    Meanwhile I am here inviting people I like to my guilds so we can keep in touch as my friendlist already reached the maximum of 100. (The trick is to create a note about the person so you never forget who they are and how you met. That way you will always be good friends even though your memory is bad :3)

    It's not so much that, its so much the salt train you get hit with when you pat their buttchecks, and they die-- THEN they figure out you a blue.

    They are nearly all the same and players come and go all the time. Seems like a waste of time to always be quitting and joining again when you are going to get the same experience 9/10 times, but if you enjoy it, then please continue. Its harmless imo.

    @Paraflex was my GM for my pvp guild. The entire guild is dead but it’s my home. My other guild is a fairly new guild all Aedra of Nirn. Bunch of friendly people and because it’s not a giant guild you get to know people. I tend to stick with guilds unless something terrible has happened.

    I don’t know if I’m the only one but I never stay in guilds long. I like to jump from guild to guild meeting new people.

    Staying in one guild for to long you meet people you don’t get along with and also limit the amount of friends or cool people you can meet in game. I play MMORPGs for the social part of them.

    If I find people I click with then I add them as a friend and keep in touch. I know GMs don’t like this and think poorly of people like me.

    I wanted to know if there was anyone else that use guild as just a way to find more like minded people with out getting into all the drama that seems to unfold if you stay to long. Not so much as you are the one starting it but other memebers fighting or starting issues within guilds.

    I met some amazing people and love playing with them just not the whole guild. When ever I leave I get pms from an angry guild master or people wanting to know why. Its just a personal thing and it’s the best way I found to meet people.

    I also like to help new guilds get started I’m a max cp pvp and pve player and crafter. So I’ll join help out new ppl then leave once it’s going. I never ask for anything from the guild or take anything.

    I think I do this but without any intentions of doing so. My intention is to fully commit to a guild but I often end up leaving for various reasons. I have made friends from former guilds but just a handful. Most of the people I play with that are on my friend list are from just doing dungeons. Few are friends I made on various forums.

    As an officer in a guild Khajiit understands your perspective yes.

    However perhaps all that is required before you leave is a polite explanation to the guild leader of why you are leaving?

    We make great efforts, at least in the Imperial Trading Company, to be friendly and helpful to other guild members and if someone suddenly left then we would just be curious why - if perhaps something had been done to upset them or we were just not the sort of guild they were seeking.

    I'm a Khajit myself.. where do I apply? I'm not a spy or anything by the way.

    Hmm, other than my Trading Guild, my guild list has not changed in years.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    I'm the exact opposite. Once i find a guild i like, i will stay until the bitter end.

    One of my 5 guilds went completely dormant for a while with nobody but me logging in for months, but i still stayed. Then for some reason people started coming back and now it's the most active of my guilds.

    I wonder why the last MMO I played guilds would be around for years and ESO they don’t seem to last very long.

    The only guilds I don't have much of a connection to is my trading guilds.

    The social and raiding guilds I generally tend to stick to and spend time with.

    I can't say I'm perfect though, as my first social guild I was in for about 6 months before all the players just stopped playing and its lonely being the only one online. So I left.

    My other social guild I've been apart of for a year and still enjoy spending time with guildmates. It's also large, about 60+ players online during the weekdays at peak time.

    As for raiding guilds, I have one primary raiding guild that I've stuck to (although I haven't raided since Homestead, I'm grateful for staying in their guild).

    I've helped mentor players in other raiding guilds, and those ones I've tended to guild hop.
    Make PC NA raiding great again!

    Down with drama!

    I have been in the same trade guild since May 2014 and my guild was est. 4/13/14, my PvP guild has been around since Wabbajack days, so yes, there are a LOT of guilds from launch still active... :)

    I've been cross factioning on the same map since it was first allowed...because i spend most of my game time in cyrodiil, back in the day when I used to group, I would get invites from pvp focused guilds quite a bit...

    cause of the cross factioning thing and showing up on guild rosters and death recaps at the same time - for about a six month long period I lost count of how many guilds I had been kicked out of...

    one of the guilds I'm in now which maintains prime guild trader locations and a strong pvp presence let's folks know that on wednesdays they gotta play red...simple enough rule for me...thankfully haven't been kicked yet from that guild...

    I have 3 guilds I stay in. Two are trade guilds that let me stay without any hassles so I will never quit. I've heard all the trade guild horror stories and don't want to risk it. The third is a guild of nice friendly people so I stay.

    But I keep two slots for "trial" guilds. I'll accept random invites just for the fun of it or I'll respond to guild advertisements and join. I've tried out many guilds of all kinds but always eventually quit to try another. I'll wait till its late or early and then leave guild lol.
    I like that the game allows you the freedom to join and try out more than one guild.
    But I would prefer if guilds were not account wide.
