<p>Whether you are an old veteran with grey hear (or no hair left at all), or a new player just starting out, I can tell you a secret I found out a few months ago. There is more to the world of Norrath than chasing for numbers.</p><p>It is often easy to forget the important reasons why we first picked this game off a store shelf, or a digital download site. I have been playing Everquest2 for quite some time now and to be fair, I do not remember every level I got. The memories stuck in my head are killing my first skeleton in the Queen's Colony, getting lost in a dungeon, or setting up my first home.</p><p>I have been working with new players for the last few months, running low level instances and having fun. What I found out is that those times of killing first skeletons and getting lost in dungeons are not as far out of reach as it may seem. Don't get me wrong, the game has a lot of offer on all levels, late-game especially, but sometimes it slips from fun to becoming a chore.</p><p>The reason I am writing this post is that we are starting a guild an AB, that is about creating these memorable experiences with friends you make along the way. Absolutely no level-rush, no forcing players into directions. We welcome any levels, classes, or alignments. Casual or playing every day, this does not matter. In our guild you can have as much fun as you like, no matter how many hours you invest into the world of Norrath.</p><p>Family environment, no restrictions, content of all levels and events from all aspects of the game (crafting, decorating, races, scavenger hunts, groups, all level raids), that is what we plan to do.</p><p>Below is part of a welcome letter we are planning to send out when we create the guild:</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;"> </p><p style="padding-left: 30px;">We want you, as a player, to enjoy your stay around here and have fun, instead of making yourself feel like your working on some chore. This game is not about end-game or the meta-game, but about Role-Play, Friendships and above all: Entertainment. When The Night Watch was founded, we had one rule: Never shut someone out. If you fail at your class, no problem; we are here to help. If you feel like you are not needed, tell us and we shall make sure you are needed. The Night Watch is a guild for new players, by new players. We feel a guild should look and feel like a family. We don't want to push you to the end, because that is not where it is at. Everquest 2 is a game that focuses on the journey, not the destination. We find it very important that players feel themselves at home and ease. If you have suggestions, improvements or anything related to that; say it. Let yourself out. We want players to feel in control. It is their game, it is their character, it is their journey. You should be what matters, not the rest.</p><p>If any of you are interested in what you read above, want to make new friends and enjoy the game together, you are more than welcome to join.</p><p>The guild is scheduled to be created on Saturday. Currently we are looking for players to fill the few remaining leadership positions. If you are interested in becoming a normal member, do not hesitate to contact me aswell.</p><p>We are on the AB server, send a mail to "Laxie" or try to send a tell.</p><p>Hope to hear from you soon,</p><p>Best of luck on your travels through Norrath,</p><p>Laxie</p>

<p>Hi Laxie,</p><p>I'm sorry I haven't been available to speak with you recently.  Nobody had been replying to my post so I took a brief few days break from the game.  Please get in touch with me regarding what has been going on so far.  Like I said, I have a dead guild that we can use that is low enough level to still start out with but not have to do so much work.  When the leaders left the guild was around level 22 and I have leveled it up to 26 by myself.  So, just  more levels and we can have a guild hall.  I would love to rename the guild "The Night Watch" if you like and of course keep everyone you currently have in leadership positions in leadership positions here as well.  Let me know what you think of all this. I wish I would have spoken to you sooner. </p><p>Thanks.</p><p>Trinati</p>
