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 is a newly formed Casual/Social guild that will be created when Classic launches. The guild will be catered to the older, mature crowd & working adults with real life commitments. It will be small, but meaningful as I believe great friendships and cooperation will be formed over time. This will not be a raiding guild, however I am not opposed to collaborating with another small guild to attempt raids as I’ve done throughout my 14 years playing WoW.
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; I often pug raids when I feel like raiding. 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.
Server type/Faction - RP/PVE - Alliance on Bloodsail Buccaneers. 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.
Time zone - NA/Eastern ( I hope to have players online all day and night).
About me - Retired military, married, 46 years old and Old school WoW player and former GM of 2 guilds in Vanilla that we’re both Casual. I’m very proud to say that my old guild did clear Naxx as a Casual guild, but not the 40 man version. 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 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 am forming 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. Looking to have a max of 30 - 35 people give or take. Once a guild gets too large, you lose those personal relationships that are important.
I’m sure I have forgot to mention something so if you are interested or have any questions, please feel free to ask. It’s been awhile since I’ve done this. 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. Also, if there is another like-minded guild that is looking for a small guild to collaborate with, feel free to reach out to me as well. I look forward to playing with you on launch day and if you have any questions, please feel free to to ask!
Edit: I can be contacted at Tarron#2812 on Discord. It won’t let me attach the link. Please feel free to contact me at your convenience.
** Server update: We will start our journey on the Bloodsail Buccaneers server.
Also, I have made the decision that the faction will be Alliance. Hopefully those that are considering horde will give us a try!
