The Storm Glaive is recruiting, and I know we have at least one member on Pacific time, and one on Mountain, plus one in New Zealand and one overseas on deployment, so our members’ hours are sort of all over the place.
And full transparency, we’re in a super slow period right now and it’s been hard to get folks online at all – so many people just don’t like the game right now – but we did get around 8 or 9 of us on for our crew meeting on Monday. And our members are great folks, I’m really proud of our guild culture. So we’re working on things that I hope will get attendance up, and one of those things is recruiting with full fair warning that while you’ll be able to have a big impact on the guild’s RP and there’s no chance you’ll get lost in a crowd, you’ll probably also find yourself alone a lot of the time until we can fix our activity problem.
We skew chaotic good, we don’t do grim-dark (though some members go to other guilds’ grim-dark RP events or have their own), and the basic theme is of a small, privately owned fleet of ships. We can do merchanting, adventuring, salvaging, privateering (NOT piracy), we can fight for the Alliance, steal from the Horde, invent things (one of our ships is a research vessel), etc etc etc. We built it that way so that our RP can go anywhere, because we want the guild to provide a framework for our members to tell their stories. In fact we’ve just introduced a new rank, Storyteller, for exactly that: members who are excited to help the guild and their guildies roleplay, tell stories, and have fun.
We also have alliances with guilds of both factions and neutral guilds (we are not neutral, but as Tyr put it recently, we know the difference between the cobra and the fawn – we also know the difference between the wolf that growls and the wolf that attacks, and happily make friends with the first). We’re part of the Azeroth Prosperity Initiative to foster cross-guild and cross-faction RP, and we participate in market events like the Shadowsands market, the Duskrose Wandering Market, and the upcoming Harvest Festival in Half Hill on Saturday. So we try to help our members find RP even when the guild itself is on the slow side.

Again, we are super slow right now. But we’re working on it.
