Yeah I was considering joining a guild once that seemed normal. They seemed like they weren't going for hardcore mode, and then I got to the app. They wanted specifics about prior raiding experience (seems legit), availability with reasons for not being available (what? mofuggers I checked your raid schedule and if it didn't line up why would I apply), and the final straw was a linked SpeedTest run. I about lost my poop on that part. Personally I don't want to give someone a look at my IP address EVER, even when I'm using my standard dynamic one, but I darn sure don't want some dillweed I don't know to have my static IP address (yeah I do have one) because I forgot to change my network settings before running this thing. I mean seriously WTF? WHY? Why would you need that for ANY guild let alone a guild that wasn't going for super duper hardcore world first runs?

I took your advice and finally joined a nice and active guild. My WoW experience has been so positive since then. I have always struggled with anxiety so I went with a guild who had some members who were aware of that, and I am so glad I did that! I am so glad I took your advice. Even when I am not the happiest with the game itself at times, playing along with a guild has made it fun all the same.

Great video. A few comments from my own experience, when I applied and join what was at the time the top horde raiding guild on my server, during BC. I actually believed all of these things about raiding guild (except for 2). But I wanted to experience raiding, so I figured I would bite to bullet and actually try it out. 5) The guild leader was awesome. He let everyone know that he had full confidence in them. When there was a wipe, he asked what happened (no yelling) because he wanted to fix things. The only time we heard any "negative" emotion from him is if someone really did something completely newbish. Then you just heard him whisper to himself (over vent for everyone to hear) "f*ck me", followed by "Rez up and do it again". The fact that he trusted us all, if you had fucked up, that "f*ck me" did hurt a lot more than yelling. So next time don't stand in the fire... 4) The application is not only to see if you are good for the guild, but if the guild is good for you. You should have seen the guilds I did not apply to: "Our vent is not for kids. Once a member described a sexual encounter that involved blood and vomit...." It may be just me, but that was not the kind of stuff I want to hear when I am raiding. So I did not apply. 3) I got upgrades throughout my first raids. Ok, so I had to wait a while for my Dragonspine Trophy (look it up kids). But who cares? I had plenty of other upgrades that improved my character greatly in the mean time. 2) If you are in the right guild, with compatible people, you won't have to "act" social all the time. It will come naturally as you will soon have plenty of friends. 1)I fucked up so much on my first raid. I was a nice corpse for most of the Gruul fight, and even managed to die on Loot Reaver. At the end of the raid, I said to the assistant that had recruited me that I was sorry and that I was really nervous during the raid. He just said "You did fine. You worry too much"

I'm starting to think I'm extremely lucky... I've been raiding with the same guild for 12 years now, our core is a tight knit group of friends, who enjoy playing games together, none of us knew each other when we started playing WoW, now we meet IRL many times a year, some of us have met their girlfriends, boyfriends, wives and husbands through the guild etc, and we're far from hardcore, we're focusing on HC raiding mostly, with plans on doing mythic once we're comfortable stepping into it. We've had many, many many members in our guild over the years, most have left for more hardcore guilds, or stopped playing, but no one has ever left because of bad experience with us, I think anyway. We've grown so comfortable with each other that it's really hard for me to see how my WoW life would be without my guild. It's just... always been there it seems. I don't know why I went on this rant tbh, maybe to tell ppl that there are nice guilds out there, maybe just to gloat about my good fortune, who knows.

Thanks Preach your videos are really great and i wish i'd seen them a few months ago when i started playing. I'm new to WoW and got invited to join a guild early on after running a random dungeon with the leader while leveling. It seemed like a cool group and they were helpful and generous and friendly and it felt like i had a family of sorts in WoW. TWO MONTHS later, when i've been on almost every single day participating in guild chat and activities, i'm whispered one night by the guild leader asking me to remind him all my alt names (all were in the guild, as was common in that guild). No problem; i know he keeps lists. Next thing i know he's whispering that he's kicking me no particular reason he can identify just doesn't think our personalities are compatible. He didn't ask me to leave, and he didn't give any tangible reasons, he just kicked me. It was so stupid and so stupidly done that I very nearly quit wow after that. So for those thinking about venturing into a guild for the first time, let me offer you just a few points of advice i've learned after my experience with the sociopath in that first guild: 1) Don't join a guild named after the leader. There are some ego issues here that i don't think really need explanation. 2) If the leader periodically goes through and purges a bunch of people from the guild, find out what the reason is. If membership is subject to capricious or unspecified rules you're not going to be safe. 3) Don't get too attached to your guild. Some people don't really care, but others do and it's dangerous with something as arbitrary as a guild.

@@wackantheduck6883 Wow this is a throwback! There were two guilds that I joined in Legion, I think this was the second one. They lasted a tier, had an internal meltdown because it turned out the GM and her lackey were mental and more than half of us went on to form another guild that’s still going today. We usually cleared HC and couldn’t move into mythic as it was a fairly casual environment and couldn’t always make up the 20 decent players required. I don’t play anymore, came back in BFA for a bit, but bounced off of 8.3 and couldn’t get into Shadowlands for similar reasons and irl changes. Still got friends that raid with them though!

5 Guild Truths: 5, The older the guild you join the less likely you'll be part of the revered inner circle. You might as well make your own guild, recruit until you get a full raid group then never let anyone in. 4, Chances are that the guild is created by some IRL friends, and officer chat is almost exclusively about them talking about their personal lives. Everyone else is secondary, especially when one of the "bros" is a dick but won't get removed because "he's one of us". 3, Every time you join a guild you're exposed to IRL RNG, in the sense that it might be a good one, it might be a bad one. You cannot know without spending some time with the guild. Sometimes it's minutes of seeing their chat, sometimes it's a month or so of hopeful but ultimately fruitless thumb-twiddling. 2, However shitty guilds can be, they will still forever be more reliable than pugs. Sure, we all had awesome pugs but usually you avoid it if you can. 1, Guilds are an obligatory aspect of lategame PvE content, meaning that you're in essence gambling a lot of time and money on getting into a good guild and having a good experience. Therefore, you might enjoy what the game has to offer but you will be forever denied it by IRL RNG.

I remember a guild I had been in for a long time, since the end of MoP, always had the same 10 person raid group and never accepted anyone else despite the guild having over 900 members. For a while I didn't care, I didn't even raid so why would I? But when Legion launched I decided I wanted to try raiding and other end game content that wasn't just doing LFR every week working towards a legendary that I'd never actually use the active on myself and so when mythic dungeons were first put out a couple guildies and I went to do mythic HoV, around that time the gear was all ilvl 840 or so and the average ilvl was 825, and after over 2 hours of wiping on a mix of Hymdall and Odyn we finally completed the dungeon and got the guild the Halls of Valor guild run achievement, shortly afterwards myself and the other two guildies were kicked from the guild with no reason given. Now, I spit on my old GM every time I see him in Dalaran, as petty as that may seem.

I joined a guild several years ago that I was told that it wasn't a raid guild. Shortly after I joined, like 3 months, the GM and the officers decided they wanted to raid and expected everyone in the guild to be available at their beck and call when they wanted to raid. It was only after I never signed up for any of the guild raids, that I had a talk with the GM about why I wasn't signing up for the guild raids. I worked nights and I couldn't devote my time just before I had to work to raid just for them. I brought up that I wasn't told it was a raid guild when I joined, and the GM told me it wasn't a raiding guild. I then asked where the issue was that I didn't sign up. And she said that it was more of an issue of me not being team player. I said that I would be happy to sign up on the days I didn't work, and I asked if the raid days could be moved to the weekends. And I was told that they wouldn't do that for just one person. I told the GM that it's funny how when they want something from someone they demand that person rearrange their whole out of game life just to accommodate the people in a video game, but when a person needs something, they couldn't be bothered to accommodate them. Yeah I was promptly removed from the guild after I told them there was no way I was going to change my life outside of WoW so that they could get a few pieces of game loot. Yeah! I was the one that wasn't a team player in that guild!

Ok, so my situation is as follows: no mic, don't want a mic. Also, WoW is a low priority for me and frequently gets dropped from my routine because I just have more important stuff to do. Given these facts, I've come to believe that a "real" guild is just not something I can have, at any level of play. The closest I can come is what you call "cesspool" guilds. Am I wrong?

Yes you are wrong, as someone who has dropped in and out of a lot of guilds there is always a spot for someone who might want jsut put a potion in the guild bank. Hell if you sign up as a casual for raiding guilds is a very easy app process since you don't have any expectations or leave any down. Just look at G chat and think of it as a means that when your on ask if anyone in G chat has alts and would like to do what you want to do or join up in a place higher than pug caliber of people who can do stuff with again. Hell in a mythic guild I was in the casuals would give the raiders better prices on consumables and enchants as a means to make tons of gold and trade it for runs. If you can type and not expect the world as a casual and take a few chances to do things, you can type in chat and just listen in voice coms. Even some big raiding guilds the amount of support needed to jsut have tons of of raid food was all given by people who can't make it to raid time but wanted to help in some little way, jsut don't forget to say GL if you do happen to get online on raid time always makes you look good XD.

if you want to raid, then yeah, it would be quite difficult, maybe impossible, to find a decent guild. mic is only required so you can call out game specific stuff like "cant soak", "will interrupt next", "need external cd", etc... no need to be social, or even say hello or goodbye... and specific time commitment is a trade off for hours of waiting in queues or hours of waiting for healer replacements after every wipe. basically, do you want to clear your wednesday and thursday evening schedule, log inboth days at 19:30 and raid = fight bosses almost non stop, from 20:00 to 23:00, or do you want to log in whenever you feel like it, spend 30 minutes signing up for pugs, another 15 minutes waiting for everyone to gather, and then 10-20 minutes of waiting for new people after each wipe, or everytime a healer has to leave? however if you just want a guild to have some people to talk to, or to run dungeons with, or whatever else, when you do find some time to play wow, then just listen to what sayuameangkis is saying.

I talked to some officers and now I'm part of a nice dutch raiding guild doing heroics every wednesday and thursday evening (we're 6/7 atm.). Can't remember ever having so much fun in an MMO. The reason I never did this before is because I thought all guilds were super demanding with 0 room for mistakes but surprisingly everyone is really friendly and gearing is far less time consuming than with pugs.

What happens is, even if you come in with 0 DKP, bottom of the DSK list, or you're only allowed to /roll for gear that any other members have rolled on, there's going to be a lot of pieces that either everyone who is eligible already has, or doesn't want. You might be getting a lot of scraps, but if you're in a good guild, there's plenty of scraps that will catch you up quick.

You're in a guild that still uses DKP? Call a museum, 'cause that's where DKP belongs. Seriously.

Back when I still played my guild was literally the best maybe not in the sense we were hardcore mythic raiders or anything like that but because of the community. One of the GM's was literally my other mom and she helped through a lot of day to day things that I didn't necessarily feel comfortable bringing up with my parents.

Honestly, that #1 is spot on. I hear that the most out of people I've played with that aren't quite up to par to where my guild currently raids. They think that just because they aren't at a Mythic progression level, they're not good enough for ANY guild and they think that we perform well all the time. Mistakes are expected. Mythic guilds just ask that you fix them a little faster due to the more punishing nature of mechanics in higher difficulties. That's probably the biggest difference. If you can learn to fix mistakes faster and by yourself, you're a Mythic raider.

Second week doing raids with the guild and trials don't have priority so no tokens for me, and i don't mind since trial. I'm a Boomkin with helm+back leggy and 2 pieces of tier 20 from before joining the guild. A total of 6 tokens drop and is used on gambling titanforge for the new people who joined that week but already befriended some of the raider rank people and gm. I did not rage but did leave the guild right after.

As a Guild leader i approve of this message. We are by no means the best guild ever and i love guys and gals.(Just got 7/7 heroic last week, and a few pulls on Mythic Nythynrda) Any time I bring in a trial, you can just tell how nervous people are about messing up mechanics or trying to be the best DPS ever that they end up playing worse than normal. The best advise i can give to people apping to a guild is go in have FUN (as thats why we all play this game) and remember no one is perfect just play at your level and if its a fit great if not there are pleanty of fish in the sea!

#1 reminds me of why I left a guild at the end of Cata. We were doing the ooze boss in Dragonsoul where you need to use only big heals, because when you heal someone 5 times they explode. I was watching the other healers' cast bars to figure out why we kept blowing up, and saw one of them using his efficient heal. I kept saying "use your big heals" "only use your biggest heals". Finally, he goes "I am using my big heals" and I yelled "YOU'RE USING NOURISH!" Well, after the raid I got talked to by our GM, and he said he wanted to make sure that I didn't yell at anyone again. I said, if nobody screws up that bad and lies about it, I won't have to yell. But he said he wanted to know what I would do to make sure I didn't yell at anyone again, so I left the guild.

Guilds I've been in have expected you to show up to raid, but also expect you to be prepared when you do. It's less important for most of the content now, but in the past, it wasn't just "show up on time". It was to show up on time, have all your consumables ready, have your gear gemmed and enchanted, have read up on any fights you're doing that night. Basically, show up, but show up prepared to raid, which would require more work than just showing up. Back in Vanilla/TBC, there were generally more requirements as far as contributing to guilds (farming mats, helping people level) but as things have gotten more lenient on consumables these have been less of a requirement.
