I don't think I'll be able to play as often as I had in the past.
I will no long be able to pull those long nights any more, and I'll probably only play every other day during the after noon. I'll miss those times..

Oh no, that's not the situation Aki. It's just, I have other things to do and I can't keep up like I had in the past. So good luck to you all and I'll see you guys every so often.

That wasn't what I meant. Yeah there's school etc, but you stopped really leveling a lot before that. Good luck~

Blargh. Request to not be kicked from the guild. Doing calculations, I need 19 levels in 5 days (since my schedule for today is full, I won't count today as I will not be leveling today. :<) About 4 levels a day. Not impossible at all, and I could make it easily. I'll try, but if I don't make it, please don't kick.
Lots of things contribute to this. One being that I am a DEXLESS hero in a new server. It'll be harder to train and level, hence why I'm trade win PQing with guildmates for 30-50  . I miss a lot and spend time merchanting to get DEX gear, not grinding 24/7. That, and schoolwork. I'm being given loads this year, coupled with the fact that my dad wants me to sign up for a sport (although I'm the healthiest in the family. "Unhealthily underweight", actually, and I could beat up any one of the kids in my grade.) So, even though I get on Maple quite often, not all that time will be spent gaining EXP, and even if it is, I won't gain EXP quite as fast as people who AREN'T forced to commit to low level training areas, due to a lack of ACC.
I hope you'll be the nice person I know you are (sucking up, it always works) and cut me a bit of slack as I try to reach 40 before the deadline.
I may make it, by the way, but if I don't...

You may think that I'm being harsh or whatever, but the reality of it is that it's not that hard to add 35 or so dex to get you by and you're not at a loss for it. You're -choosing- this build in a place where it's impractical with your current possiblities, the consequences of that are on you, dude. This isn't Scania. The training places Stereo suggested for you in your thread are not by any means slow, nor are they difficult to obtain accuracy for when those times come. It's also not difficult to put in some T&E on PQing which is also a very easy way to make those "4 levels a day" as I've already told ya.
Like I said, level 40 is not an extreme request. The time you spent freaking out here / in BBS could have been spent leading KPQs. It really isn't that much to ask that people show a little dedication to staying in Yellonde now that it's in its third week of release and maintaining a guild of people who can't even do that much would be very hard; I can't afford to upgrade any of my items because of expansions, and I'm ok with that right now. I don't gach or 2x, I don't have a shop, I don't train all day, I don't level everyday, I'm not a "lucky" person, I lose mesos just by training (I don't break even). I just can't afford to keep doing it forever, sorry. If I raise the recruiting level limit, I have to be fair and raise the level limit within the guild as well.
Oh, and on the note of your thread, you won't be getting a Zhelm for a long time. The runners will prioritize based on level at first, and then based on a point system for the surviving runners. They won't sell helms until they have their entire group helmed, which could be many months from now, and even then they have a market of higher leveled / richer players that are undesired for runs that would also like helms. I wouldn't count on getting one before lv80.
I don't mean to offend or anything, but it's just not something I can go on not putting my foot down about. No amount of "sucking up" is going to change it. It's not because it's "all about levels" or anything like that, as I even stated in the first post. If that's what you think, maybe you ought to reread it. We'll discuss it further when that deadline comes, but if you had read the first post more carefully, you'd know I wasn't going to start kicking people for levels. :X

Sorry about that whole thing. Just ignore me if I seem in a pissy mood, I wouldn't want to give you the wrong impression, though I probably already have. I'm just really frustrated right now because nothing is really going right in my life at the moment, and Maple is really the only place where I can sort of just rant and rave it all away, without injuring the people I really know and care about. Which sort of contradicts itself, because I DO care about my guildmates and friends, so I shouldn't have been taking it out on you and the guild. Again, I'm sorry. And it may not help much, but I'll be donating 500k, which is all I have left at the moment. Sorry.

It's fine, like I said, when the time comes will be time to discuss it. In the meantime you should be doing what you can. :X
Also, don't mean to sound rude if I do, but keep your money. It's not all about the money either, and I can afford the next expand.

Anyways my internet's been really screwed up the past 48 hours or so.. haven't been able to train without fear of potlag death or DC. Hope this goes away soon. :[

A lot of other people were 3x when I joined, too.
Anyway, I'm 49 now, presumably when you called for a level limit.
):
I might be coming on today, if I can get a good partition tool ^_^.

Tbh I was thinking about raising it to 55+ after about a week or two after the 2x event (maybe a month), simply so people who just CPQ and quit @ 51 aren't really in the mix. I won't do it until we're expanded past 30-35 or so members though & start being able to do more things as a guild (i.e. successful GQs maybe? We'll see). I can't really be too strict and iron fisty about it because I myself don't level to the standards of the majority of the people around my rank.. no 2x.. not even 70 yet. 2-3 levels a day now?
I don't think I would raise it above that, but if the guild got really large (50+ members maybe?) I might have to raise the cap to 75 so that ROPQ quitters are no longer in the mix as well. I really don't think I'll expand past 40 or so people though, so no worries for a looong time. Maybe when Nani's 4th job or something, but then again maybe not 'cause training will cost a lot then & I'll need a major equip overhaul. Weeee'll see how it goes. For now guys, just don't get too stagnant and you'll be fine.
On that note, guild forum/site to be made after the first month of Yellonde. Aka last week of Sept or first week of Oct. If you have suggestions, you may contribute them between now and then (and of course after, but it would be nice to have some beforehand).
Oh yeah and Aaron is back Levi. xd

Well, if you want my domain you can have it o.o. It's set on re-direct from my DNS but I can change it if you get a free domain set-up.
It's MapleMasters.com but there's nothing running on my DNS so it's not up.
IMO, keeping the guild level requirement about 20~25 below your own seems fair since mostly everyone is in that range now and exceptions can be made to those absent of course. It's healthy for guild events to have active, leveling players.
Also, we need to GPQ soon, we're falling behind.

Accompanying my mother to somewhere that has cable to monitor Gustav's projected path. Probably won't be on today, tonight, and possibly tomorrow. Depending on where it's headed, I may actually be gone until Mon/Tues, but that's highly unlikely.
Talk to Larry (Kinkdoctor) if you have business with me; he does not have a SP account so please be as clear as you can. xd
Edit: I am back. (: Just outer bands and tornado warnings, wheee.

Aki, I got grounded ):
I got my laptop back from school.
How embarassing anyway.
*Facepalm*.
Hopefully tomorrow I'll get it back indefinitely.
