Game: WoW Classic - Hardcore Anniversary
Server: Doom Howl
Faction: Horde
Guild: Shadow Wizard Money Gang
Hi,
I was directed to post here by a GM after submitting a ticket. Around 6/19 at approximately 17:00 server time, our guild on Doom Howl suddenly appeared to vanish. Dozens of members reported losing access to guild chat, the roster, and guild functions — but no one was kicked or left the guild manually.
Some of us can still see sporadic messages show up in guild chat, though I haven’t seen one in over 24 hours, but when we try to type ourselves, we get the error: “You do not have permission to speak.” The guild no longer shows up in the Guild tab either. It’s as if the guild still exists in the background but is partially desynced or corrupted. It now seems like the guild has entirely disappeared.
We have a very active community, including a Discord with over 1000 members, and we’re trying to understand what caused this. A GM responding to one of our tickets mentioned it may be a "visual or data sync issue affecting guild systems.”
If this is a known bug or a data issue that can be resolved on the backend, we’d really appreciate any help or confirmation that this is being looked into. If there is anything we can do on our end please let us know. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time.
Sincerely, Talonthree

I am also in this guild and all of my characters are unable to use any guild features. This is really killing the vibes and making it difficult to play with my friends. This is the worst glitch I’ve ever encountered in my many years of paying for and playing WoW… considering canceling my subscription until this is fixed. Someone help us!

Can confirm i logged out and in while others were experiencing this issue. Once i logged in i saw no guild tag under myself, yet guild roster showed everyone as offline. Upon joining a different guild i was seeing the original guild’s chat messages.
As it stands this bug seems to only be impacting Shadow Wizard Money Gang somehow. Anyone who logs in are perceived as guildless and able to join another guild while retaining ties to SWMG somehow. Please send help ;-;
Can confirm, randomly lost my guild tag, but was able to see guild chat completely find for those who were still tagged and able to type in guild. Typing would say that “I did not have that permission”.

I am on Dreamscythe 20th anniversary servers and experiencing the same issue. Extremely frustrating bug and the communication received from customer service is egregious. Was told to wait until Tuesday and reach back out if I still can’t access guild functions.
I got a tattoo of my guild tag and now I look like a fool, Blizzard please save my honor ASAP.

Real talk don’t feel like logging in anymore. I feel all alone in this great world. Please can we invest more resources into fixing this. Removing addons, clearing cache, nothing works. We need human intervention.

PLEASE HELP US!! My quality of life has declined significantly since losing our guild. They had us join an ingame channel but I can’t read text that isn’t green

Still no fix to this, been going back and forth with gms for 4 days now
From what I’ve heard from another friend of mine having the same issue on Dreamscythe, one of their folks actually had 2 toons deleted as well and are not able to restore them currently. What on earth is going on here to not even get any kind of response?
I was in this guild and have had this trouble too. Some of us have joined a new guild because of how frustrating not having guild chat etc is. I have submitted multiple bug reports as have other guild members. Both before and after i joined the mew guild, for some reason i could still see some messages coming through from the old guild chat, but i did not have permission to reply to these. All of us that have reached out to suppprt have not been able to talk to an actual human being and not just AI. Please can we have a person look into this and respond to us.
