Code: Select all

/guilds create "Your Guild Name" YourName
      ^---  don't forget the "S"

Try putting the guild name in ' '
Like /guilds create 'Dragons Rage Carrot'
You might have to manually put in the ' for Dragon's later.

Ok. Our separator splits arguments up by spaces. If you want an argument to be more than a single word you need to enclose the whole entire argument in double OR single quotes (be consistent).

Examples:
/guilds create guild scatman
This will create a guild called 'guild' and make scatman the leader.

/guilds create 'the uber guild' scatman
will create a guild called 'the uber guild' and make scatman the leader

/guilds create the uber guild scatman
will try to create a guild called 'the' and try to make the leader of the guild 'uber' (which most likely doesn't exist and fail).

The command is /guilds create <guild name> <player name>
Player name IS optional and if not supplied, your current target will be used if they are a PC. If you have no target, a guild with no members is created (the least likely option you'd want).

Edit:
Just to note:
The reason why you got that message was because it was looking for a client with a player's name of 'Rage'. I'm going to modify the code now to be a little bit more helpful with the error messages so thanks :P

I thought this was clear enough. "Your Guild Name" in my example even shows using quotes. Double quotes. Not apostrophes.

I used apostrophes because when I used quotes on my server it didn't really work. It added a quote to the name.
