Guild Profile: Scripters Guild

Profile by Jay Watamaniuk, Dec 4 2002 Guild Name: Scripters Guild Membership: 221 Activity: 13 Guild Type: N/A We are a scripting guild. Guild Owner: craggovi Founded: 15th October 2002 Are you accepting new members?: Yes	The Scripters Guild Web Site

Can you tell us more about your guild and what sort of gamer it would appeal to?

Scripters Guild is designed for scripters of all abilities. We also will be willing to help out project managers of Mods and such from our "Current Projects" forum. Those of our scripters who are advanced post tutorials, answer questions, and organize new projects. One of our main aims is to improve scripting standards and encourage people to learn from others scripters and post their own scripts and functions that they find useful. We are also designed to have members who are in a wide range of other projects and so can give us inside scripting news and updates (examples of this are NWNLexicon and Genesis III).

Can you give us some background on the development of your guild? Why did you start the guild?

I started the guild because when I started scripting I found the amount of help available was very limited and posting on the BioWare forums just didn't work too well for me because of the number of people and so I wanted a place where I knew my questions would be answered and where I myself could learn from "better" scripters than me.

How do you see your guild developing over time?

I see our guild having more members and improving our members scripting skills. Several of the projects we are currently completing at the moment are finished and up and running. Some examples of this would be our site, which we are currently building.

Can you tell about some of the projects you are working on or ideas for projects in the future?

Our future guild web site will be a collection of the projects we have worked on. This will be mainly for a collection of tutorials and a board where people (even if they are not members of the guild) will be able to submit requests for scripts or help. The people who answer these will be proven scripters who have completed tests which test for scripting ability. This also means we accept requests to join the site team. Another project that we are trying to set up is a server which will house a world which is basically a big city where we post multiplayer scripts to be tested. We do have a "current projects" forum where we keep a record of our projects. We also offer two IRC (Internet Relay Chat) channels to discuss projects and the development of the site and also to just have a chat whilst surfing.

Do you have any advice for NWN fans that want to join a guild?

If I had one bit of advice for people thinking about joining a guild would be "Don't join more than 3, tops. This is because guilds are a lot better if you are dedicated, joining 5 or 6 guilds makes it very hard to achieve this."
