I am interested in finding out if there are any existing advice websites for guilds, where guild leaders or prospective leaders can go to for advice and support regarding the running of their guild.
Many, many guilds die within mere months of creation, while others go on to last years, so it would be a useful resource for guild leaders to be able to see what they should do to keep their guild alive, and avoid failure in the long run.
What I am thinking is to create a site that explains how to be successful in guild creation and running, with not only advice but also articles written by guild leaders, both successful and unsuccessful, from a wide range of games; everything from EVE to Planetside, WoW to Darkfall.
If there are no existing sites like this, I will be looking for articles from guild leaders on the following topics:
Propeller heads (members who drive things forward)
Website
Voice Communication
Recruitment Styles
Drama
Events
New Games
Cliques
Trust
Dealing with problem members
Reputation
Goals and Aims
Making Money
If you are immediatly interested in helping then send me a PM or email! Currently I am looking at hosting it on my guilds website, www.thevindicators.com if there are no other sites already doing the job.
