Introducing: Knights of Stonewall
Currently, there’s a good contingent of members that are planning on playing Star Wars: The Old Republic when it comes out. So far 25 people have joined the group on the Stonewall site. This is by far more people than we had when we started Stonewall Fleet. So I’ve decided to expand the fleet into Star Wars. We have at least a year until the game launches, so we’ll have plenty of time to get everything worked out and most of the ground work has been laid by Stonewall Fleet.
If we’re going to do this, we need to start advertising now. I want us to become the premier GLBT guild for Star Wars, just as we have for Star Trek. Before we started advertising, I wanted to get a new site ready for the new guild so I’ve spent the last two days putting it together and if I may say so, I’ve impressed myself. What’s really awesome about the new site is that it’s links with Stonewall Fleet’s site. This way everything to do with you, the user, is synced across both sites. New members who sign up using either www.stonewallfleet.com or www.knightsofstonewall.com will be able to log into both sites. As well, all of your profile information, all of your friends, all the events and forum posts, even your messages are accessible from both sites. This provides us the ability to have to separate guilds with one community.
Why is this important for Stonewall Fleet? Because this is our first step from just an MMO guild into a gayming community. This will allow us to grow even more. And let’s face it; the forums could use a little livening up. Don’t worry though; Star Trek Online will always be our first and main MMO.
To accommodate the new guild, we’ve added a new section to the user profile with Star Wars specific fields and we will shortly making a new forum section for the new guild available. Take a stroll over to the new site at www.knightsofstonewall.com and tell me what you think!! If you’re planning on playing Star Wars, edit your profile and declare your allegiance, Sith or Jedi!
