Hi, I was directed to this thread after my GW2 kept crashing shortly after I join the game, maybe ten minutes. This has happened about ten times now, I just transferred to Tarnished Coast from Kaineng, and it’s not crashed before, ever. It just started happening a little before the transfer, actually, though the first crash didn’t get a popup, and my trading post showed up as a big blue and green blotch (Seen here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/40581622/gw421.jpg).
Since then, it’s been crashing, even though it appears to be performing fine otherwise.
Hope this helps.
As well, there is no level limit! Any level, any class, any race may join, as long as you’re courteous and able to get along with others.
I should add that people who guest are welcome, and there’s no need to represent, if you don’t want to (though we would certainly appreciate it!).
The Society of Gilded Cages is a roleplay guild on Kaineng that is open to members! We’re a small guild, but we’ve put a lot of love into creating this guild and hope to invite others to play with us in our misadventures, and hope to have others to enjoy their time with us!
Our focus is on RP, PvE, but we also do a few WvW things, and we’ll get to doing more things that interest is shown in. We’re great listeners, and we always welcome ideas! As well, we’d be happy to help any of our guild members accomplish missions, map completion, or even just plain talk.
Our guild is a mature guild, so please keep in mind that mature themes will be part of our play. We do not authorize ERP—that is not to say that we will think any less of you if you do it, but we will not focus on ERP. Please approach these things with respect, and keep your ERP to yourselves.
What is the Society?
In character, it’s a Society that was started before the Searing of Ascalon. The grim people of Ascalon needed caretakers for their dead, and scriveners for their fallen in the unending war against the Charr. The Society of Gilded Cages was formed—an elite group amongst the humans, most of whom followed Grenth’s teachings, that were summarily tethered to their duties. It was an attractive post for those close to death (namely, Necromancers), but within the halls of the Society, monks, warriors, and mesmers found themselves listening to the echoes of their footsteps, as well. Truly, anyone who was willing to pay their respects to the passing of Ascalonian heroes were accepted within the Society—for they did not only chart the deaths within noble families, but they often worked for the Nation of Ascalon.
When the Searing shattered Ascalon into pieces, the Society did not stop—if anything, their work increased, became more active. Their cages opened, if only for a bit, for the time of crisis. Several of their more war-minded members were sent on the hit-and-run missions around the Wall. Other, more traditional members, set themselves to researching rituals, information, any scrap that would help the beleaguered human war effort against their seemingly endless war with the charr. Indeed, some of their findings contributed to what would later activate the Foefire, much to the guilt of the surviving Society, many of whom said they should never have studied the thrice-cursed swords to begin with.
After the Foefire, the Society dissolved into the nation of Kryta, finding themselves in respectable occupations, some continuing their adventuring lifestyle, others continuing their work in the name of Grenth. Gravekeepers, scholars, adventurers, death dealers, executioners, and scriveners all find work within the Society. The exploits of the past became less and less influential, with the rise of the Elder Dragons on Tyria, the Ascalonian-centered guild opening up to other races—even their one-time enemies, the charr.
And so the Society rose again, bearing traditions from their past, working with technology from asura and charr, magic from the young sylvan race, and the might from the far north. Even the silence of Grenth and the other gods could not cow them from their duty to protect their nation. And they would not fail them again.
