TBH every time I joined a guild, I contributed less before I just quit. The last time, when they are like you use the guild repair don’t you, I erred on the side of giving them more (because I had used it once and didn’t remember how much it was) put back what I had taken, and then just quit.

It’s because I’m not a social butterfly that I can’t defend that as anything less than horribly selfish, and sound rude doing it.

I think we should be selfish in the game. But that is not generally considered defensible.

They will use their social butterflyism, make me seem rude for not contributing, and then I will kind of have to. What am I supposed to say if they are like oh, so you just want us to serve you, you don’t really care about the guild then?

what does this even mean?

I only seen Lame guild name…

name that more joke and feel bad even join one.

When is the last time a guild help you gear?

this isnt 2004. socializing through mmos is the worst possible way you can try to engage in socializing if that is your main goal.

yea you just got swindled. Maybe the GM that was angry you were using repaired was genuine but to be honest, it’s their fault for not creating a raidcore rank instead to limit that if they truly cared about it.

The biggest service you can do to a guild is just showing up while simultaneously bringing your own consumes. No respectable guild is going to get on your case for not donating to the gbank, it’s not supposed to work like a shady HOA.

If I were you if you manage to see a casual normal/heroic raiding guild recruiting I’d see if you could join up so you could see how the system is supposed to actually function if you’d be up for it, I completely understand if you’re put off from guilds after that though lol.

Actually, I disagree. It depends heavily on the environment of the MMO, location in game, and server. For example, socialization is really good when it is more natural in a MMO, where you have a common interest. Such as working on the same skill in OSRS or being on a RP server in WoW. Can have some really good moments and meet great new people under the right circumstances.

Guilds I do not think are one of them though.

I would be happy to do that. But if they start asking for donations, and if they are charismatic enough in asking that I look rude for not doing it, I will give one, and immediately quit.

I will also not give up any battle pets that are TCGs or that I only have one of.

In my experience guilds are usually the problem, not the answer.

The main clique gets their key people geared, screw anyone else who gets unlucky and then you end up benched. The only guilds nice enough to not be like that or be total meta slaves typically don’t ever actually do anything.

And that’s ignoring all the Husband/wife guild leader combos out there and the e-girl raid leader that has her favorites, etc etc. Seen it all.

Lots of good replies and insight on this thread.

I’ve been playing WoW almost 5 years and just this toon has probably seen 7 guilds, only 2 have been really good to be apart of (this one included).

Unfortunately oftentimes you run into a fairly common issue, your going to have your AoTC/early mythic raiders/KSH and your going to have the normal raiders/KSMish. Eventually there is going to come a time when the latter group has growing discontent with the former group (due to feeling like they are carrying players in Heroic+ content) and the guild blows up with the more experienced players leaving. Not many guild survive when this happens as there just isn’t enough skill to really push anymore.

As lots of people have been saying, the truly nice/relaxed guilds have trouble clearing Normal raids, and keeping raiders. Eventually they all blow up.

Funny enough that was happening to me before twitch or any of that cam stuff was even a thing. People been usin booty for raid groups for much much longer lol.

That kind of behavior would not fly in my guild, I’d demote and give raid lead to someone better suited if they’re gonna play favorites.

Man I wish lol. Been looking into tanking for the first time since Legion and I loathe this M+ rotation with PUGs, but every guild I find is either too sweaty or just social.

Don’t have the time to join a guild and PvE is to boring any way’s. Yes, lets kill the same mob over and over for months on end minus a few affixes to it… That’s so lame. I won’t PvE till they make it so the mob’s have a AI mind of something and you can’t have a addon scream at you what to do…

Good for you, you either join one that goes slow and gets nowhere, or goes fast and you’re being left out if you don’t spend hundreds of thousands of gold on gear to keep up with them or get lucky with drop. Unless you’re “family” ofc, because then you get priority and being excused for performing poorly. That’s why I wish delves was a much better content with much much better rewards. Capping rewards at t8 is just dumb. I detest group content, it’s overtuned af.

Guilds just aren’t that fun anymore, people only wanna do mythic plus or raid and it’s either play by their schedule and rules or find some other guild that cares what you want to do. I’m sorry but I’ll stay a lone wolf, I like doing things at my own pace and not being forced to do things at threat of being thrown out of the group. I don’t use discord, I don’t use mods, I don’t PvP or have time to actually raid…they’re not the right place for me. I mean the guild I’m part of in GW2 is leagues friendlier than any guild I’d find in WoW and most the time they don’t say anything in chat unless someone asks a question or needs help. I try to ask questions or request help in a WoW guild and I get laughed at, trolled, told to get good, flat out refused, or kicked…yeah no thanks. I also don’t spend months on end playing the game or just one character and most WoW guilds throw you out on your butt if you’re not active enough for their liking… so yeah no…sorry I’m not joining any guilds.

LOL I’ve seen plenty of just as toxic people in guilds. It only really provides a specific group of toxics every week.
