Imaginary or not, Canada sounds like a much less scary place than oh, say, the Middle East or North Korea.

Canada isn't a real, it's a place parents make up to scare children.

For some reason it seems like Standing Norb should be a town in Canada. I think it's in Saskatchewan. In the town square is a statue of Standing Norb, who... founded the town by slaying bears I think.

I converted my desk into a standing desk.  We're entering a new era, Standing Norb.  Woah, that's like an inspirational phrase.  Standing Norb.  You could say someone who is proudly overcoming adversity is "Standing Norb!"  Oooo it'd even be a good name for a drink, "Gimme a Standing Norb!"

Oh it

I can make a mean coffee latte iced banana shake with my Osterizer blender from the 1970's .

This is the cheaper single-cup model, only $60.

On an unrelated note, Eleven days...

looks cool but I dont think I'll be spending $130+ for a coffee maker anytime soon... my cheapy one works fine. :)

My Keurig coffee maker came.  THIS THING IS AWESOME.  No cleanup, push button, coffee.

I'm gonna get another one for home I think.

  The Secret World

              Dragon Cabal


Welcome to the Kindred Spirits Dragon Cabal!

Here you will find recent TSW topics, links and information!

TSW is a deep and rich game with unprecedented opportunities for players to become deeply immersed in their character, the setting and the lore.  Because we are a casual-core group of players that love our games but know that real life comes first, we encourage everyone to explore the game at their own pace.  Together we work toward our individual goals and goals for the Cabal and they are never mutually exclusive – every player that takes a step toward being Nightmare instance ready is one more person we can play the game with at the current pinnacle of challenge that the game offers.  Also the way TSW is designed, there is never a mission that is obsolete – you will get credit for most of the missions in the game no matter how many times you repeat them! So never be shy about asking for help or to group up!

The Cabal is a curious bunch and we intend to explore every nook and cranny of this game. We do this through teamwork and sharing information both inside and outside of the game – but don’t worry, participate when they can and we will help catch you up if you feel behind!

 Cabal Management 
We have adopted the Directive structure for the Cabal and the ranks are as follows:
Navigator (GM) – Nataraja & Ryuken
Surveyor (Officer) – Goibhnie
Barterer (Member – may become Team Leader)
Traction (Recruit – may become Member)
Bridge-Builder (unused but may become Recruit)

You can contact Nataraja, Ryuken or Goibhnie in game for a Cabal invite with the current password.

Currently the Cabal structures in TSW are rigid with no ability to set permissions.  Our intention is to allow anyone who is a member to have access to the Cabal bank.  As the Cabal grows there will be a need for Team Leaders so keep an eye on the forums for details on new leadership opportunities with the Cabal!

 General 
We are all here for one primary purpose – to HAVE FUN!

We play games to relax and enjoy ourselves – and punish those evil pixels when we have had a rough day!  So hop on, find some other members of Kindred Spirits and go for a spin!

Vent is helpful but is only required when participating in Cabal events – you must have the ability to hear during events but you do not have to speak.  But please be courteous toward your fellow players and don’t talk during a cut scene!

We encourage you to participate both in the game and here on the forums! Here you can vote on applications for new recruits and members, get news about the game and theory craft, get organized for events and even form groups ahead of time! When you can please attend in-game Cabal events and make sure you chat with fellow members (in game and here). The more you engage in the Cabal the more we all get out of the game and the richer the gaming experience!

As a courtesy to other members please keep your Tavern of Souls Post updated.

 Events 
The Cabal will announce events in two ways:
•   The Cabal Message of the Day (viewable when you first log on and on the Cabal tab when you hit shift-f)
•   Here on the calendar and in our Cabal forums.
 
We typically schedule events on 2 or three days of the week with special event times for our EU members.  Events include instance runs, blue print fragment farming, questing and PvP!

Also feel free to post in the forums to form groups ahead of time!  Many of us are very busy so the more we plan for productive gaming the better!

See you all in THE SECRET WORLD!

General

Have fun! This is the most important aspect of any game, we are all here to relax and enjoy ourselves!
Don't forget to Represent, it helps the guild gain Influence which we can then spend on upgrades and boosts to help out the guild as a whole.

Participate! Vote on applications, attend guild events, chat with fellow members (in game and here). The more you engage yourself in the guild, the better the community is as a whole. It can even improve your gaming experience. You are by no means 'required' to, but the more people that participate, the better the guild is for everyone.
Remember to keep your ToS updated.

Treasury/Bank

There are three Guild Storages (Stash, Treasure Trove, & Deep Cave) that are opened up by spending Influence that is gained by the membership.  Depending on your rank you will have access to one or all of the guild banks.
  • Guild Stash (50 slots) - Recruit and above will be able to access.
  • Guild Treasure Trove (100 slots) - Junior Member and above will be able to access
  • Guild Deep Cave (100 slots) - Member and above will be able to access
Events

Events will be announced in two ways.  
There will be a notification in the Message of the Day in game advising of the Event type, time, & date that it will occur.  
There will also be a notification on the calendar on the website, if there is a limited number of spots available we will have sign ups via the website.  
We will be attempting to schedule an Event every other week.  These will range from Jump Puzzles, to Keg Brawl and special events such as the Lion Arch EXTREME Diving Contest.

World vs World

We will be scheduling weekly WvW guild groups to help our server strive for victory over those EVIL other colored servers (How dare they be a different color).  Look to the Message of the Day and the Calender for the time and dates.  In addition to help in organizing our assaults into the Eternal Battleground and the Borderlands we are part of the Alliance War Council (http://awc.enjin.com/).

Back-Up Server

If Tarnished Coast is ever locked by ArenaNet for population we have chosen Fergusson's Crossing as a back up server.  
Note, this server should only be chosen if there is no other way to choose Tarnished Coast as your home server as this will cause difficulty with interacting with the guild.  As your home server would be different from the other guild members you would not be able to join us for WvW, but you could guest onto Tarnished Coast and participate in all the other activities.  In addition in order to change your home server you would need to pay to transfer your account.

Server: The Shadowlands (PvE East)

Faction: Republic                    

Server: The Shadowlands (PvE east)

Faction: Empire                      

  Kindred Spirits - Republic    Kindread Spirits - Empire  


   It is a time of great turmoil in the galaxy. The millennia spanning rule of the Galactic Republic has been challenged by the reemergence of the powerful Sith Empire.
    The 28 years of war have temporarily ceased with the Treaty of Coruscant, but tensions remain and new conflicts are brewing. A cold war threatens to plunge the galaxy into warfare once again.
    Two sides are engaged in an epic struggle for control of the galaxy.   Will you join the Republic and fight to preserve your way of life or join the Sith Empire and seek to establish their right to rule?

One guild, two sides...Which will you choose?

 

Welcome to the Kindred/Kindread Spirits "Star Wars: The Old Republic" Chapter Page! You can find recent SWTOR topics, links and information about both factions of the guild here!

KS maintains a guild for both factions of SW:TOR. Located on the same server, they are able to directly compete/complement each other. This page represents both factions. They follow the same guidelines, structure, and rules as listed on this page.

Everyone is encouraged to explore the game at their own pace and work with your fellow members to achieve individual goals. Guild runs will also be scheduled 1-3 times a week. These can include raids, PvP, instance groups, or maybe some whacked idea we had that sounded fun....
The guild intends to explore all the game has to offer. This can best be achieved by teamwork, and everyone in the guild participating when they can. 

Recruits (new applicants) are asked to choose one faction or the other to apply to and play in initially, but may play either side as they see fit once made member. Ensure you note Republic or Empire in your application.



Happy adventuring, and may we all have an enjoyable gaming experience.
Available Officers:
Republic (Corellian Run) Empire (Corellian Run)

  • Sabercat - GM
  •                - Officer

Guild Groups - Looting

General Guild Looting Priority:
  1. Main Character
  2. Companion (for main character only)
  3. Alts in group and their companions.
  4. Greed/Disassemble
The in game roll will be used as best it can to follow this loot priority. Only roll for characters present (don't roll for an alt if you are on your main or vice-verse).
Groups may create their own loot priorities as well, so long as all agree upon them before the run.

Some tips:
  • Always pass on BoP unless rolling need. It also allows for it to be Disassembled if that is decided (and available).
  • Make sure you look over the item in question and ensure it suits your class and spec before rolling (pay attention to all its stats).
  • Don't loot during the battle; looting can wait until the fight is over.
  • Be generous! If you get something another can use, give it to them.
  • Think of the guild bank! Get a lot of trade materials or greens on that guild run? Contribute some to the guild bank.

Guild Treasury

The guild will maintain bank for member use. Details once game is released.
 
Remember, we have a Free Trade Agreement. You cannot require a trade or money reimbursement for items or services rendered. If they wish to compensate you for it, they can.


Raiding
We are not a raiding guild; we do enjoy a good raid however.

Raids will generally be run by a raid leader or other individual. We typically use PHPRaider for Event Scheduling and Sign-ups. Loot rules follow our group loot policy and an honor system. Loot distribution is at the Raid Leaders discretion.

More info once raiding begins.

General

  • Have fun! This guild is here to support you having fun and accomplishing your goals!
  • Participate! Vote on applications, attend guild events, chat with fellow members (in game and here). The more you engage yourself in the guild, the better the community is as a whole. It can even improve your gaming experience. You are by no means 'required' to, but the more people that participate, the better the guild is for everyone.
  • Remember to keep your ToS updated.
  • Characters not logged in for 60+ days will be removed from the in game roster. If this happens to you, simply follow the invite instructions to get them reinstated.

Groups/Looting

Need before greed. Ensure you roll need only on items you can use (upgrades/crafting items). Greed can be applied to most everything else.
The built in roller works very well, just make sure you click the appropriate roll.

Some tips:
  • Make sure you look over the item in question and ensure it suits your class and spec before rolling (pay attention to all its stats).
  • Don't loot during the battle; looting can wait until the fight is over.
  • Be generous! If you get something another can use, give it to them.
  • Think of the guild bank! Get a lot of trade materials or some blues no one in the group can use? Contribute some to the guild bank.
  • Don't forget to make your group private!

Treasury/Bank

The Guild will maintain storage for donated items. An officer (Treasurer) will take any donations and store them on a banking toon. Items donated will be listed in the Rift Treasury board. Members will need to request items stored.

  • You may donate items for others to use by mailing/trading them to the Treasurer.
  • The Treasurer will maintain a post listing items available.
  • Anyone may request an item stored by following the instructions to request items on the Rift Treasury board.
  • Please only donate Gear of "blue" quality and up. Donations of rarer trade materials and artifacts is also encouraged.
  • Alternatively you may store items yourself, and post up the items you have available on the Treasury/Trade board. You would then need to fulfill the request for items yourself.

*Once/if a guild bank is implemented, the treasury will change significantly.

Raids/PvP/Events

Raids and other events will be announced in one of two ways. Larger raids and events that need a certain number of participants and class balance will use PhpRaider (our event planner). Other events that don't need so much coordination or planning will use the events board and forum calendar.

Most officially scheduled events such as Raids and PvP runs will be posted on PhpRaider. Sign up is required for these. Other events such as a guild screen shot or other activity will be scheduled using the forum calendar linked to the events board.

Anyone may post an event to the events board. Only have a couple hours a certain night and want to hit an instance? Post that instance you want to do that night ahead of time to the events board, and you may have a group waiting for you when you log in.

Please remember, we are not a raiding/PvP guild. We will however, do our best to experience and participate in all the aspects Rift has to offer.

Some points to remember:

  • Listen to the Raid Leader!
  • Bring a good attitude and patience.
  • Come to an event prepared.
  • Main/current spec gets priority on loot.
  • Sign ups are required for larger coordinated events.
  • Anyone may post an event, such as an instance run, to the event board (can be linked with the calendar). Please don't conflict with official events.

Welcome to the AoC chapter for Kindred Spirits. 
KS plans to explore all of AoC to the best of our abilities. 
From PvP in the border kingdoms to raiding end game content. Anything is possible. 

We will endeavor to explore all of Hyboria, at our own pace. Eveyone is encouraged to play the game at their own pace. We are in no hurry to get to the "end game." When the time has come, and we have the numbers in the 80's, we will begin to schedule group events. A few times a week we plan to raid, and have PvP battle nights, among other activities. Remember, no rush to get there, take your time and smell the blood!

We are currently actively recruiting for AoC. 

Guild groups - Looting
Need before greed. The built in Dice Roll for loot works very well. Simply ensure you don't need something you don't actually need.
Three things to remember for loot in an all guild run.
  1. Roll on everything not BoP. Only need for those items that are an upgrade.
  2. Everything else can be greeded. If you get an item another needs and you don't, offer it to them. 
  3. Don't forget to switch to Round Robin  
Some tips:
  • Don't loot during the battle; looting can wait until the fight is over.
  • Be generous! If you get something another can use, give it to them.
  • Think of the guild bank! Get a lot of trade materials or greens on that guild run? Contribute some to the guild bank.

Guild Treasury
Currently the guild bank will be used primarily for City Building. 
Please only donate resources and monies at this time into the Guild Bank.

Resources required:
    * 2.5 Gold - Monies
    * 150 Ash - Woodcutting
    * 50 Silver - Prospecting
    * 100 Copper - Mining
    * 200 Sandstone - Stone cutting

This is only the beginning of what we need.  More information will be added as our needs change.

We encourage everyone to donate what you can. Later on in the game once we are more established and have things set up. The bank will expand into a full bank system allowing donations of items and requesting of banked items.


Raiding
Although we are not a raiding guild, we do strive to experience everything a game has to offer. We do plan to have a couple of raid nights a week and hope that we have the member interest to persue the raid content.
Looting will be discussed once we begin actually raiding.

Ranks
Guild government type: Nemedian
Rank break down:
    ○ Aspirant - Alts
    ○ Vassal - Recruits
    ○ Squire - Members
    ○ Knight - Alt officer/Team Leaders
    ○ Commandant - Officers
    ○ Lord - GM


City
Guild City Location: Poitain, instance 6.



This is all subject to change and edits. We are still learning the game mechanics, and how we will need to organize things.
