History of TMB (II)

One of the first question that arose during the foundation days of the city, was whether or not have a guild associated to the city. Prior to the establishment of the city, some players were guilded, others were guildleaders and some were unguilded. Therefore, creating a city guild could have raised evident issues. To complicate the matter, we envisioned a city much like a real city, where people would be free to chose whether to associate with others more closely or not ; at some point we even envisioned to have several official guilds in the city, a TMB-C (for pvp'ers / militia), a TMB-Craft (for crafters and traders), etc...all working as mini-departments of defense, trade and commerce and so on...

Thus, for a very long time, several guilds (related to the city or based outside the city) had representatives in the city, among them Antarian Rangers, Twin Mountain Base Conclave, Ace dedicated to space pvp and many more !

Nowadays, given the server low population, the idea to have a unique player association for the city makes more sense as player associations gameplay options (guild enemy, email, chat channel, storyteller invitation) strengthen the community.

Still, some are attached to their current guilds and can't be blamed for that. So the idea is to progressively bring people into TWIN, first by making it (almost) mandatory to new citizens but foremost by having a strong and active community that would make TMB vets wanting to join.
