Company and Settlement Recruitment Thread for New Players

[Axi Hoffman]

In Thod's recent update on settlement sizes a post was made about how hard it is for new players to find a company/settlement. Therefore I propose this thread as one we can link new players to in order to make their choices.

For all new players - Companies are the 'guilds' of the game and most (almost all) are associated with a settlement. Companies are where you can find your support, either in playing the games or items (such as armor, equipment, recipes, etc) and groups to take on encounters with (either PVE or PVP). Look at all of the companies and find one that matches your play style and aims for the game. If you are not sure, pick a company that provides the right variety for you.

For companies - In this thread, make your best 'elevator pitch' and link to your long pitch. What this means is no more than 1 paragraph about your company, and no more than 1 post per company. A paragraph should be no more than 5-7 sentences, don't be a space hog. The intent is for a new player to quickly know what you are about and have a link for more info.

I am also going to make this thread in the Goblin Works forum.

There's already a company recruiting index here:

Thanks Nihimon!

Thanks Guurzak and Nihimon but that list is a bit out of date, and doesn't provide information about each company/settlement. The idea was to make it easy on new players, and have up to date info. I will gladly let this thread die if Nihimon can update his list. I'm just trying to find a better way than sending people to the land rush list, out of date lists, or looking through 100s of posts.

The Pathfinder Online forums over at GoblinWorks have forums for both

settlements and companies

which are both up-to-date and active. Posting in the Introductions forum will definitely garner you attention and a chance to evaluate different recruiters in real time.

I strongly encourage players to make the move to the GoblinWorks forum, or at least be active both here and there, as we've been encouraged to make the move to the new site and most of the crowdforging is taking place there now.

Goblinworks Recruiting section on their forums is the ideal place for this.

As neither forum is perfect in its available features, but from a simple updated list standpoint it stands to be the best solution.

Goblinworks Recruitment Forum

A thread is not really needed, as the individual companies and settlements should have an ad posted.

or what Deianira said before :)

I'm ok if people do not want an index thread.. Just trying to help players to not have to read through 220 posts in 55 threads. It was worth a shot.

I haven't really been maintaining this list since the Land Rush.

As Deianira points out, the Goblinworks forums have a Recruitment subforum, so I'd like to encourage folks to use that instead.
