Lux e Tenebris, light out of darkness.

Maybe you've seen us running around haven. Perhaps you've noticed us talking about random things. You've come to this page, so you may be wondering what we're like as a guild. Well...let me give you some history in the form of some easily digestible bulletpoints.

1. Sarari and Etendue found the guild. Lux e Tenebris is born!
2. People begin joining. Guild begins focusing on merchanting.
3. Etendue is concerned about the quality of conversation in Lux e Tenebris. The guild begins a new recruiting scheme, focused not only on merchanting expertise, but friendliness and the ability to hold an interesting conversation. The previous 5-star only requirement is scrapped, and the guild opens it's doors to more people.
4. The guild begins growing steadily, held up by a strong core and outstanding recruits.
5. Our current stage in time.

Typically, we have conversations held in guildchat about the market, Spiral Knights, or whatever happens to pop in our heads. We also do runs together, and help to pull the members who are not yet in tier 3 up to par. If you're willing to commit yourself to be a loyal member of a growing guild, then read on.

[Announcement]
Guildmaster Etendue will be opening his position as Guildmaster to democratic election as soon as membership reaches 50 people. That's right, you ambitious little devilites, YOU can be Guildmaster!

---------------------------------------------------
New Application
Question 1: Tell us about yourself (hint: include merchanting experience, likes/dislikes, experience, activity, anything you like)

If your answer is sufficiently quirky, weird, or some other brand of interesting, we'll interview you.

All applications should be mailed to Etendue.
---------------------------------------------------
Old Application
We are a recently formed guild made to coordinate the efforts of merchants in order to obtain optimal results. Here are some questions that I've asked myself over the past few months:
What if I was a part of a group of people who could:
Control the price of valuable items?
Effectively manipulate the CE market to obtain ungodly profits?
Stockpile huge reserves of promotional items like the rose sets and sniped stranger hats?
Offer helpful advice on managing wealth, and the prices to sell items?
Do all that, and be a part of a closely knit community of friends?

This guild is our answer.

-Application-
In order to be a part of this guild, you must fill out a two part application. It can be mailed to me or Sarari, or posted here. I understand that certain aspects can be rather... personal, so the messaging option is out there.

Part A
Gear (specify Unique Variants, if any):
Ingame time:
How long you have played:
How often do you play:
Bosses completed:
Shadow Lairs completed:
Willingness to contribute knowledge:
Something about yourself:

Part B
Merchanting Experience:
Approximate wealth (crowns, CE, items):

Notice: We have very high standards for acceptance. Our “profile” for an applicant is quite specific, and applicants without sufficient merchanting experience or the drive to obtain that experience will unfortunately not be accepted. Please put some meaning into your applications, one word answers are not advised.

Hello to our newest

Hello to our newest members!

UPDATED:

All members who Me/Sarari/Crossproduct deem suitable will be given the opportunity to loan 10k CE (or some other agreed amount) to let them jump into profitable merchatning. The only requirement will be to return the money after a reasonable span of time, and (hopefully) after you make a profit from it.

Knightmare is an extremely

Knightmare is an extremely successful merchanting guild. Judging by your application form, it seems like you do much more than just merchant, just as Knightmare does.
Controlling the prices of items will be extremely difficult to do without getting input from the "wealth circle" as I like to refer to it as. This consists of a few players from other guilds and myself who often collaborate money making plans. We also hold probably 20% of the games wealth in items and liquid cash.

Just a fun fact!

Fun fact: You don't have a

Fun fact:
You don't have a high merchant concentration. 20% of the game's wealth would be... probably around 50 million crystal energy? Possibly more.

Chris, there are many people playing this game. I have no reason to believe knightmare has every member with average liquid resources of 500k CE. Most of the successful merchants I know do NOT have personal wealths exceeding 300k CE.

Here is a carbon copy of your post, for future reference...

Just in case you delete it. This is a post I don't want to go ANYWHERE.

I have 20 million CE worth of

I have 20 million CE worth of items and cash on my account. I've spent over 90,000,000 crowns rolling uvs since the games creation. The group of people I'm talking about know almost every "chance" percentage in the game due to so much testing and collaboration. We also have private forums where we discuss prices of items as well as when to buy/sell items and new profitable methods.

If you want to see how this guild master conducts himself just take a look through page 5 + 6 of this thread.

Oh, I don't need to see that.

Oh, I don't need to see that.

I have seen no proof that you've obtained your...stated wealth through merchanting. I'm no going to ask for a screenshot. Simply trade me, and show your liquid wealth in the trade window. A primitive method, but should work quite adequately...

"We also have private forums where we discuss prices of items as well as when to buy/sell items and new profitable methods."
Oh my god. What a revelation! I never knew people could... create guild forums...and...talk...in them...sob.

I hope to god you aren't referring to this thing.
