Is your guild "cliquey"?

If you are getting ignored in Guild Chat, then you are in the wrong guild.

The problem is you dont know what you are looking for. If you want the casual experience you have to play with the casuals of your guild and just have fun. People come around all the time expecting things. Dont. Just play the game and focus on the casuals. The mythic people have millions of other things to do that isnt fun so I am not surprised they dont have time for casuals. But you know who does have time? Other casuals. Make friends with them and carve your own path

this is guilds in 2020.

outside raiding you get nothing social… nothing honest, not even a “checking how are you”.

and yes the same 3-4 people doing constant m+ while you’re struggling to get a group yourself on alts.

Closest I ever got to guild raiding was this:

Me: “what’s the minimum ilvl for tonight’s raid?”
Someone: “430”
Me: “Excellent I’m 435, qualified and available.”
Officer: “Who said you’re qualified?”

Then I got interviewed and was told there was a waiting list to the waiting list. I think that guild started offering off-nights for more people to get in on it, but I didn’t stick around long enough to find out. I hang out with my girl or quest with my brother in the evening, I ain’t got time to raid. We’ll see what it is when I hit 60 in Classic I suppose.

Every light casts its shadow. The searing, burning light. Shine it in your eyes enough, and you can only see hallucinations. The shadows offer comfort. Quiet. Peace. Rest. The shadows always have a place for you know matter your imperfections. Cthulhu will save us all from the light’s cruelty.

As a quiet person, I feel you.

sounds like your guild has their own push groups in the guild. My guild is the same on most part. I run w/ other people on keys personally.

Also as you’ve said you’re a casual on the guild. Where most of them know each other thru mythic raiding. You’re probably on once or twice a week while the rest are online most times. Probably willing to bet you’re one of those who just lurks in discord not saying a lot at all. If you really want to be involve maybe make an effort to know the people in your guild rather than posting in the forums

I feel this way now despite raiding (2 nights a week at least, often more depending on expansion/patch) for 8 years or so straight.

I have about the same amount of free time. But after having walked away from it after CoS this expansion, I find it hard to look at raiding in that way anymore. It feels like it would eat up way too much of my time.

Because it does.

But idk, feels weird knowing that obviously I CAN make time for it, but that I have no desire to after so long.

Kinda feel bad because I know there are people who would love to raid with us again, but I’m not feeling it now that I’m out.

I can’t rely on my guild for anything. I mostly try to build a network of btag friends.

The guild my Nightborne Dk and warlock are in is very cliquey. Even though I’m a member of said guild I still have to “apply” to run just Heroic Raids and Mythic +10 and up. I guess you can say a “trial period” of some sort. Now I know some people might think why are you in such a guild? Well for one it has a busy guild chat and discord. I enjoy the conversations and so on.
The last guild I was in stopped playing altogether until release of Shadowlands.
