Contemporary Heroes (http://contemporaryheroes.shivtr.com) is once again actively recruiting new members. We are a very active PVX guild based primarily on the Henge of Denravi server (although we are open to members from any server for PVE and PVP).
We have people playing at most times of the day, but most of our members are in North America, so evenings in those zones are typically when we do the most.
Our mantra is “NO DRAMA.” We are here to play and have fun with friends. We don’t care if you are the best of the best, if you never play XYZ aspect of the game, or how often you log on. If you want a place to have fun and cut up a little – and make some really good friends in the process – you will like it in CH.
As far as guild rules/guidelines, its pretty simple. We do not tolerate (serious) elitism, petty squabbling, name calling, belittling or any other form of serious drama in the guild whatsoever (to be clear, we do allow those things if it is clear they are part of people just having fun – we aren’t draconian overlords monitoring everything people say
). Anyone doing so soon finds themselves looking for a new guild.
Anyone interested – please whisper me (Blaeys.3102) or anyone with the (CH) guild tag in the game. We will make sure you get an invitation.
The guild is based around the members – not specific game activities. As members express interest in different aspects of Guild Wars 2, we try to adapt and make sure they get the experience they desire. Guild leadership is not based around a single player – but rather around three “leadership councils” (one for PvE, one for PvP and one for WvW) that try to cover several different playstyles.
Guild Activities:
Most of the week, we leave the schedule open for individual and small group play (with ad hoc large group activities such as WvW, Living Story and Orrian Temple runs thrown in).
At the same time, we have three events that are scheduled every week (none of which are mandatory for members to attend):
- Guild Mission Night (Monday nights at 8:30 eastern). We do all guild missions. They usually take about 45 minutes to 1.5 hours. Attendance has been holding steady at between 30 and 40 participants each mission. We do not take ourselves very seriously during these missions, so be prepared for singing in teamspeak (never a good idea to let us know it’s your birthday ), stories about exploding armadillos, etc.
- - Guild sPvP Tournament Night (every Tuesday at 8:15 p.m. eastern). Format is open, but we usually do a 3-5 team 3v3 deathmatch mini tournament on our custom pvp map – followed by something just for fun. We dont take this event very seriously either – its mainly about hunting down and killing each other mercilessly over and over. We also have some members very serious about improving their skill – and building strong teams – for the semi-competitive PvP scene.
- - Guild WvW: Organized guild runs on Wednesdays at 8:15 p.m. eastern and Fridays at reset.
Addtionally, it is very easy to find people for 5 party groups for dungeons, fractals, etc at almost any time of the day in the guild. We have a fairly active playerbase that enjoys doing things together. If you express interest in a particular activity, we do our best to make sure you get the chance to do that activity. This sometimes means rotating people in and out of dungeon/fractal groups. It is important to us that no one gets left behind. People who commit to the guild will find the guild committed to them.
Guidelines for Members.
We want players to be able to play the way they want to play. To ensure that happens, we have a few guidelines:
- No drama in guild chat or Teamspeak – ever.
- When you are repping CH, you have to behave like an adult, both with other members and with people outside of the guild.
- Multiple guild repping is allowed, but we are looking for members interested in being an active member of our community (meaning please rep when you can).
General Guild Information:
We have a channel on the HoD Teamspeak, a 100+ member Ventrilo and an active Web site () – as well as a fully stocked and researched guild bank.
Guild boosters – we run +5 supply, + karma and +magic find at all times, with other boosters running based on need (e.g. crafting critical success when new crafting levels come out, reduced waypoint costs, etc when needed).
Our members include people from all walks of life and of all ages. Ages (that I know of) range from 14 to 62 – and we have many families that play together in the guild.
If you are interested in joining, whisper me (Blaeys.3102) or any other member in game. You will not see us spamming chat looking for new members. We prefer to recruit in ways that allow us to better communicate who we are and what people get from the guild when they join.
