Order guilds ganked on IN too, but i (and i think many others) always preferred when order guilds actually tried to act, fight and speak honorably, while chaos guilds acted oppositely. In a world thats going for any kind of RP feel i think this is something to try for.

Hehe, over at XUO I think that most people would choose order or chaos depending on which other guilds that were order or chaos at the time. If for example the guild with the best loot on them decíded to go chaos, then my guild would go order so that we could kick the ass out of those chaos people and get that leet loot they had, without guards killing us in blue towns.

I think that the "evilness" and "none roleplayingness" of most of the XUO players will make it hard to keep that "Order good guys" and "Chaos evil guys" thing working properly.

We need to think about that XUO is a big part of this merge as well, and the XUO players has to "feel at home" as well. I think that going from "Ok lets switch to chaos to kick Arnolds ass", to "Ok lets go order to be good guys and protect Britain from evil Arnold and his crew." is a quite huge change. Not just by thinking that for a second, but actually having to roleplay in a long term as if it was like that.

I don't think most XUO players would want to roleplay at all, at least not on their main characters. They may be OK with letting people roleplay without "ruining the feeling" for the roleplayers, but actually getting the none-roleplayers to roleplay themselves could be real hard in my opinion. Even if they'd do it I think most of them would feel uncomfortable with that kind of situation. So I think the best thing would be to let roleplayers roleplay, but not "force" roleplaying upon the people who doesn't want to roleplay, and I think that forcing them to act like "good guys" when they're order people, and the other way around, may be doing just that.
