Recruiting for Safe Haven! An environment built around Casual gameplay, Social interaction, Family/Friend oriented atmosphere & the ability to play when you want; how you want. We are catered to the older, senior crowd but Old players and New players are welcome!
Safe Haven, a place of safety or refuge. “And thus it gives the impression of being a safe haven to which we may retreat from the unpredictability and limitlessness of experience.” That’s the mantra. To be able to log-in and have fun in a toxic-free, mature, adult environment and just play how you want to play, while making new friends along the way.
About the guild - Safe Haven was a formed on the launch of Classic WoW. We are a Casual/Socially focused guild. The guild is catered to the older, mature crowd & working adults with real life commitments.
Raiding Culture - We are a casual/socially focused guild who raids and not just a raiding guild that raids casually. Our identity is important, so if you want an environment that includes everyone, helps everyone grow together and works as a team to accomplish goals for the guild, and have fun doing it, then you have found the right place. After just 5 weeks of raiding we have downed 9 of 10 MC bosses and have slain Onyxia.
Whether we down a boss or wipe, we will pick ourselves back up and try it again without assigning blame in any particular area. We want our raids to be fun and stress free. We also encourage people who haven’t raided before to try raiding with us as we plan to be patient and help those who need help in different areas. Just like anything, repetition will make us better and the more attempts at bosses, the better we will get at downing them which in turn improves our chances at attempting multiple bosses in our allotted time frame per week. We will work together and stay true to what we are.
Why I created this guild - I was searching different recruitment forums for a guild that fit what I needed, and couldn’t find my exact niche, so I decided I would create my own in the vision of how I want to revisit my Vanilla experience. I know for a fact there are a huge amount of Vanilla veterans who want to experience the game just like me because I had an entire guild of you all back in the day and it was awesome . There is nothing like logging in and running dungeons and questing or doing PVP with a group of friends. We had sons, daughters , husbands & wives, senior citizens…it was great. Chat was lively and there was no drama. It made logging in every day a truly memorable experience.
What we will do - We’ll help others through quests, dungeons or crafting. We’ll provide a place where no question is a dumb question. A place that will act like a home away from home. If you want to be a part of this guild but still raid with other guilds or pug groups , then that’s fine as well. The bottom line is enjoy yourself. This guild will be what it is: Casual & Socially focused and everything we do after that will be a huge plus.
This is not an RP guild, however if you choose to participate in RP then enjoy! I like RP realms because the community I feel is a lot more welcoming.
We have players on at all hours so the timezone is insignificant!
About me - Retired military, married, 46 years old and an Old school WoW player and former GM of 2 guilds that were both Casual. I’m very proud to say that my old guild did clear 25 man Naxx as a Casual guild in WotLK. Unfortunately, I only got to clear it once because I had to deploy shortly thereafter.
I honestly didn’t desire to be a GM again but I saw a need for this type of guild and said why not. This is how I enjoy WoW, stress free and I’m sure there are others that share my sentiment.
Environment- No racism, bigotry, or hate filled rhetoric will be tolerated. Period. Respectful, clean guild chat.
Recruitment- Open to any class & any spec. I put more stock in the person behind the keyboard then the character/class you are playing. Some of my most memorable dungeon runs were with people whose specs weren’t considered optimal. Also, although I have formed this guild to cater to the graybeards and elder stateswomen of WoW, anyone who is interested, young or old will be considered if they fit the mold, and also their family members. No huge application process, just a conversation.
We are actively recruiting new members who want to be apart of a helpful, family style environment, but who also want to raid as well in a laid back relaxed format.
We don’t have a guild website, so we actively use Discord and Guild chat.
I’m sure I have forgot to mention something so if you are interested or have any questions, please feel free to ask. Please reach out to me if this is a guild you would be interested in not only joining but helping build into a great gaming home. I look forward to playing with you all and if you have any questions, please feel free to to ask!
I can be contacted In game on Tarron. You can also contact my Co-GM Dynel or one of my Officers, (Tsu, Edsel, Arturis, Moxie, Prill, Kazlak, & Teneight). Please feel free to contact one of us at your earliest convenience and let’s talk!
