The Laughing Llamas [LOL] is a North American guild operated primarily by U.S. military veterans.
We are based in the Maguuma server and focus on WvW roaming/fighting.
Key Points:
- Constant WvW
- Weekly Guild Missions (currently Thursdays @ 9PM EST)
- Guild Hall
- 20+ active members
- Active Discord server
- U.S. military are especially welcome
General Information:
When not in WvW we do general PvE work to include Meta Events, Trains/Farms, Dungeons, Fractals, and the occasional Raid.
We tend to decide as a group what to do at any given time depending on the number of online players and their willingness to gather and participate. Doing things in PvE as a guild is usually to help other players achieve a goal (mastery points, hero points, etc). Choosing to “do your own thing” is perfectly understandable and accepted. There are always members willing to group up for just about anything, so you never have to go at it alone.
Though we have a solid daily player base, expanding our number of active members will help tremendously and allow us to organize more events to benefit all members.
This is a videogame. We treat it as such and we aren’t hardcore. Everyone in the guild has work or college and friends and family that come first. We don’t care if you die while with the group in WvW or you accidentally jump off a cliff during a fractal (but expect to be made fun of, naturally). We won’t cry if you don’t have full ascended gear or a legendary weapon (we can help get you there). We don’t ask you to stop representing us if you die a lot in front of other random people on the internet. We aren’t about the drama that seems to plague not only guilds, but the community as a whole.
For us, GW2 is more like a hobby. We simply want more players to join us so that we can all collectively enjoy the game to its full extent. Playing GW2 is much more enjoyable (and a whole hell of a lot easier) when you have a reliable group to communicate with, especially in WvW.
About Us Personally:
Again, the guild is ran by U.S. military veterans, but we have plenty of members not affiliated with the U.S. military and welcome everyone from all backgrounds/cultures. The guild leadership is consistently online and on Discord. When not online, leaders are always reachable through the Discord app for Android/iPhone via our text channels.
Please note that we are not a family-friendly guild but we are tolerant of the life choices of others and respect each other. Friendly banter/trash talking however, is commonplace to include strong language and coarse/rude/dark humor. Because of this, we recommend you look elsewhere if you recognize yourself to be easily offended by things like this.
Requirements:
Full membership status will be awarded upon the completion of one guild mission event and two PvP/WvW events with a Legionnaire ranked member or above (Centurion/Tribune/Imperator).
Feel free to be a part of other guilds so long as you complete the above initial requirement and participate in a minimum of one guild event/activity a week while representing [LOL]. At the same time, we understand that players are busy with work, school, family, and friends. We are reasonable people and understand that real life takes precedence.
If you choose not to actively represent [LOL] you will not be kicked, but you will not qualify for promotions. To qualify for promotions, you must consistently represent [LOL] and actively participate throughout the week to include joining the voice channel in Discord.
The Requirement for participating in guild events/activities also decreases as your rank in the guild increases. This is because higher ranking members are not only more trusted, but tend to be more active overall and thus can be excused from missing events/activities more leniently.
No Current Requirements For:
- Character Classes/Levels
- Ascended/Legendary Gear
- Experience/Skill
- Guild Donations
- Discord (though highly encouraged)
- Age (so long as we feel you’re mature enough)
If you represent The Laughing Llamas and show a willingness to be an active part of the crew, we will be more than happy to help you either directly or with advice/recommendations.
