((Up until this post, The Preferiti have never advertised their recruitment on any forum, but we feel that the purpose of Vanguard Roleplayers is quite different than other game associated site, as such, I wanted to introduce our family and what we are about.
The Preferiti is a light role-playing guild made up of leisure players who share the interest of enjoying Vanguard to its fullest.
Our definition of role play is quite simple, if your character knows about it or it exists in the lands of Telon then it is in character discussion, all other falls into out of character chat and should be indicated as such. That being said, we do highly encourage our members to speak of non-Telonian topics, should they wish, as this only helps to build friendships with the player and not just the character. We have found this blend helps others who are interested in role play but are somewhat hesitant to jump in with both feet.
We value quality over quantity, thus we do not advertise our recruiting on the official forums. The members that we presently have come to us from grouping together, traveling together, having assisted in channels, or spending quite a bit of time in chatting about what the players are seeking in the way of an in-game family.
We have an application on our site that we do request that all prospective members complete, along with a forum registration (using the applicant's main character name). This application helps to ensure two things:
• 1. That the player has visited our site and is familiar with our guild goals and objectives.
• 2. Provided information on the application is used to introduce the prospective member to the existing members of The Preferiti so that they can reach out to the prospect and welcome him/her accordingly.
Our primary goal is to assist, not only our extended family, but also the community in any way that we can; by means of server events, answering questions in the various channels, "random acts of gift giving", etc.
We have no mandatory play times and expect nothing more of our members than they are willing and wanting to give.
We have diplomats, crafters and adventurers of all levels who can assist with any questions of or concerns that may arise.
Our Qalian Guild Hall, on Keejay Cove, is complete with trophies from all three spheres and open to the whole of the server, so please feel free to visit!
We are presently recruiting for leisure players and light raiders; as we plan to host non-required raids, when levels permit, 1-2 times per week. To assist with eventual raiding and server events that we will continue to host, we have a Ventrilo server. Although the Ventrilo server is another resource for our guild, it has not and will not be allowed to take away from our role play core.
Our end membership goal is roughly 60 mains, of which we have 50%.
For struggling smaller guilds, should The Preferiti be in-line with your standards and you would like to discuss a merger, please contact Aasha or Thalatth in game, or via email at aasha@thepreferiti.com. Please note, any guild mergers are discussed completely with The Preferiti members so that all opinions can be gathered, as such, we do not step into a merger without a great deal of research and time to discuss.
The Preferiti can be found when selecting any/all of the following Vanguard guild sorting options: Casual, Chatty, Family Friendly, Funny, Helpful, Newbie Friendly, and/or Role play.
For questions or additional information about The Preferiti, please feel free to contact any of the following recruiters and/or officers.
Recruiting Officers: Aasha*, Eshne, Raederle*, Accipter, Fenwulf, Suhyasei, Aelonius, Laithikin, Thalatth, Eliziya, Melyngar, Zakonax*, Eriel, Myriel and/or Zheranon *
Officers: Bizzfyn, Izellah, Mikira, Miszeree and/or Yiesha
*Denotes Main Characters.
As to our history, The Preferiti was created in Everquest and existed there for the last four of the seven years that my husband and I played EQ. We moved to Vanguard; he in beta, I in open beta, and The Preferiti was created on Florendyl on January 26 of 07. Our guild system, goals and ideals are tried and tested and have served us very well for many years.
Our Telonian history can be found on our Guild "About Us" Page. Another piece of our history will be added soon, "The Magic in the Crystals" but is still in draft form.))
