Looking for a Home

I’ve been trying to get back into WoW. I’ve gone through the “What class do I want to play? What role do I want to fill? What size guild am I looking to join?” I’ve come to realize that it’s not the characters I miss, or the content, it’s the people I miss.

Who am I?
I’m a 51 year old gamer dad. I have a friend who got into the original beta and let me play around with it, I was hooked. I played regularly from vanilla release up to Legion. Most of the friends I played with began to move on after Legion. I bought BoA and Shadowlands at different points in there life cycle and tried to get involved with no real success.

For Dragonflight I wanted to give more of an effort to get back into WoW. I’ve pre-ordered the expansion and I’m trying to use this time before launch to get familiar with the game again.

I raided regularly up through Cata, off and on in MoP, and a couple of bosses in BoA. I was an off tank DK and Pally, healer Pally, Priest, Druid, dps Shaman, Mage, Hunter. Other than Elemental Shaman during Cata I’ve never really had a favorite class or role. I’ve usually played a class to fill a need. It’s always been more about the people I’m with rather than class I play that makes WoW fun for me.

What am I looking for?
I’m looking for humor, community and love for the game. I always try to do my best, I’m not a hardcore player. I guess I’m dedicated casual. I’ll put in the work but my main goal is having fun.

Maybe there’s a group out there where I fit in, or maybe I’m wasting my time trying to get back something that is gone for good. Here’s hoping!

Hello Krotchety! We would love to have you if our family looks like a good fit for you! From Ashes is an alliance guild my husband and I lead on the Whisperwind/ Dentarg servers. We are a social/ casual guild with a low stress raiding environment. Most of our members are older members (most are between mid 30s - 50s) with children and full time jobs. Our goal is to have a guild that feels like a family, where our members actually care about one another and want to hang out. We are firm believers that real life comes first and that this is supposed to be something we enjoy, not a job. We raid Normal and Heroic only, on Wed/ Sun from 8p-10p cst (raiding is not required to be in the guild though!), have lots of off night events scheduled (in game and out), and a pretty active discord. We try to do as much as we can together as possible whether that be fun runs/ mythic dungeons/ raids/ achievements/ etc. Here is our guild spam if you want to check it out: (A) From Ashes (Whisperwind/Dentarg) Recruiting

If we sound like a good fit and you would like to chat please contact me in game or add my btag: Chelusa#1974. Good luck in your guild search.

PREPARING FOR DRAGONFLIGHT:

We are a cross faction guild. Alliance (Keepers of the Flame) and Horde (Fire in hearth snow roof) are both on the THUNDERLORD server. We are wanting to build two strong guilds going into the expansion. Dedicated members are needed in all classes. Currently we are doing Mythic Keys every week. We are looking for older adults who are not with the drama and just want to play and have fun. We are looking to start a raid team and set up a weekly raid night. We do not mind helping out with quests , mount runs are anything you need all you have to do is ask. We are not pushy about content and we do not mind helping you learn the aspects of the game no matter how long it takes. Both guilds can be found in the guild finder application or you can hit me up at Kimtazz#1459. We look forward to hearing from you!

Hi there! We are restructuring our raid team/ taking a break to recruit, so a great time to join. Here’s my generic guild spam. Feel free to add me in game if you want to run some keys or something to try us out!

Created in 2008, Fätal Errör- Bleeding Hollow is a family-oriented guild. We are currently looking for like minded raiders who are looking to progress, but care more about having fun and enjoying friends. We are currently taking a break from raiding to restructure due to a lot of our members experience RL and burnout. We raid on Tuesdays and Wednesdays 8pm-11pm EST and have an alt raid on Fridays. We are currently 11/11N and 8/11H. While we are promoting a friendly and fun atmosphere, we expect raiders to show up to raid prepared and ready to progress. When not raiding, people are consistently running mythic+, pvping, and hanging out in discord. Not everybody raids, so if M+ is your jam we have plenty of that as well! We are a very social and active guild. All are welcome!

Feel free to whisper Jumpernickel or Gehena in game or btag Kayla#1755 or Chastely#1336 and we can shoot you an invite to our discord as well.
I look forward to hearing from you!

Heyo,

Trinity is a group of players who have enjoyed content from Vanilla/Classic days to Shadowlands & looking at building a team(s) for DragonFlight. We are currently just focusing on Mythic+ and getting ready for Season 4 Mythic+

We are looking for any new & returning players that enjoy having a place to hang out, play the game, gear up & even play other games on our off nights.

We are pretty laid back, we are learning new alts and trying new things to keep it different.

If you want to talk more, I added my Battlenet below.

Or join us on Discord @ Discord.gg/f8zJDgVC

You might find you like Descendants of Lore. Most of us are vanilla players and dare I say over the hill. I will leave our spam below and if you wish to talk more please feel free to add me to battlenet or discord:

Has your guild recently disbanded or quit raiding? Are you just coming back from a break? Come check us out, we have consistently raided for 16 years and have a tight-knit group of long term players who play to have fun and to successfully progress through raids at our own pace.

Are you introverted, extroverted, or a bit quirky? Are you a grandpa, a first time parent, or have 500 cats? Do you tell lots of dad jokes? You may find your home here.

If you have weekends free and want to have fun with others from the comfort of your computer chair, come join us. Here is our spam:

OUR SPAM:

[A] Descendants of Lore is a semi-casual Alliance raiding guild on Khadgar/Alleria/Exodar/Medivh that has been around and consistently raiding since Vanilla (16 + Years). We are a small to medium sized, close-knit guild of friendly, mature players, with the majority being over the age of 30 with, jobs, families, and adult responsibilities. We are careful with recruiting so no one gets lost in the crowd and everyone has a raid spot.

RAIDING:

We offer a laid back environment with dedicated players willing to put in the work to succeed but not at the expense of fun or sanity. We are currently:

SOTFO:
11/11 N
7/11H

We make a push for Heroic each expansion and sometimes dip a toe into a Mythic boss or two when we have the roster.

We raid Sundays from 4pm-8pm CST. (2-6 pm Pacific) and every other Saturday with plenty of opportunities for Mythic + throughout the week.

CASUAL/SOCIAL PLAYERS:

Are you a casual player tired of bouncing from one disbanded guild to the next? We have room for you. We have been hanging out and active on the Khadgar server (now includes Alleria/Exodar/Medivh) since Vanilla. While we are primarily a raiding guild we do have social players who do not raid. As social introverts we appreciate the chit chat and social elements you bring to our lives outside of raiding. We also frequently have people running achievements, transmogs, and M+ throughout the week.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR:

We are looking for mature, friendly, active, and dedicated players to join us for Shadowlands and beyond.

If you wish to raid, we expect you to come prepared (food, flasks, enchants, gems, know your class and rotation) and on time, come with a good attitude and know how to wipe with dignity and work towards progress.

We will accept anyone who would be a good fit for our guild, and can currently accommodate almost any class, but are especially looking for a Tank, a Healer and a DPS hybrid class that can also occasionally fill in for Heals**.

We are looking for a Tank who loves to tank and will not become bored of tanking, a committed experienced Heals and a DPS with healing offspec capabilities for occasions when a healer needs the night off.

If you have made it past the novella, please consider us if you are looking for a fun and friendly environment with an established, long term guild that doesn’t tolerate drama. Or if you are looking for a raid experience filled with silliness and dad jokes.

CONTACT:

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or wish to consider Descendants of Lore as your new home.

Hey man, we might be a good fit. Check out the below and let me know if you would like to chat more.

The Unmentionables of Hyjal (Horde) is looking for excellent players. We took a break off this tier from Mythic, but are looking to get back into the swing of things for 10.0. S4 is going to be weird, but should be fun. We are specifically recruiting for our Mythic Raid Team, with a primary goal of Ahead of the Curve every tier and pushing as far as we can as a group in Mythic. Leadership team has multiple CE achievements and like to foster a fun, rewarding environment while trying to improve and push further each tier. We are open to cross faction raiders.

Current Progression: 11/11H 1/11M


Raid Days/Times:

Tuesday/Thursday 6:30pm - 9:00pm PST


Currently Recruiting: All exceptional dps with good attitudes and personality. Sorry no healing or tanking spots at this time.


About Us:

Our goals are simple: We want to push into mythic raiding as deep as we can each tier while raiding with people we like and trust.Outside of raids, we enjoy running M+ dungeons, hunting for achievements, pets and mounts. We also play other games together such as Heroes, Path of Exile, and the occasional DnD campaign.


What we offer:

  • An inclusive community where you can grow as a player.

  • A raid team where spots are given based on merit, not favoritism.

  • A transparent leadership team that encourages members to be involved.

  • A guild where you will get back as much as you put into it.

What we want:

  • Adults (18+) that can take being roasted if they make a mistake, or help dish it out when needed.

  • Players with a strong raiding background that are looking for a guild home - not just a place to play the latest raid tier.

  • Players that are social and enjoy interacting with others outside of raid times.

  • Players that want to continue to improve and push themselves to play content at the highest level even as their time to play is perhaps less than it once was due to family life, work, etc.


If you have any questions or are interested in more information, please contact us:

Discord: Cercie#2308 or r3con#4078

Hello, Just wanted to Put my Guild out there- we May be a great fit for you!

** KaPwn TLDR**

  • Kapwn is a new Horde guild on the Thrall Server

  • Looking for Great People with Integrity able to try hard 2 nights a week and hang out the rest of the week.

  • Raid nights Tuesday & Wednesday 8:30-11:30

  • We are a brand new guild so we need all roles for the raid team and officer

  • Once we hit 10 people for a raid team we will start doing the ShadowLands raids. (Yes we are that new)

  • Contact me in-game: Nevaduck#1983 or on Discord: FollyFox#7961

Goals

Our goal is to create a community without ASSHATS that seems to be everywhere in World of Warcraft. The ability to name change and/or hop servers takes all accountability out of people’s actions.

As a new guild,

We are looking to fill all roles for raids and officers. Our goal is to recruit and try to get to 25-30 raiders so we can clear Heroic each tier- and at that point we will either move to mythic raids or do achievements. We are planning on raiding once we get enough of a team to run 10 mans (using this as a great recruiting tool).

Hit me up if you have any questions!

Hi Krotchety, we are Tom Sellecks Mustache an Adult Normal/Heroic raiding guild on Thrall (Est). It looks like you are currently on a Central Time Zone server so our raid times might work well for you . TSM is an Adult guild with lots of married couples and working adults, the average age of our members ranges between 35-60, with quite a few of us in the same age range as you. lol
Take a look at our guild information and if you are interested hit me up.
Good luck in your search.

Tom Sellecks Mustache a Normal/Heroic Raiding Guild on Thrall (Since 2015) is looking for a more to join us for the end of Shadowlands and beyond.

At Tom Sellecks Mustache we value the player above all, so we recruit the person behind the mask not the toon. We look for people that want to be part of a family, people that enjoy logging on to be part of a community, and people that remember that this is “a Game”, and it’s supposed to be fun.

TSM is made up of mature adults and we have no time for drama or elitist players, we play the game for what it is “A Game”. We laugh and carry on in Discord while we raid, but we try not to take ourselves too seriously, so we just run back and try again when we die. With a little effort and some encouragement, we get the job done and are able to sit back and laugh about our mistakes but celebrate and enjoy our success.

WHAT OUR RAIDERS SAY ABOUT US:

As a mustachioed person in this guild, I would like to add the following. Mature means that we cut up and have a good time, all the while being respectful, not hurtful. We taunt, cajole, exhort, and tease each other, but never losing an undertone of kindness and a regard for our fellow mustachers.
PS. If you are on the heal team, none of this may apply. :wink:

Currently Seeking:

Tanks:
Fulltime position available!
DPS/Tank Off-spec to fill in and run Mythic +

Heals

Heals/DPS off spec to fill in as needed

DPS:
Would love to have a Warrior (we have none)
Any

Raid Schedule:

Tues./Thur. 7:00pm - 9pm EST

TSM is a Normal/Heroic raiding guild, Mythic raiding isn’t our goal.

What we are looking for from You:
We are an Adult guild, most of us have careers/families etc., and understand that sometimes Real Life happens. That being said our time is valuable and we are looking for players that can consistently make it to the raids. We aren’t looking to be server firsts, but we don’t want to be last either.

If you are looking for a positive raiding experience without all the Min-Max Elitist, then we may be the right guild for you. Come talk to us you will not be disappointed.

Contact: Battlenet - Zuul#1119 for more information.

Hi. I think you might be a good fit for our AOTC guild, Moonwell Dancers.

Founded in February 2005, Moonwell Dancers is a casual, friendly Alliance guild on the Uldum server.

We play World of Warcraft for fun, and the guild has grown based on the idea that players can reach their shared goals in a friendly atmosphere far more effectively than in the cutthroat environment typical of so-called “raiding” guilds. We raid. We just have fun doing it. We raid Fri/Sat 5-730pm PST. We also run m+ throughout the week.

We also have achievement seekers. And battleground and arena gurus. We’re knowledgeable and helpful. And we have plenty of casual players who just like to explore what Azeroth has to offer.

If you’re still interested, my btag is Epsilonp#1422.

Hello! You sound like a great fit for us. Here is my guild spam.

New guild! Getting ready for Dragonflight! Looking for adults with a good sense of humor & attitude. That want to have fun in a chill environment.
Dungeons, Raiding & PVP is the goal.

I have no plans to get into mythic raiding.

I would like to keep it a small close-knit guild of people that can get to know each other and form a nice community. I want this to be a fun relaxed environment where we can make friends while we kill pixels together. I do not want to pug. So I need you, so please save me from that lol.

I miss 10 mans. So my hope is for a 10-12 person team. 15 would be the max.

I am looking for someone to be co-gm to help with things. Get in from the ground up.

I am also open to either side. I already have a guild made on Thrall horde side.
I have a guild charter on the alliance side Sargeras. So really it will be up to the guild where we go.

You can add me on discord if you are interested. Shade#3984
Or leave your info here and I can contact you. Whichever works :slight_smile:

think you could be a good fit for our guild i have put guild info and contact information below

Hey there Krotchety!

My new, 2 month old (& some change) guild, The Legal Bananas, on Alliance Stormrage might be the type of atmosphere you’re looking for! We are a tight knit group of individuals who met on various places such as Gamer Pals subreddit, WoW FB groups, knowing each other IRL & meeting on the wow forums!

I would consider myself a veteran player, since I’ve been playing since OG BC, but my cogm has a different outlook, as he’s only been playing for a year & came from FFXIV. Together, we run the guild & don’t let there be ANY bullying or nonsense such as political or religious convos in voice chats.

I try to keep the guild as active as possible, meaning I do a guild roster purge every month & remove everyone who hasn’t logged in in over 15 days (if you need to take a break & don’t want to leave, tell me, & I’ll make you DO NOT KICK!) I do this bc I want the guild to be active, not an alt parking lot for people who play elsewhere.

We just started raiding last weekend on Normal Seplucher. Everyone did amazing & I actually got choked up when we finally killed the 2nd boss after struggling on it for 12 attempts. I was so proud of everyone! I never really raided & to see everyone come together & use teamwork, it really amazed me & I don’t know if I can fully describe my feelings about it!

In TLB, we are in discord voice chat even when events aren’t going on. The guildies who use voice chat are very close & know private & personal things about each other! I love getting into vc at night after a long day & shooting the sh!t with my new friends :slight_smile:

If you’re wondering what we need for the raid we really need a dps shaman & maybe another dps dk. But def play whatever is the most fun for you!

Anyway, here is my guild recruitment spam if you wanna read it!

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to DM me via discord anytime: FluffyPanda#6738

I cannot wait to hear from you! I hope you have a great rest of your day!

:heart: / Jem

Hey there,

We may be a good fit since we have many players who have played this game a long time and we are a more mature crowd of raiders. Here is our ad below and contact info if you want to talk some more!

Enshadowe-US Thrall is recruiting for Season 4 and Dragonflight. If you are a social player who likes to work with a team to get those bosses down(while having fun), then we are looking for you!

OUR INFO:

Enshadowed - US THRALL [H]

Raid Days/Times: Tuesday and Thursday: 8:00pm - 11:00pm (EST)

Current Raid Progression: for 9.2: 11/11H AOTC

Contact Info: Bnet - Ree#1799, DISCORD: Kayliee#7155

ABOUT US

Enshadowed-US-Thrall is a semi-casual raiding guild, formed in 2008 on US-Wildhammer (moved to US Stormreaver back in Mop) We are made up of players with a variety of experience in WoW, from vanilla to new players and most of us have been playing together for a long time over a decade.

While getting “Cutting Edge” is not our main goal, we would like to attain the numbers in our roster again to do mythic bosses and work toward it at some point but mostly focused on rebuilding a strong raid team for the upcoming expansion.

OUR CURRENT NEEDS:

RAIDING
• Reliable DPS ho know their class and can perform
• Healers - Full on monks and priests.

MYTHIC PLUS

DPS, Tanks & healers who want to push keys. This is a bonus. We would like to get back to having more than enough people who want to do mythic plus have the opportunity to do so with very little bugging. Being dual specced and having the ability to tank or heal is a HUGE plus.

COMMUNITY

There are no specific requirements for players who do not wish to raid. If you wish to pvp, do achievements, gather mats to your hearts content you can have a home here.

Are you an “altoholic” (we have tons of those), no problem.~ All we ask as that you be inclusive, nice, and mature. Returning players, Mythic Plus Busters and anyone looking for a home is also welcome to join and be part of our community. Enshadowed has been a guild on this game for a long time. We are stable even in the dry spells and our guildies always have a home here when they take a break and come back to the game. We would love to have more friends to add to our family!

Want to know more! Just ask us!

Just in case you’re still looking – we could potentially be a fit for you if our raid times line up with your availability (assuming you want to get back into raiding). 51-year-old gamer dad fits with the profile of many of our members :slight_smile:

More info about us below!

tl;dr

Normal & Heroic raiding (no current Mythic)
Wed/Thurs 7-10pm server (PST)
Horde on Hyjal
Seeking DPS

Formed in 2012, Elysium is a small, tight-knit guild consisting mostly of people who have gotten too old/busy/tired of drama for hardcore raiding but still like to get together a couple times a week to nerd out and kill bosses. We’re AOTC-only and have raided consistently through the highs and lows of the last six expansions (with every AOTC along the way). Our raid times are Wed/Thurs 7-10pm server (PST). We also prioritize getting the raid metas every tier for those sweet, sweet Glory mounts.

Outside of raid, we’ve got top pet collectors, mount hunters, altoholics, fashionistas and achievement aficionados. We enjoy Mythic+ and occasionally pretend we can PVP. Some of us even really enjoy Torghast. We all have lives outside the game (kids, jobs, etc) but also greatly value our in-game family. We’re a small guild that won’t have a ton of people on all the time but the people that are on, you’ll know well.

We’re looking for a few more people (specifically DPS right now) to join our family. We are not hardcore optimizers, but do expect everyone to do what they can to help the guild succeed, be open to feedback, and try your best to improve. We have a good time, but also do our best to maintain an inclusive and respectful environment for players of all backgrounds and identities.

If that sounds like what you’re looking for, add me and let’s chat!

Liliova#1249 (battlenet)
