We are Tonic [Lime], a launch GW2 guild that is close-knit and adult-lifestyle-oriented.
Here’s our blurb: Our guild was established in 2012 with the purpose of building a close-knit gaming community that caters to the busy adult. We understand that life comes first and have no mandatory events or time commitments. We believe in the power of respect and look for supportive members who value teamwork. Elitism and aggression are not tolerated here; we work together to achieve our goals. While we are based out of North America, we accept players from all over the globe and embrace diversity. We are always looking for committed, social players who enjoy all aspects of multiplayer gaming in a more casual, semi-competitive environment.
We’re looking for social, friendly, committed members who don’t mind we’re doing a little rebuilding.
Raiding: We’d like to get into raiding and are looking for either beginning GW2 raiders or raiders who don’t mind working with beginners. While we are a casual-friendly guild, we expect something close to meta, at least half of your gear to be ascended, and the best consumables. Relaxed but no bullkitten, basically. We expect to raid 9pm EST but we have not picked the day(s) yet [likely Weds & Thurs, but maybe a weekend group].
Here’s how we generally recruit: Community is our number one focus here at Tonic, so we recruit slowly and carefully with interviews for each potential new Lime. Our aim is to have a small, close group of people that actively plays and interacts socially with each other. We expect majority guild representation (>90%), as we have found this to put more emphasis on loyalty to our community.
Community: We used to have guild meet-ups every year called ToniCon. We had our last one in Vegas. We have had guild members date (IRL!) and I even had a guild member in my wedding party. We’ve helped with job applications, coding dilemmas, parenting tips, or just a friend to drink with
Other events: We do Fractal Fridays, a fun social event called Tonic Tuesday once a month (last one we did, we dressed in Tonics and paraded around Divinity’s Reach). We casually do guild missions for people who want them. When we grow again, we hope to lead some map events like TD Meta, etc.
We have an active (in text) Discord, a level 52 guild hall, and a pretty cool (but simple) website.
Essentially, we’re a diverse adult group with some filthy casuals and some try hards and we want you to join our great team.
are you guys still open for recruits? I am a returning player, been on and off since launch due to life doing its general life thing and getting in the way ha! I am keen to dive back in and play
