Default You know you’re in a good Guild when:

You only see the word “noob” when someone is good-naturedly joking a fellow Guildie.

If you need 5k for your Grotto armor, someone GIVES it to you.

THK kicking your butt? Seven Guildies stop what they’re doing to help.

Tired of being lvl 6? You receive several offers to power-level your character.

Need to cap that one last skill? More people than you need offer to help.

75% or better of the players are on every night.

There are NO cliques, everyone is equally accepted into any outing.


How do you know if you’re in a bad Guild?

Anyone?

heres one (more of a bad member than bad guild)

when you have members that do nothing but ask for gold/items/runs and never actually chat.

clicks = cliques

A clique is an exclusive sub group. Say the top 6 people group all the time and nobody else is welcome, that'd be a clique.

Sounds like you have found yourself an incredibly excellent guild.

Bad guilds hmmm...

Probably if they are all a bunch of elitist assholes and laugh at your builds.

I have two guilds like that, LoL. Only thing is one guild only has about 5 members since it's in a process of rebuilding. I had a mate give me 15k on two occaisions. Once I started to make good money from SF farming I ended up giving her a ton of greens in an attempt to show thanks.

heh im in a great guild now, pretty much would do everything you put there.

my previous guild (a big guild, and i have to say, a lot of great friends in there from a different game, along with many people from this game who i never knew), but total rubbish to be in. They never spoke on guild chat. Never saw them in game, other than as names. They had two guilds because we were so big, so i never knew half the members. And then, to cap it all off, one of the many reasons I left "Well we don't want our guild to suck in rankings so if you're good at PvP join our 3rd guild, if not stay where you are".

Pfft elitist. Never looked back after joining my new guild. But I do still talk to a few of them that I knew before I joined. They're good guys. But the size just makes it... bleh.

You're always gonna have one or two in every Guild, but in a good Guild, you will also have good officers and other members letting the jerks know what the limits are. Looking back, I laughed at a few of my own builds, and others did to, but along with the laughter, there was always constructive criticism.

I had a really good guild just like that in another game, but we didn't survive the switch to GW.

Never heard of the movie, but if it was the name of the club, I'm sure it was the best gay club ever!
