Hi everyone so recently I put a post up asking players that were leaving to join my guild because I wanted bank space. Less than 4 hours later I now have a guild with 53 people in it and precious hoarding space. But not because of the post.

Here are the steps and some tips.

Step 1: Create a Guild - Having a guild with only 10 members in it will grant the guild 500 bank space. The Guild Master aka YOU controls who is allowed to withdraw and deposit items in the guild
Step 2: Find Noobs to Join Guild - Noobs are the easiest and quickest to recruit. If you look for players under level 15 to join your guild it is not only helping you.

• It helps the noobs as they have people at their level to find to group with
• It helps higher level guilds that don't feel like helping these noobs
• It helps you because a lot of them will quit playing the game before their free month even expires. This is good because when they leave the game you can still use your guild bank but you don't have to socialize

Step 3: Set Guild Bank Permissions Make sure that all ranks cannot withdraw or deposit from the guild bank.
Step 4: (Optional) - After 2-3 Months sort the Guild roster by who is online because it also sorts by when they last logged in. If you have around 20 people that haven't logged in in 2 or 3 months thats good! Boot everyone else! Keep the inactives and now you have a guild full of inactives and you... ahh no one to bother you.

And thats it! Now it only took me 4 hours to recruit 53 people. Heres some tips to make the recruiting even faster.
Tip 1: Only Invite people at level 15 or lower - If you are running around sending random invites do it to the noobs. They won't get angry like higher level players. They are more likely to join because they don't have guilds or they don't know what they are doing. ITS WAY FASTER!
Tip 2: Go where the Noobs are - Have characters in all starter towns AND ALSO the tutorial dungeon. Keep rotating when you can't find new newbs to add.
Tip 3: Make sure you recruit more than 10 people - Having more than 10 peeps means when people leave your guild you will still be able to use your guild bank. People will leave when they either keep playing the game and get more guild invites or when they find out only you can use the bank. Or for my situation when they find out that there rank is called "Worthless Scum"
Tip 4: Allow them to invite players as well - Now this works well because they get you more people over time. Make sure you give VERY detailed instructions on how to invite in the "Message of the Day"

---

The reason this works so well is because you are recruiting noobs. Alot of players will find the game boring and after 4-5 hours might never log on again. These are our golden players... Once you have 9 of these "Quitters" than you don't have to ever worry about losing your guild bank access. Until than just make sure that your chat options for the guild are set to off.

Hope this helps someone!
