reasons. Very much like the sound of what you're doing and would happily be a part of it.

    Can I join?!!!
    Oh wait, I already did ....
    Move along, nothing to see here

    If you guys are the same ones I remember from back in the day on Morrel Thule who branched off from The Hessians....I had a character in your guild for quite some time, long long ago :) Not sure if it was my main (Quelos Hadron, Ranger) or not....but Brains and Brawn is ringing some bells as far as guild names go :)

    Good day all,

    First thanks Shiv, as always you do FR great credit, so refreshing to hang out with raiders of your caliber and awesome easy going fun attitude. Glad your able to join, I will likely try to get more out on my Galleon to show off the world. I actually have fun sailing around, strange as that may sound.

    Circle,
    We do not require any such use of Team speak, its there for you use, but never required. Only expectations are posted, no hidden secrets, all I want from everyone is good MMO fun. OH I guess one hidden expectation, you don't dis crafters too much. :)

    Renfail,
    Yes we are the same Brains and Brawn from MT, we didn't actually spawn from Hessians though one co-Founders was from them, Iillil. Iillil and my self founded B&B on MT, but he is not playing Vanguard. I was Exmortis Darkenblade, Shadowknight. Now I am Exmortis Ranger, but still Dark Elf..... Very cool to see an old MT fellow player in Vanguard!!!

  14. Zynt New Member

    I'm not crafting much yet but I would like to and love the idea of a learned mentor. I'm mainly soloing a cleric right now, currently lvl 24. I'm brand new, played EQ from 99 until a few months ago. Don't have the time to invest in it any more and was looking for something new. I checked in game but none of the recruiters were online. My cleric's name is Oshe, send me a tell when you can, I'd like to join.
  15. Exmortis Well-Known Member

    I will add you to my friends list, most of us are still away for holidays, but im back.
  16. Exmortis Well-Known Member

    New Year update!

    Was a grand time over the holiday season, Brains and Brawn added many new members to its ranks, we had out first guild dungeon run last night.

    I think 2013 will be the year for Vanguard, and to everyone in game here to be a part of it /CHEER!

    No restrctions on recruitment, we are open to one and all.

    Feb Update.

    Guild still growing the way I would like it too, slow and steady. We have add some real quality members recently and with their assistance Brains and Brawn village is nearing a reality!

    Still looking for Crafters, thinkers, doers, wanderers and blessed lunatics.

    Hey guys/gals, haven't made an ingame character yet (due to the fact that i cannot seem to remember my old accounts), but i'm sure to make one sometime tonight. Simply waiting on the install process. I played VG when it first came out in 07. Old toons were a 50 warrior (Anarion), 47 Shaman (Aenor), and my favorite was a Bard... can't remember what lvl but his name was Sheemer - may end up using that name haha :p. If you see Geschenk or Sheemer on, send me a tell! I'll be bringing a friend along with me too!

    Sorry for delay was a busy weekend!

    Right now I am mostly handling recruiting but thats something I am going to have to change now I think. I won't be on until Thuresday night most likely. Best way to track me is put my main crafters on your friend list, rarely a play time goes by with out them being logged on.

    Feel free though to chat up any of my awesome memers for guild info and ask any questions you have.

    Sorry I missed you over the weekend.
  20. Aasha Well-Known Member

    I can be one of those, but in groupie form! :)

    It is great to read that your guild village is coming together so nicely! If you folks need a hand with harvesting, or anything really, that me or my people can help with, please do let us know!
