ROFL, thats kinda funny.

You say the word "alt" in Paradigm and you better be prepared for flames,
insults and outright warfare.
One or two people have switched mains but its VERY rare, and a couple people
have left the guild because they wanted to switch and were told no. Another
two have almost gotten kicked out as well.

Its interesting, people say "well you are in Paradigm (or any other high
level guild) you must have great equip for you and your alts." But fact is,
there is little to none alt equiping. If a Trak bp drops and no mains need
it goes in the bank. Even if your alt is level 60 (and we have quite a few
of those). We tried to work out a system where people could use their raid
points ot buy items from teh bank for their alt but that was shot dead too.

So, Tani will never be a main =/ Interesting how guilds perceive things
differntly :P

Tani, 53rd BRD
Halana, 60th SHM
