What about those that roam? (WvW map)
Read the new update for the overflow WvW map. Sounds like a terrific idea. One issue though is that it appears you have to be in a WvW focused guild in order to participate.
Now here is my issue. On SoR, there is a server teamspeak, and “pugs” are allowed to join it and listen in on any commander their following, whether you’re in the guild or not. This is an awesome idea by the “leaders of WvW” for our server. Because of this, and because I’m not entirely WvW focused (but PvX), I’m in a guild that is generally PvX. I’m in a guild that has around 130 members online at a time, and we do everything, but are more PvE orriented.
However, I do WvW often. It’s part of the game, and again, I do everything.
Does this mean that, despite being a WvW player, I’m exluded from doing any type of “stress testing” or will there be an application to sign up as someone that roams the map, or follows guilds in WvW but are not in the guild?
As an active WvW player, I’d like to participate, but I’m a bit nervous that I cannot unless I ditch my guild and join a WvW guild that is constantly in it. Guilds aren’t the only thing in WvW…
Guilds aren’t the only thing in WvW, but WvW is not about roamers or individuals regardless of who they are. WvW is about the server and the team. The best representation of that is indeed organized bodies that collaborate to make something bigger.

Not true. Without roamers you have no scouts, no orbs, and camps hardly ever get flipped, which leads to supplies. Good roamers can put a lot of pain on the entire enemy server. Every server wants those that roam.
