Hi Ronin,

If you can’t find the right place for you on HoD, I’d like to recommend Hedonism on the Ferguson’s Crossing server. We are a smaller guild and plan to stay that way so we can really get to know the people we are playing with.

IF you get curious and would like to check us out, all of the information you need is here at http://hedo.guildportal.com Check out the “What is Hedonism” and the “Rules” in the information section on the home page to see what we’re all about.

Spent an amazing day in WvW today with various guildies.

Groups aren’t just scheduled, most of the time we put them together on the fly.

Come join us and be a part of a guild that isn’t too busy to lend a hand or, too high to be seen in a lower zone. We’re just good people building friendships with others who are looking for the same low key, no pressure approach to gaming.

Hi Sepherim

Not sure if you have an interest in transferring but if you do I’d like to recommend Hedonism on Ferguson’s Crossing.

We are a smaller guild that has only been inviting for about a month. We have several new and lower level players, like yourself and, though we have several members with level 80 characters, many of them like to run around the lower zones helping out where they can, or mapping and filling out zones by doing events so finding people to hang out with is usually just a matter of asking (if someone hasn’t offered first).

When you get a chance, take a look at our site, especially the “What is Hedonism” and the “Rules” posts in the information section and see if maybe we might be worth a transfer; http://hedo.guildportal.com

You can always guest with us first before you make any final decisions. If you have any questions, please feel free to message me here or in game at myenchantedlife.3729

Thanks for your time and good luck!

And lastly: you are awesome

Pffft… Well Yeah!

But seriously, I was thinking about your situation and wondered if someone had made an online community for women gamers. Some sort of hub where we can find information on which games, along with their servers and guilds, that are “safe” places for women players. Perhaps even include advice on how to handle and diffuse abusive players, I’m sure we all could, collectively, think of a lot of different things to include.

When I did a search I saw various attempts at the topic in general but, most were blog posts and news articles, nothing like what I am proposing. I am curious if there is any interest or need for this type of site or, would this perpetuate the illusion that we are somehow different from the male gamers.

Thoughts anyone?

Hi Zafira,

Hedonism on the Ferguson’s Crossing server has quite a few older members and at least 2 military personal (one currently deployed).

Our guild is casual, friendly and folks are glad to help out when asked. Our focus is PvE (Dungeons, Mapping, Achievements, etc) and WvW.

We don’t have a minimum age limit but I figure if people read and agree to our list of rules/expectations then they are adult enough to be given a chance. If you would like to check us out for yourself we are at http://hedo.guildportal.com

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me myenchantedlife.3729

Thanks for your time and good luck finding the best possible place for your family to call home!

I didn’t notice anyone else mention it but, there is another option; start your own guild. It can be a lot of work but, it can be very rewarding as well.

I have run into the “woman” issue forever; in jobs, “Oh you’re a manager?” click; in games, “Girls don’t play, just guys who lie.” and so on. And on and on…

When I read one of the comments that suggested you not bring being female up at all, I had to cringe. That just reminded me of trying to change my pronouns to hide the fact that I am a lesbian just because it might make someone uncomfortable. Pretending to be something I’m not makes ME uncomfortable.

Being a woman who games is who you are and trying to hide that from anyone is just ridiculous. You couldn’t and still be on Voice chat anyway. Well, I take that back, you actually can… for a while I had a guild who thought I was a young boy, but I digress lol.

Keep looking, you have a good handle on what you need and, if your research doesn’t pay off, seriously consider becoming a guild leader and paving the way for other competitive women. You never know who (women and men) might be interested in just what you have to offer. Don’t move to the “ghetto” as you said, build your dream house.

Hi Jet,

Hedonism on Ferguson’s Crossing is a nice place to call home.

Check us out at http://hedo.guildportal.com

We have lowbies and 80’s mixing in a laid back atmosphere. We do PvE (Dungeons, Mapping, Achievements, events, etc) and some WvW. A couple of us are interested in PvP but nothing serious.

Anyway, check us out when you have a chance and if I can answer any questions, please let me know.

Guild Members Responsabilities

in Guilds

Posted by: myenchantedlife.3729

myenchantedlife.3729

My background: I’ve run or been an officer of half a dozen guilds over various MMO’s.
Rozcinana is right, smaller guilds can have leaders/officers a lot busier than a large one, it’s just a different dynamic with small guilds. Larger ones tend to have lives of their own, smaller ones tend to be more personality driven and, for me at least, feel more like a family.

Your original question, “what are a guild member’s responsibilities?” has as many answers as there are options. Barzmon has a really cool idea but one that can go south really fast if you get a bad human being in there with you.

Having been bitten once or twice in the past, I tend to go with the traditional hierarchy in my guild. Get to know people and have them work their way up the ranks. One hopes to find Officers who are willing to share the “burden” of running a guild together, people willing to set up events and help get people organized and achieve their goals within the game, manage the guild bank and resources, recruiting, etc but, if there is no one willing to step up, then delegation becomes impossible (which is a problem that can be especially hazardous to a smaller guild). Anyone could be given any of those things to do and more so there is really no “right” answer to what a guild member’s responsibility is.

The first thing to do when creating a guild is to make a decision about what your goals are and how you plan to execute them; groundwork is the secret to avoiding the type of situation you mentioned. The hard part is to also write in room to adjust and rethink the rules as you grow and as things change.

I opened my personal guild to invites a month ago and, before I asked the first person to join, I had written my rules and expectations for the members and leadership and, I had even written a “So you want to be an Officer” letter, so people would know at every step what the expectation was. It doesn’t mean surprises won’t happen but, it helps to have a rudder in the water guiding the ship before you hit stormy weather.

Even though you aren’t in it any longer, your guild (with you in it) might still be saved; it just depends on the type of people you are dealing with, if they can forgive and forget the things that were said and move on to create a more complete vision so everyone understands what is expected of them. If they hold grudges, be glad you are done with them now.

Aside from that, you could always start your own guild but, being new to guilds and MMO’s I would not recommend that as a first course of action. The other option is to simply join another guild (or two or three) and see what you like and don’t like. There’s no harm trying several on for size. When you do though, I’d recommend giving it your undivided attention for at least a month (unless you know right away it doesn’t work for you), don’t rep other guilds in that time, just absorb the one you’re with, get to know the people in the guild.

Also, take some time to interview the guild leader or recruiter before you join. I get excited when I hear people want to shop around and ask me questions first, those are the type of thoughtful players I prefer. If the leadership can’t tell you what they want from a guild member, then don’t be surprised if they end up with similar problems to what you just left.

Anyway, if you have any questions please feel free to message me and you can also check out my guilds web site and see what I mean about putting those expectations out there in writing.

Best of luck,

Hi there,

I’m not sure if a server transfer interests you, if so, Hedonism on Ferguson’s Crossing might be worth checking out. http://hedo.guildportal.com

We’re a smaller, casual guild that mainly focuses on PvE (dungeons, mapping, achievements, etc.), with some WvW thrown in.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at myenchantedlife.3729

Best of luck on your search,

Hi Pumpernickle!

Hedonism on the Ferguson’s Crossing server is a small guild with the friendly atmosphere you described.

I feel the same way about MMO’s as you do; it’s the people who make the game special. The thing I miss most from my WoW days are the friends I made along the way.

If you’d like to check us out and see what I put in writing about the type guild I’m building, I think you’ll find it’s exactly the type of guild you’re looking for and would be proud to represent. Go to http://hedo.guildportal.com and read the What is Hedonism and The Rules sections so you can see what I am talking about. If you have any questions, please let me know myenchantedlife.3729

Thanks for your time and good luck on your search!

Hi MBlueD,

If you can’t find what you’re looking for on your current server, I believe Hedonism on the Ferguson’s Crossing server might be a good place to call home.

Until last weekend’s free server transfers we were a medium population server. Our WvW, if you’re interested in that, has been consistently sitting in the last spot. We occasionally get to number 2 but, it provides a great challenge for those people who are looking for one.

We are mainly focused on PvE and do a lot of mapping, dungeons, achievements and so on. Our members are real people with real lives so no one will shut you out when real life comes first.

If you would like to check us out our website is at http://hedo.guildportal.com
Thanks for your time and if you have any questions please feel free to contact me any time myenchantedlife.3729

Best of luck finding a great home!

Recruiting....how can I get it to work?

in Guilds

Posted by: myenchantedlife.3729

myenchantedlife.3729

Well there you go, Aye illustrates my point perfectly; you never know who is paying attention to you. :-D

But he makes an excellent point, the first thing I do when I get on the boards is check out the other posts and see what others have to say. Cookie cutter responses drive me nuts and if I were looking, I would automatically toss out their offer.
One poor soul on here has asked people who respond to name their favorite fruit. This is sad to me because this shows how rarely people actually take the time to listen to the people they want to recruit, and that person obviously realizes it as well.

A lot of people here have excellent advice (RisingDusk’s paragraph about Critical Mass is especially good) so take some time to read them twice (I did) and really think about what they have to say and how you can build on that for yourself.

Another thought that I had, but was too tired to mention this morning (it was 5 am and I had lost my first attempt at a post), was don’t be afraid to stop recruiting when you need to as well. A small guild is kind of like a fish tank, you have to float the new guys in the tank for a while so they can acclimate to the water. With the free server transfers our guild doubled overnight and I’ve stopped actively recruiting people so everyone has time to get to know each other. While I still post and respond to folks, I don’t actively look for them in the game and reach out to them.

I might lose out on some great people in the short-term but, in this instance, it is better for the climate within the guild to let a few people go now than it would be to have an atmosphere where people felt like they were just another number, which is what we with small guilds are trying to avoid in the first place.

And also don’t be afraid to say no. No to perspective members who you don’t feel would work out, and no to current members as well. I’ve had members of many guilds ask to be in officer positions but only for the prestige, not to actually have a hand in running the guild. Make sure the promotions you make matter and try not to appease people because you’re afraid they might walk.

Anyway, it’s time for happy hour but if I think of anything else I’ll post it here.

Continued luck!

Recruiting....how can I get it to work?

in Guilds

Posted by: myenchantedlife.3729

myenchantedlife.3729

I basically did the same thing as you, when I didn’t want to be member number 327 and I didn’t want to be in a guild that was never going to recruit, I made my own (or rather, I took the one I had made for extra bank slots and turned it into a real guild).

It is really hard recruiting at first, it takes a leap of faith to join a guild when it has only two, three and five members. But it does get better, once you get about ten people in your guild it becomes easier to recruit because you will have people on at various hours and more to offer perspective members.

One of the biggest mistakes when starting out is not knowing what you intend to build. I had been an officer/guild leader in a few MMO’s before and I was really clear about what I wanted from a guild and it’s members. I took a lot time coming up with my list of “expectations” for both members and guild management, not because there are a lot of rules, but because I wanted to be clear to everyone joining what to expect. That type of thing can save you a lot of trouble in the long run, not just running your guild in the future but now, by weeding out people who wouldn’t fit in with your vision.

The other HUGE mistake that I see is inviting anything with a pulse because you are desperate for warm bodies or numbers for your guild. Take some time to talk to them and find out what they need and pass when you can’t be that. It is much better for your reputation to be honest then it is to try to do something you hate, like PvP for example, just because you think you HAVE to do it/offer it to get someone to join.
Later on you may have people who will do it but, you won’t be trapped by offering something you really can’t provide.

If you’ve made it this far you deserve my two best secrets to guild building. First, work the boards like a fiend, get your message out there, you never know who might be reading your posts/reply’s. Second, group with people and just be generally helpful to people who need it. Relationship building is what it’s all about so put yourself out there and see who needs a hand.

It may be slow going at first but, if you hang tight and keep at it you will build a base in no time.

If you have any questions for me please PM me here or in the game, I’d be happy to help out as much as I can.

Best of luck!

Hi Jackal,

If you can’t find what you are looking for on your current server, I’d like to recommend Hedonism on Ferguson’s Crossing. What you wrote in your post is almost exactly what we have posted in our guild “rules” section on our web site.

We’re a small guild and plan on staying that way; we want to be large enough to do things together but small enough to know the people we are playing with.

We have a casual, mature atmosphere and never let the game interfere with that atmosphere. But don’t take my word for it, check out our website at http://hedo.guildportal.com and see if you agree. I think you two would fit i well with our goals as a group.

If you have any questions, please message me in game at myenchantedlife.3729 or via PM.

Thanks for your time and good luck wherever you find your new home!

In-Game Contact: myenchantedlife.3729

Focus: PvE (Dungeons, Mapping, Achievements, etc.) and WvW. Flirting with PvP but it’s nothing serious for most of us. A casual, close knit community.

Quick Notes: We are looking for friendly, helpful, supportive people, who want to foster a positive atmosphere for casual players with real lives.

We welcome players of all levels and abilities who want to build their GW2 home with us. Visit our site and see for yourself why you should be a Hedonist too!

We’ve grown quite a bit since I first posted this thread so I thought I would add a few things:

*We are a small guild and we plan on staying that way (we like to know the people we are playing with).

*If you are on another server; we allow guesting if you want to check us out before transferring.

*We are a LGBT friendly guild. Currently the vast majority of our members are straight but, what are ya gonna do? They’re everywhere!

*We mean it when we say we are casual, you won’t get kicked because real life got in the way. We respect your choice to have a job, a family and even a life where sunshine is involved.

Thank you for your time and good luck finding the right place to call “home” :-D

Hi Hawthorn,

I wanted to suggest Hedonism on Ferguson’s Crossing. We are a small PvE focused guild (Dungeons, Mapping, Achievements, etc) with a bit of WvW thrown in for good measure.

From what you’ve said here it sounds like we’d be a good fit for you and, from now until April 1, 2013, Anet is offering FREE Transfers to our server.

Fell free to visit our web site and look over our “rules” and see for yourself if we’d be a good place to call home. http://hedo.guildportal.com

If you have any questions, please contact me in game at myenchantedlife.3729

Thanks for your time,

Looking for a PvE guild (Sanctum of Rall)

in Guilds

myenchantedlife.3729

(broke like a hobo so can’t afford it)

From now until April 1, 2013 Anet is offering FREE transfers to medium population servers. With that in mind I’d like to suggest Hedonism on Ferguson’s Crossing.

We are a small, casual guild where everyone is friendly, helpful and the atmosphere is really nice. We have been PvE focused (Dungeons, Mapping, Achievements, etc) with some WvW and this week we have begun trying on PvP for size. Though not our main focus, it has been a blast.

If you’d be willing to check out site at http://hedo.guildportal.com and review the “rule”, I think you might like what you see. If you have any questions you can message me there or contact me in game at myenchantedlife.3729

Good luck on your search for a GW2 home!

Hope to hear from you soon,

Not sure if you are willing to transfer servers but if you are Ferguson’s Crossing has free transfers available for a short while.

Hedonism is a guild on that server. We are small; the kind of guild where you can get to know the people you are playing with. Everyone is friendly, and helpful and we have a nice laid back atmosphere.

I could go on but most everything you might want to know is available on our web site http://hedo.guildportal.com

Once there you check out our “rules” and see what we are all about. If you agree that we are a fit you can apply there and/or contact me in game (myenchantedlife.3729)

Thanks for your time and good luck wherever you decide to call home!

Well look not further, Hedonism on Ferguson’s Crossing is the home you are looking for. Rather than me try to sell you here, please take a minute to see for yourself what we put in writing in our guild rules http://hedo.guildportal.com

We are small and plan to stay that way, I don’t want a 300 person guild where I have no idea who I am playing with. We are very relaxed and drama free. If you have any questions for me I’ll be on most of the day today, and most every day :-)

Give us a shot, I think you’ll like what you see.

Thief looking for casual guild- Darkhaven

in Guilds

Posted by: myenchantedlife.3729

myenchantedlife.3729

We have four rules Hedonism and two of them boil down to “don’t be a jerk”.

We are a small guild on the Ferguson’s Crossing server so if you’re set on staying on Darkhaven then I guess our conversation is done.

However, if you don’t find what you are looking for and don’t mind changing servers, there then I’d encourage you to check out our site and see if maybe we might be a fit for you. http://hedo.guildportal.com

We are PvE focused and we do dungeons, achievements, and WvW as well. The atmosphere in the guild is really casual, we all have real lives and commitments so I think you’d fit in well. If you have any questions please let me know.

Thanks for your time!

If you are interested in a small PvE guild (we dabble in WvW too) I’d like to recommend Hedonism on the Ferguson’s Crossing server.
Most of us are ex WoW people and we are all levels so starting from scratch is not an issue. There is a really good, helpful vibe and everyone is willing to help out when you need it.

Take a minute to visit our web site and check us out http://hedo.guildportal.com/

I like your sense of humor. Hedonism is a small guild but I think you’d like the smart alecks you’d find there.

While there is no blow and no hookers, I’d let you buy me a drink, I would love to… talk cough, especially with your wife.

We could defiantly use some good looking folks who don’t take life (or gaming) too seriously.

Please contact me in game or via our website and we can see if we might be a fit.

A toast to your health,

Hi, I’m with Hedonism on Ferguson’s Crossing. Right now we are on the small side but we are actively recruiting and growing and the people we do have are an outstanding bunch. Chat is playful but respectful and everyone is, without exception, helpful and considerate.

There are people popping on at all hours but 3p.m. to 11 p.m. PST seems to be the strongest at the moment. We are getting people into dungeons, doing Jumping puzzles and trying out WvW (though we are mostly PvE focused).

I would love it if you would give us a shot, I think we would be a fit because we are all about building a community/family first. Everyone is very helpful and we are all experienced gamers. Our members are all levels atm. The ones with 80’s have alts so you that along with level scaling would mean you’d have people to play with when you wanted.

I don’t want to ramble on so please feel free to contact me in game and we can discuss if you and your fiancee (grats) feel like can find a home here. Also if you want to check out our web page I added it at the end.

Best of luck wherever you end up,
Vel
