Guild Finder Users!

For some reason, ZoS didnt put mandatory to put contact person in guild recruitment. When you put your guild there, PLEASE write contact persons name. Its kind of stupid to just apply to guild if want to know more of it before.

Busy guilds are not going to want to respond to bunch of questions, that is kind of the point the point of the guild finder to make recruiting less work by putting the important info on the page. At the end of the day it's a game not a job and guild leaders want to play too, not respond to a bunch of mails when they have to already have to answer mails from their members.

Actually there's option after applying for guild Master or officers to message people. So maybe just say would like more information in application?

As a guild master I agree with above. Apply and mention in the application you are actually looking for more info and want to be contacted. This way it goes to all available officers rather than a single point of contact that may be away or unavailable for some reason.

Yes I think people should ask on the application if there is something that they need in any guild they join. Alternatively, just join and take a look around if the guild has a Discord server etc.. and if it’s not right then switch. We have no problems with people trying us out.

Maybe if its casual guild. Or trading guild, you dont have to interact with people. I hope you are not GM with that attitude btw. By what you saying, you be more happy in single player games. And the contact person does not have to be GM.
Before I would join any more serious guild what ever that might be pvp pve, I would like to exhange few words with peoples in charge.

I interact with people all the time. That is the problem. I have no peace a lot of the time, the little time I do have to get things done. When there wasn't a guild finder. My ad would say mail or message me for questions, because. 1. I could only put a small amount info in a guild ad. 2. There wasn't so many responses because the guild ad in zone doesn't recruit the entire game 24-7 like the guild finder does. I have to deal with a lot of questions already. From experience, more often then not it's because they didn't read something closely or didn't even bother to try.

I'm a GM of large trading guild. It's a ton of work and I do interact with people. Way more than anyone should have to without being paid real money. Most people in the game would not put with as much as I do, and if I made my officers put up with a lot of it, they'd quit because they'd be like "This is BS! I am trying to play game and I have to respond these messages over and over again because people don't like to read!" lol. Everything they need to know is on the Guild Finder ad. There should be any need for a customer service dept. and I'm certainly not going to invite more questions when we already have plenty to deal with. What we are going to do is direct people to Discord and put a FAQs on there. So no, it's shouldn't something that is mandatory. May be you have more hand-holdy guilds in mind. But not every guild is that kind of guild.
