IMPORTANT: Visit our Christmas Event Page to check out what Going Postal are doing this December!
We are recruiting!
Going Postal is a gaming community that has a casual laid back approach mixed with a friendly adult environment. We have a no kitten approach to guild that separates us from the drama and in-house politics.
Who are we?
Going Postal is a well established, semi-casual, gaming community. Within the realm of Guild Wars we are at the heart of the Desolation PVX community. You’ll see us in all walks of the game, from our WvW commanders to our round the clock non-stop dungeon grinders.
Our buzz word is community. Guild Wars 2 does not require you to be freaking awesome at the game to take part and we feel the guild should reflect this philosophy. As a result Going Postal doesn’t care much for how many deeps your Unicorn spewing bow kicks out, or how you solo’d Lupi using a hedgehog to mash against the keyboard. Building a friendly community filled with easy going, game loving people from all walks of life is all we give two sticks about.
What do we offer?
Going Postal is well known on the server for it’s community and social events, which we run alongside our usual PVX content. Our bread and butter involves two Guild Mission events per week, ran Monday & Friday at the same time without fail.
On Sunday we run what is known as our social event. During the week we vote as a guild on games we wish to play on Sunday including:
- Hide & Seek - Your run of the mill, the whole guild hides in an area and one person finds. It caught you joining the hunting group.
- Secret Dance - The opposite of hide & seek, one person hides and everyone else seeks. If someone finds the hider, they hide too and dance until the entire guild is dancing in a hidden corner.
- Pub Quiz - The guild is split into teams and then everyone is given Guild Wars 2 related questions. The team with the most right answers wins!
- Location Quest - The guild is split into teams and then given a selection of ten pictures. They then have to work out each pictures location before the other teams!
- Naked Mile - The entire guild hops on a low level character and gets in the nude. We then race to a high zone, first to arrive with most of their bits intact, wins!
- Fashion Show - Guild Wars 2 is all about the bling right? Before the event people select one of four categories and dress their characters up accordingly ready for a presentation to the rest of the guild.
Seasonal events are an important part of our community. During all major holidays we make sure to provide additional content in the form of contests, competitions, and larger socials offering a chance for everyone to spend time with the guild and win cash shop prizes. This is a tradition was started last Halloween, improved upon, and developed into an event our entire guild looks forward to.
The Halloween just passed we held a bonanza of events:
- A large scale Location Quest based around the pumpkin carving.
- A spooky screenshot competition.
- A huge Halloween social event which fused all our activities.
- A guild event to complete the dreaded Clock Tower.
- A guild event using tonics!
- A pub quiz style game where members had to guess the horror game music in Teamspeak!
- Halloween themed game music playing Teamspeak for the entire event.
