LoL at the fourth option.

While I Co-founded a guild way back in Beta, I have since left the guild do to time restrictions. I still however have a problem with my Guild slots always being full.

I'm GM for a small guild that's basically just me and a bunch of my real life friends. We've got our guild bank and tabard unlocked, and we get together for dungeon runs and such every now and then.

I also (on my second account) somehow ended up as GM of a different small guild where I seem to be the only member who still plays... I'm not quite sure how I ended up as GM of that guild, but as of right now it's basically just a personal guild bank for me, since nobody else in it has logged on in 8+ months.

I'm in another guild that is larger and more active than the 2 small guilds I GM, and that's the guild that I most often socialize with. It's a casual cross-faction guild that runs a lot of entirely optional events, and that's full of very helpful people, and I've had a lot of fun in it since I joined a couple of months ago.

I was referring to your spelling of trading. Looks like you had a little raiding on the mind when writing it. Just a little snicker I had, nothing more.

LoL, Well I still can't edit it,,,,, *bows head in shame* All I can say is sometimes my typing skills seem to have a mind of their own

I am in two social guilds, and two trading guilds, although one of them does not do that much trade, I do find some good bargains listed there. I have one other guild slot that I assign as needed.

I belong to multiple social guilds, still trying to find one with an active guild store though. All the guild stores only have high vet equipment or small stacks of easy to find mats... how do I merchant?

I have helped found, and currently co-lead a few guilds. Just a bunch of guys and gals havin fun.

"belong" implying im a guilds property?

No, this meaning -

be a member or part of (a particular group, organization, or class).
"they belong to garden and bridge clubs"
synonyms: be a member of, be in, be affiliated to/with, be allied to, be associated with, be linked to, be an adherent of
"I belong to a book club"

Edit: yep that is a copy and paste, I admit I looked it up to make sure

With 100% intentions of playing console I've decided not to ruin a PC guild by joining knowing I'd be leaving whoever. Trading guilds only

No. Never joined a guild in this game.

I'd imagine there are several horrified at the statement, but I did not join a guild until I was convinced to 2 months after starting and several weeks after hitting Level 50 -- the Guild and Guildless lives are good, in different ways.

Not in any guilds.

I was in guilds during all my former MMOs though and did lead two to a top spot on tournaments, but todays generation just takes away all the fun of being in a guild. It starts with TS and ends with Addons and min / maxing, attendances to trials or even paying gold to join.

Too often did I come back after a months break and found myself kicked or young ones shouting in TS how someone failed and they now lost out on an epic.

Gaming companies made big mistakes in how they implemented guilds. Joining a guild should never reward you with items, trade slots, bank slots or vanity loot. It should be a voluntary thing and not a forced one. Guilds have become so hostile and unsocial as every members activity and time influences the success and rewards for all members.
Back in the days we invited people we liked to our guilds and still won tournaments. Today you must file a long application first, then go to a interview on TS and then get a hundred rules to follow. That's just nothing for me, so I stay solo

Boy, I'm sure glad that hasn't been my experience! My most active guild is all about being social, having fun, and helping each other out. None of this min-maxing, mandatory attendance, paying to join, or yelling at people who "failed".

Guilds are OP, nerf them.

Opps, sorry wrong thread.

I'd love to be in a traditional MMO guild where people join for social reasons and to help each other progress through the game .. sadly ZOS perverted the whole concept of guilds to build this facile excuse for an in-game economy.

My guild is built and run in the same way we have for years in different games and aims to uphold that ethos.
