They are busy with work I'm sure. I'm going ahead with www.prefectsdkp.com and starting to get the hosting and setup ready. Hopefully our dkp site will be up asap then we can worry about the in's and out's of the actual point system. I think the one listed is a solid one, but if we need to change it we can... and we'll have a dkp site.

The person hosting for me is installing the dkp software and then teaching me to use it. He also wants to know if we want forum software. It'll be phpBB (a software I've run on 3 other boards) and he will be hosting... NO BANNERS / ADDS. It is a great software and it'll be packaged together on the same URL as the dkp site. Let me know if we want forums to. He's going to install the software but if we don't want the forums we can always just scrap it later. An example of the phpBB forums I used to run (since FIGHT's forums are down I use my old car site): www.thefocusconnection.com/forums/

Okay, off of work and able to read. I think we should ditch the DKP level cap, or raise it significantly do to item value. Second, yes for the website name, and the whole system in general has my vote. third if we put the forum softwarre onto the website perhaps change the URL to www.prefectsguild.com then make our DKP site www.prefectsguild.com/dkpfourth, i want to touch rhellion. fifth, thanks for doing most of the work Rhellion and on short notice.

And as for the level cap... I don't think we should ditch it or raise it too high. Maybe 400 tops, but I would prefer 300. It was a success in DD while we were raiding... the only people who even came close were the ones whording for a single specific item. I think we should encourage spending rather than saving. Thoughts?

So positive 400 and -200 will be the caps? What does everyone else think about that?

It certainly benefits those people who already have MC gear. Those who already have gear they need will be able to horde DKP to the point that no one else can match that total for when that singular item drops. The majority of the guild, equipped with mainly blues and some greens, will be spending their DKP less frugally, I imagine.
Really I don't have any problem with it though, just a little explanation of what's gonna happen.

"There is a 200 DKP Cap for everyone, this is used to save us against inflation and to save us from mass hordeing. You also cannot go under -200 DKP. "
I disagree with that totally, people if they want to save for something can. Only one or two people in a guild will ever do that. Considering not many of us are epic geared, everyone will be bidding , just a simple talk to the person whom is hording would solve things.
As for ALTS getting DKP, Mains have priority, however once a main is geared out their alt should be able to share in their DKP. That's not fair to the player at all. Or if a player logs on an alt to help out, rather than being on their main..
Everything else sounds fine.

Hey what about the people how have full epics like my Unshaper...... I know of like 3 things I'd want for her from MC choker of enlightenment, and 2 catorizing bands (spelt wrong, and not on dkp list from what i've seen). Heh I could always go with my warlock but I do think that after awhile the people who already have epics will have a major advantage on pts but the thing is we have also been in the guild the longest and formed it so guess it's kind of a balance. THE BALANCE OF EPICNESS!!!!
My cat called me stupid........ but the thing is I have no cat.

People who already have their epics and lend up gaining points should get what they want when it drops IF they have the points. After all, they do already have their epics and are not taking from the guild or the people trying to get the epics they arleady have.
Also, +400, -400 should be it.
What it comes down to we will use Unshaper as in example.
Unshaper has put in the time and points in a previous guild and received his items. So why should he be docked or have a capped point system because he already had his items so he wasn't bidding on anything that drops. So all the raids he has been going on, he finally has something he wants drops and has the most points, he should be able to get his one item. If he needs three items, well then most likely he will be able to get them do to the lessended gear he received in the long run.
