If you want the more mature player then a late night raiding guild maybe the answer, people who work and have families struggle for time to play and raid so when then do get the chance they very rarely let the other members down.

Most "late night" guilds are pretty good. The problem that we faced with our guild was the first 6 months were great. It was friendly, everybody in for the same reasons. Then the burnout stage started, late night starts and finishes, kids and jobs and people started to tire. We then had to recruit to fill the gaps that started appearing so people could continue to raid, but in may cases those holes were filled with people that were not necessarily only able to raid late.

Shame, I loved my old guild, but slowly after time the rep that we built as a solid friendly and effective raiding team (that raided later in the evenings) was our downfall as we attracted people that wanted the solid and effective raiding but were not so much bothered by the friendly and late night aspect.

Class and role specfic encounters are always guild killers. Dual specs have eased this problem slightly with role, but how many times did we have to cancel raids or really really struggle due to not having a druid tank or a DK* not signing up.

* A DK with half a clue on how to play their class, I know not having a DK sign for a raid is a rare event, but we needed ones with the basic knowledge of not gripping Malygos.. or even not gripping anything at all for example.

Like many people on this forum and others I am more than a little sick of the rudeness and lack of manners and general immaturity that goes on in WoW these days (I play Horde on EU Grim Batol). I almost dont identify with the guild I am in any more, the amount of crap, smacktalk and elitism makes it virtually pointless to remain.

However, I am convinced that there is a market for a guild which has fairly strict maturity standards - to get in the guild you have to be mature and polite! Name calling, nerdrage over vent, "WTF n00b LTP retard" etc will all be banned in my guild - it will be more akin to a gentlemans club where like minded wow players can come and actually be in a guild which focuses on the social aspect without any of the nonsense that goes on in the trade channel.

I shall call my guild "The Chivalrous" or "The League of Gentlemen" or "Rutherford Lodge" or somesuch name. I really think that it may attract a decent following for Cata.

So, is there any hope for a guild like this? Or are we, the decent chaps of WoW, simply too few to make a difference? I would be interested to hear what you think - its the best MMO out there and with the right social side could be perfect.

If you're on Grim Batol Horde and want to join the revolution send me a PM :)

I'd be interested if I would be allowed to re-roll a level one for it as I really can't afford to change faction/server. Would be interested in either an Enhance/Resto Shaman or a Feral Druid.

I'm re-rolling with the OCUK re-roll guild, but i'm finding myself bored without a guild and on a bad realm at the moment so I would love to join you if this is permitted.
 
First night on LK HC last night, 20 tries down, and people are getting the fight, getting solid into P2 now, just wait until they see the frostmourne room :P We've had 11/12 hm's on farm for 4 weeks now, but we was getting peoples drakes ect, so didn't bother with LK HC.

Really enjoying progressing on a boss like LK after all of this boring stuff blizzard have given us. Good to see something challenging.
 
arthas heroic was allways going to be *****, they couldnt of made such a lore character easy for people ;)

im actually really sad he is dead in lore, his story was what got me into warcraft
 
ya Argent Dawn is good server (just stay away from the RPee)

Darkmoon Faire is also a good one

I prefer to play on RP servers not because of RP, just because "MOST" of the time the general maturity level seems to be higher than on PVP/Normal

My guild is the same, we one shot everything up to LK25 HC and then spend the rest of the week wiping to stupid indivdual errors (which I of course never make! ;) ). Some nights it feels like we might kill him then other nights it feels like even a 5000% damage buff wouldn't help. It's like teaching people to move from Defile all over again.

Hard modes have sucked all the joy out of ICC for most of my guild and we're now struggling to put raids together. Time to level my army of alts in time for Cataclysm I think.

At least I got my 25 man ICC drake eventually though, it's still pretty rare on my server unlike the 10 man one now. :cool:

Aye, just extract the skinner folder into /interface/addons/ and you should be ready to roll.

If it doesn't work it may be because you need the saved variable for the WTF folder, if you have problems give me a shout and i'll upload that for you aswell.

My guild is still stuck on sind heroic for the last 2 months due to a variety of factors.

We have lost a lot of our core raiders to summer and being burnt out so we haven't really had the numbers a lot of the time to get into the swing of things, and when we have it's a mixed bag.

Some times it looks good, our first night on her we had her to 7% within a couple of tries, other times it's just banging our heads against a wall because people seem to be just too simple minded to figure out that breaking the ice blocks before the air phase is over is a bad thing.

We also lost a few people over the shadowmourne debacle, one of our officers, a warrior got our first shadowmourne, the chest from lich king and then a couple of days later left the guild and faction changed to a horde guild on the server.

The major kicker is in the leaving post he posted on the guild forums is that he claimed he was unhappy for at least a month, and that he didn't know if he would be playing wow and that it would take him a while to find a new guild, yet within two hours of leaving us he was already in his new guild.

It happens, we've had 3 of our healers quit/join other guilds all with legendary maces. Our old maintank too. Then our first SM left after 3 weeks of having it, joined a guild to get lk hc kill then left them and is now a social with us.

3 of the players that left were officers. and we've lost a lot of our core. In the last 3months we have 4/5 of us that have been there since TOGC!!! rest is all new bodys, we have just started to get the progress up again. And things are looking good for us again. Getting a very stable core again.
 
ooo new dragon to kill :p Maybe that is something to look forward to on friday :D

Is there hard modes to it ? I have to say I havnt really been following MMO for a while.
