| Stuff to think about Guilds |
|

I'm probably no the only one here with these types of questions and/or comments about Guild Wars, I'll just start ranting ahead and you all can tell me I'm wrong or not..
A thing I have noticed is the complete lack of usefullnes in being in a Guild(PvE). Not all cases apply but I look at it this way:
When I'm doing a mission, or a quest, I usually group with whoever is available..sometimes this works, sometimes it doesnt, you all know about the dumb****s who logout in the thick of things, which sucks a lot by the way. but this is not the point.
The point I'm trying to make is that rarely do I see 2 or even 3 people in the same mission group, who are part of the same guild. Is this normal? I appreciate that anyone can join any mission but isn't the point of having a guild is to actually play with your guild-mates??
I think this stems from the fact that a lot of people create guilds just for the cape and supposed recognition..I have 4 guild invitations right now, I know NOONE from these guilds and i have NO idea why they invited me.
This is sad cause it hampers the whole "Guild Wars" idea.
Is there a way to address this?
Me personally, I have created a Guild but I will NOT add anywone whom I do not know personally or that I have not quested with enough times to consider them reliable..

well i dont normally ask for help out of my guild i more or less give help to new characters.
most guilds arent usefull unless they are serious and like to PvE.

Exactly,that's what I mean. It serves no purpose unless the people use them right.

I'm not into the entire "guilds" ordeal. I rarely team with anyone in teh game to complete a mission, if I do it's someone I've known for years. I'm sure for those who play in a group all the time they would enjoy it a lot more if they got to know the people and played with them everytime (in a guild). So, I agree with you. You are right, it puts a damper on the games play tactic, lol. I am not sure what advice I could offer you to fix this problem. I am doubtful that it will ever be resolved.

If we look at it this way, basically it's not a gameplay problem. I just think that people should "earn" the right to create a guild, not just save up money for it.
By "earning" it, people will be more serious and responsible with the Guild dynamic..
I mean, it's just a game but still, these are things that could be considered by developers.

I agree that with people being in guilds they should group together.. thats why my guild we always PvE together lol we even have a set of toons we only play together and go threw the missions killing every single monster lol just ask Swampy..
the best thing about a guild IMO is the sharing.. my guilds motto per say is NBG which stands for need before greed..

I think you need to find a better guild. The guild I'm in usually have 5 people onine at same time as me and we usually use Ventrilo for team speaking. Another friend of our guild is thinking of leaving her guild since they aren't online at the same time.
Using ventrilo with a good number of people is a great way to coordinate plan of attacks, set traps/ambushes, and help guild mates with missions and vice versa. If I need a good group for Fissure or Underworld, then my Guild mates are there. They also tend to share weapons and its not a newbie beating stick but something like a storm bow of fortitude or a energy +12 staff or something like that.
