If so, consider this a standing invitation to my new FC: Factory. I'll copy and paste the info from another recruiting topic:

Okay, okay, okay, Factory is back, which means nothing to anyone. Quick history lesson:
Factory was founded years ago as a perpetually strange guild in a Maplestory private server (bonus points if anyone can tell me which ~_^) that moved across a few private servers, eventually returning to GMS (as many as were willing to go back to the real thing in that disaster of a game) and finally slept after a brief Dungeon Fighter Online life.
The concept for the group is older and deeper. The Silver Factory was the original incarnation of artist Andy Warhol's studio: a haven for urchins, drug users, artists and musicians of every sort, counter-culture icons, sexual deviants, drag queens, transgender individuals, etc. : Superstars all. Really, I can't begin to encompass the entirety of The Factory without an inordinately long post and a whole slew of terms that would automatically mark this topic for moderation. More information can be found, of course, on Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Factory
Factory, as a gaming community, is driven by the desires of its members. It has always had a "casual pro" atmosphere: it's a place where reliably good players would sometimes rather f*** around and goof off. However, there are only three real requirements for joining:
1) Be active
2) Be helpful
3) Get better
To clarify on the last one, I just mean that there must be some degree of improvement or progress to your time online. You don't have to show up in any given state. You just have to find some way to go up from there, whether that means getting better at content you have already done because you have full i90 gear across all classes that interest you or just leveling your botanist: you just have to be moving forward.
As for goals, they are even looser. We will gain an endgame community that runs higher level things, but the structure will be up to members. If someone wants to organize a schedule for raids, that's fine. If people just want to clump up and hit Mor Dhona shouting, that's fine too. I know Gilgamesh is the non-legacy RP server, and, though it will not be an RP guild, I would welcome a group that wanted to RP. As leader, I will manage membership to maintain an facilitate the goals of the community. There will also be a large percentage of members at officer level to keep things moving. In fact, during this infancy phase, I plan to make everyone an officer for a while. I'd rather trim and prune later than risk stifling growth.
Anyone who wants to join can post here or contact Andy Warhol in game. I don't have a ton more time today, but I will be on extensively over this next weekend. I will follow up on anyone who posts here ASAP.

I would, quite simply, f***ing love to have some Wrongplaneters to play with. I just don't know where to find interesting gamers anymore, especially with how socially conservative GameFAQs has become since I was last involved in an MMO community. I know I can make a great experience for a group, if I can just get solid FC footing, and I would love for this community to be part of that. <3
