Hello all!
Firstly let me say thank you to those Guild Recruiters/Leaders/Officers that are taking the time to read my thread, it is very much appreciated. Now allow me to elaborate on the subject of what kind of Guild I’m looking for and a little more about myself.
I am new to Guild Wars 2, very new in fact, so I’m still in the process of learning GW2 and sometimes I look at the acronyms listed by people in chat and go cross eyed figuring out what they represent. So far I have to say that I am enjoying the game greatly and the people I have interacted with have seemed friendly and reasonably helpful. I am a lifelong gamer, an experienced MMO player who is very active and a reasonably quick learner.
As stated in the subject I’m interested in all aspects of the game, a slight preference towards doing PvE content with guild mates but I have started trying out PvP and found it an enjoyable experience and hope to further this along with dipping my toes into WvW before too long.
Though I am sure many people ask for this I do desire a guild that is mature and friendly in it’s atmosphere. Due to my high levels of time spent in game I’m hoping for a guild that has similar, so if you are a smaller guild that is all but deserted outside of the peak hours in the evening the odds are you aren’t the place for me as I’ve been in such situations before and find it very unpleasant.
Now to answer a couple of points raised in the excellent advice thread, kudos to the maker and contributors to that thread btw.
I am not willing to move servers, Piken Square is where I have made my home as I am a Roleplayer too when circumstances allow and it is the unofficial EU roleplay server so I chose to be there for the chance at that when I’m not involved in the other aspects of the game. Though with the mega-server and cross realm guilding I doubt this will be much of an issue however it might create some issues regarding entering WvW with my guild mates or some awkward instancing annoyances and so as stated in the subject I would prefer the guild to be resident on PS.
Voice communication, I have a headset and have no problems using this. However I tend to only use it as necessary, when doing PvE/PvP content that requires greater co-ordination. I am not and cannot be(due to RL circumstances) someone who hangs out in voice communication socially. So to those guilds for whom voice communication makes up a high percentage of the social communication within the guild, generally leaving the in game chat channel as somewhat reminiscent of a graveyard I probably won’t be a great candidate for you.
To those of you that have read this far, thank you! To those of you Recruiters/Leaders/Officers that feel I might be a good fit for your guild and vice versa feel free to contact me either by post, PM or in game. In game is likely the best option as I expect I won’t check back here more than once or twice per day and it means we can talk more easily than a PM exchange.
Cheers.
