Reason you would like a guild ship: I apologize for the "wall of text" in advance. Order Sixty-six is a guild that was created during the Beta testing of SWTOR and was creating during the early access release of the game, originating on the Infinite Empire server which eventually merged into The Bastion. Although I wasn't personally as active back then, the guild grew to be one of the largest and most successful on that server. Over the first year of the game, the guild slowly started dying.
A couple of the original founding members of the guild, including myself, came back to the game for the Revan xpac around 2 months ago. We were happy to find that our guild still existed, but not with the state which it was in. After purging many of the inactive players who had not played for over a year ending us with less than 20 players, with only a handful of us being active within the past month after restarting the guild, a nearly empty guild bank, but determination to become a well-known guild.
After having not played for over 2 years, the game felt new to the couple of us that came back, and we felt obligated to help any other new players in anyway we could which is why we decided it would be an open invitation guild for anyone to join. A place where people could look for help, possibly make new friends, run flashpoints, operations both old and new, and PvP without any commitment being required from individual players. (One joke between a few members is that it is required to kill any Jedi on sight to be true to the guild name.) Since many of the players are free-to-play, new to the game, still leveling, or just coming back many people also don't have credits to spare to donate as they are trying to establish their own accounts and gear up their characters. A few members donate credits to the guild for the rest of the players to enjoy weekly repair allowances, and that is a partial reason that we can't quickly save many credits in a short period of time to save up for the guild ship. Having a guild ship would hopefully bring members of the guild closer together to participate in Conquest as well as quickly gather to start Operations which we are currently trying to build a weekly group for.
