• Hello members, I'm alive. Although I know it feels like I've abandoned the guild (and in a sense, it's true), it's never left my mind. Things have happened, some good, some not-so-good, but I've finally found time to spend more than two minuets here on Gaia. It wasn't fair for me to up and disappear like I did, and I am really, REALLY sorry for it. I won't be on every day, but I will be on at least once a week, and am going to try and pick this guild back up from what it is now.
  
  
• First I'd like to thank the Vice-Captains for keeping the guild alive when I could not. You guys have done an excellent job, and deserve all the credit.
  
  
• Second, I've celebrated my comeback by banning all those who have not left a single post, AND have not donated to the guild. If you've posted OR donated money (either or), you're safe. smile
  
  
• It's going to take me a big to dig through everything, but I want this guild preserved, because it IS a good idea and it CAN help infant writers grow, I truly believe it. So bare with me as I go though everything. smile Thank you.

Actually, I'm afraid I'm the only one left. It's good there is someone else because I'm trying to update people as soon as possible and keep the guild up. I'm a poor little Mod xD

Glad you are back Sugar!

Hey, I'm still HERE, i just don't post much

1/12/10: Just a few quick updates.

• First and foremost, let me tackle the Member's Status Thread. smile There is going to be a large change. Because so many of us have multiple stories (which I obviously didn't think about when I started this whole things up), the Status thread is becoming huge. HUGE. It's becoming harder and harder to navigate, which is great in a way because it means that we're growing and expanding, and that the guild is doing what it's supposed to be doing - motivating us to write. smile However, it's a big ol' pain-in-the-arse for those of us who are updating members. Especially those of you with lots and lots of multiple stories that keep getting done quickly ( stare stares accusingly at Chanthar stare ). Doing this will help us to save some space.
  
  "So, SugarRos," you ask, "where will all those old updates go?" The answer is in the archive thread. When you complete a story (notice I didn't say 'goal') I will be moving all of your updates to a thread in the Archives subforum. Also, under your name will be a list of the completed stories you've done, with an attached link to the archive status thread with your updates, still all nicely laid out for other's to look upon in awe and worship you.
  
  
• Second, I promoted DessertRoseFallen to Vice-Captain status. Those of you from the old ages of this thread might be confused as to why the original ones have been demoted. I sent a PM to all of my VC and crew and gave them a month to respond. Those that replied I've kept on, those that have not I've demoted.
  
  In saying this, I am now in desperate need of some hardworking, dedicated crew members. Because of my work and school schedule, I simply cannot be on here every day, and I need some people who can fill in that space for me. Please pm me if you are interested in becoming a crew member. ^.^
  
  
• Third, Dessert and I are currently working to get the contest forum up and properly running, so keep your eye out for some contests to pop up in the near future.
