Guild Wars 2

Hello, Guild Wars 2 forum!

Ancients of Elona [AoE] is a casual guild made up of friendly players. We were founded by a few veterans from Guild Wars 1. Over there, our guild of the same name is tiny at the moment, as most of our active players either became inactive or moved on to Guild Wars 2. We want to change this in GW2.

We are not a hardcore PvP or dungeon-focused guild, and there aren’t any real entrance requirements to join like payment, voice chat, a certain numbers of hours played per week, etc. The only thing I ask of all of those who consider joining is that they are friendly people who want to cooperate with the rest of us in growing our guild and enjoying the game together.

If you are interested, feel free to message me (Rathon.5840/Deathbringer Rathon, guild leader) or mountainlord.2634 (Mountainlord Norick, guild officer).

If you’re interested in it, a bit of history about our guild: In the summer of 2008, I joined a Guild Wars 1 guild called Lost Souls from the Depths. I quickly became an officer and, along with the rest of the guild, grew the guild into a large, thriving community. However, we started to die out due to some mistakes such as our leader inviting and promoting people just because they asked for it, followed by some of those people acting irresponsibly and kicking members. Eventually, our leader became inactive and the system automatically promoted me to guild leader.

The guild carried on for a while afterwards, but eventually the previous leader came back and asked for the position back. There was a conflict over leadership here, as he thought he deserved the position because he had it before while I thought I deserved it because I was more active and helpful to the guild. We eventually decided to split, and most of the guild, myself included, branched off to form Ancients of Elona in 2009.

Since then, we’ve never been very large. It’s mostly just been a few friends who liked to play together. Now, as we enter a new game together, Ancients of Elona seeks to grow our community of people who love the game.
