Guild Wars 2

What methods do you use to recruit more members?

I force them to do so…

Oo

For what type of guild op? If its pve stuff and being friendly group then just run around low level areas party up with newbies and help with events. teaching them stuff then after a while mention to them to join your guild. It creates a pleasant taught to the person that your not gonna treat them later like cattle unlike the mega guilds who dont even know your name.

My guild does that too.

Mostly we list out what we are.
Then we provide a solid calendar list of weekly things we’re going to do.
The point is to not pressure anyone, but encourage that the veterans can and do help around when needed.

Aside from that I don’t know what the officers do to bring folks in.

1. Host a world event or start a taxi on a map.
2. Declare that XYZ guild is hosting the event/meta. (Make sure you do this multiple times, not just once.)
3. After your XYZ guild has PROFESSIONALLY and EFFICIENTLY completed the event/meta state in map chat,
“Another well done event/meta by XYZ guild. We are looking for more members to add to our ranks so that we can bring you many more successful zergs in the future.”

No smileys or any kind of emoticons.
Do everything here and consistantly every day and the requests to join will be flooding in.
