Guild System – With one sole mind for the race, we will become legendary for we are together!
Guilds in RF Online
A guild is a community formed by people who have identical objectives or similar gaming preferences. Guilds help fortify collaboration and friendship amongst members, which are some of the key elements in the game.
A guild is formed under two purposes. “Battle-oriented guilds.” are like special troops of army with advanced abilities in battles with other races and “friendly-oriented guilds” focus on creating a friendly atmosphere within the guild for pleasure.
WHAT IS A GUILD?
CREATING a GUILD
To create a guild, you must go find the race administrator and [Request to Create a Guild]. Persons requesting to create a guild must not be associated in another guild. There are certain costs to creating a guild and the initial members of a guild (8 including the leader) are named as “original members” and have following rights in the guild
- Join a new player
- Access information on a character who requested to join
- Suggest a proposal
- Vote on a proposal suggested by another player
- Not be forced out by another player
The committee
Beside original members, there exists a committee in a guild for making decisions. The committee may be formed by the top 10% of the members excluding the original members and have identical rights as the original members. (members of the committee are subject to change accoding to guild contribution points). The number of committee members will change with the size of the guild but will always consist of at least one.
GUILD MASTER

Guilds may compete against each other within the same race. The standard for competition is determined based on the rank of guilds, which is computed by comprehensively combining guild contribution, level and population of guilds.
