A message to the Guild

It has been a while for me to post here. But I wanted to let you all know what is going on with our Guild. I have had the privilege to lead this great group of friends here in Guild Wars for more than 4 years now. It has been exciting to see us grow and at times has also been very difficult. But I don’t regret 1 minute of the time I have spent doing it. I have meet many new friends and we have built a great community for ourselves. I just wanted to touch base with you all so there is no confusion about what is going on in the Guild as well as what I am doing.

Some of you might have joined me or have heard me talking about a new game I was Beta testing. This game is called Aion. I have played a couple of closed Beta’s as well as played the open beta with many of you. I have enjoyed the game a lot and plan to start to play it more often when it goes live on the Sept. 22, 2009. This is in no way saying I am leaving you all behind in Guild Wars as I play Aion. I do plan to continue to play Guild Wars. I might not play GW as much as i start to play Aion. But I will still check in and join you all for events and other fun things.

I have heard that many of you would like to join us in Aion. I have also spoken to many of our Officers and they also might join us in Aion. With that said I am hoping to have us Grow as a Guild into Aion as well as our GW community. How I am hoping to do this is by keeping in contact with you all thru our Website as well as on Ventrilo. We will continue to use both of them to communicate and party with all of our members in both games. For those of you who don’t use Ventrilo or go on these Forums. I would encourage you to start to do that if at all possible.  We have used Ventrilo thru the open Beta of Aion and I have seen many members on there again. It is like the old days when we would have 20 to 40 members on at all times. We will open new channels if needed to support all people. But I am going to start by leaving just a few channels so that we will continue to join each other in a channel and enjoy the conversations.

For those of you who have never heard of the game Aion. It is another MMO. I would say it is the cross between Guild Wars and WoW. The game play is like WoW (open environment) but looks and feels like Guild Wars. If you are interested in maybe joining us. Feel free to post something in our forums or contact us on Ventrilo we will get you into the Legion (Guild) over there. We are planing to set up a Legion over there called Knights and Heros. Many of our current and former Officers will be helping set up our new Legion in Aion. There will be also many of our current and former members also joining us. This is something you all should be proud of. This shows that while grew in Guild Wars and went thru good and bad times. We all made a difference. This is why many people stay with and come back to us here in “Beer”.  In Aion there is much more to do and a lot more our members can do to help the Legion grow and be powerful.

With all that said I leave you with a couple final words. The first is I am not leaving you in Guild Wars. But might not be playing as much. I am also hoping that if you can and might be interested in playing Aion. That you would accept my personal invitation to join your brothers and sisters over in the new Legion.  I have been very lucky to have met so many new friends in the gaming world and I am looking forwards to the future of our Guild and our Community.

Thank you all
