First off apologies if this is in the wrong thread...The below recruitment forums did not have a WOW section...Perhaps ur not even recruiting....but hey dont ask dont get ^^...

Im looking to join a nice friendly Guild...I will be re-rolling Horde on your server if I am accepted...

I have played mostly alliance chars on other servers with a lvl 59 priest being my highest...

You may question me - alliance...and why am i looking to join...But simple answer....I have played this game long enough to know that a nice guild that interacts well, are friendly, helpful and look out for each other with Q's, Mats etc...Is damn hard to find....not to mention many guilds dont speak english or dont chat in game...

So yes I May start as level 1 in your guild....

But you are looking at a mature, active and extremly helpful wow player that is not looking to mess around as your guild appeals to me so once im in, and im enjoying it....U wont get rid of me lol....Yet I am 21 and love to have a laugh...

So if you are interested in a good team player from the UK then please reply or speak to me on msn zyosgaming@hotmail.com or xfire zyos2006. Just let me know what Positions you need filling in the guild and my char will be re-rolled that char, however I am best as a healer as that is what I am most experienced with...

Thanks All
Jay

Correct, we aren't recruiting I'm afraid. This section, as the top post in the forum says, is for our ex-FA.WoW members to throw abuse at each other.

so

WoW Refugee's WoW discussion area for old FA members and non FA members about WoW

tbh was only forum that was closest to recruitment.

Okay, well guess i shall keep on searching then, thank you for speedy reply.

i think its more that we don't really have a wow guild at the moment there's a few ex members messing around together but not a guild as such

yeah, not many ppl around atm, might be a few back just before or on the release of Wotlk, but doubt we'd do anything before

Ctp you still haven't signed up for tomorrow's Sunwell raid, I know it's just a farm run and it's not challenging anymore but please be there as our other full tier 6 Druid tanks are on vacation. Cheerio!

Zyos, eventhough we are not recruiting at all atm, we might consider reforming FA after the expansion and just do casual 10man raids.

For sure we will not consider anyone below lvl 70. So for the sake of it, I'd start lvl'ing a char (pref a much needed one, like paladin or druid as you can go dps or healing or tanking) up to lvl 70 as no guild will accept players without a lvl 70 char.

So do that and perhaps in a few months you can pop in again and who knows ...

Well, I'm fairly sure our 10-man plan was only supposed to include existing/previous FA.WoW members for simplicity.

Looking at current interest, we'll be happy to get a 5-man instance run going every night. We can either hope that more people will return to the game and/or return to FA or we can acknowledge the fact that we're probably gonna have to recruit a few loyal people to be able to raid regularly.

Once again, it's all about our "current estimate", but as things are right now, it's not about simplicity, it's about the plan working at all :/

Well avie that is one BS of an idea. Wait for the expansion, see who plays and especially who plays what. And if you'Re going back to active raiding (even if it's only 10man) you will be in a position where you might need some more people.
But that's up to god for now ;)

EDIT: what gc said.... :)

That is the idea I put forward originally that everyone from FA.WoW agreed with in the first place. If we don't have enough ex-FA.WoW people to make it work, then I won't be being a part of it as I've had enough of the random trash that plays WoW now and seeing as for every like 8-10 people you recruit you get one decent, loyal person, I'm not waiting around to get enough for 10-man raiding when I don't have the time for it. Random people in FA have always been the root of our problems, cutting them out is only a good thing when we aren't planning on doing 25-man content.

I'm not interested in making FA.WoW a "public" guild again, the idea was to remake it with previous members so people knew how we worked already, knew what needed to be done and people didn't need spoon feeding just so they knew how to get to an instance. That's what I've said since I first mentioned the idea to people (and Kj subsequently posted it).

I totally understand your points and I find them valid, but coming back to what I referred to before, the expected turnout for the expansion is low. Current numbers say we won't be able to raid regularly at all, unless all the participants up their "raid per week" by at least one, maybe two raids, and even then, we're running with no backup at all.

WotLK is not here yet, but it's coming fast and it'll be here in a few months. We'll then be lvl 80 in a week for the fastest and a month for the slowest of us. And that's when we want to start running as many instances as possible with our guildies to gear up for raids, because we don't want to waste time with random groups that are "LFM last spot tank lol" for 2 hours and then get one that keyboard turns and loses aggro after Taunt wears off.

Bearing all the above in mind, I was just wondering about people's general feelings about going on with this project at all. Because roughly, our options are:

1) Cancelling the plan now and not reforming as FA due to lack of interest from old members;
2) Going on with the plan and not recruiting anybody new, expecting people to return to the game and/or FA;
3) Going on with the plan and recruiting a few people if we don't get enough FA guys together in order to raid.

An alternative to option 2 is reforming as a non-raiding social guild. That, however, will probably mean counting out the people who want to see the raid content of WotLK, which will mean gradual sinking and decaying for the guild in the long run.

If we choose option 3, we've got to do it decisively because as we've seen, being late in recruiting and organizing means being the underdog and getting recruits that better organized guilds have already rejected, with, as Avie said, about one decent player&person per 10 players.

You should go become lvl 80 and then see what happens.
Everything else is wasted time planning something that is not going to happen the way you think right now! Noone knows who's actually gonna return, show up, join, leave or disappear forever.... :)

You're right and I sort of know it, but I guess I don't want to admit it to myself. Because I don't want to see FA-WoW half linger between life and death again with people working hard to keep things okay, but in the end it's just pain for the people who worked hard. Guess it's easier to go for a "let's see what happens, make no promises" solution. Maybe I'm back in Zul'Gurub or Molten Core, having the most fun I've had in WoW with people who are cooler than 98% of the people I've met in online games despite being nowhere near "progressed" in the game. And I can't move on because I know it's not gonna be as fun.

But then again, maybe it is just me.

I know I won't have as much fun in WoW as I have done in the past with the people I enjoy playing alongside because I've already done it once and I ended up quitting the game. So now my options are play with the people I enjoy playing with if I can, or do my own thing and be selfish like 80% of WoW players.

01-09-2008, 23:34
Avie that's the point about wow. It makes people selfish and damages communities. WoW has done so much dmg to this community, you just can't imagine -_-

You lot are like a bunch of elitest fucking geekish faggots.

You could have been nicer, like maybe telling him to check back later I don't know, instead of highjacking his thread and acting all cool when you're not fucken cool just a bunch of FAT fucking sweaty fucking WoW nerds...

Honestly looks like hahaha we are in FA but you can't join, well fucking hell, your a buch of fucking PVERs anyway, stay at home carebear dads what ever..

Erm, I came up with the idea because you asked if I was certain that all instances could be done with 10 man.

Either way, it doesn't matter who's idea it is.

There will be no doubt that I will reform FA for 10 man raids purpose only. Hopefully with core. But I need 2-3 extra pple to balance out the guild, I will not hesitate recruiting them rather then calling it off immediatly.

Hopefully that will be with you, Avie. Otherwise it'll be up to the remaining FA'ers to pull this off, including myself.

Hence why I make a thread, Pulse. I expect those who replied to it, to join us. I'm counting on them and I'll be dissappointed to find out those were empty promises.

And I'll make a new post in a few weeks about class balance (who will play what char).

No, I for one will see that it happens and that it works. There is simply no other viable alternative for me. So yes, I believe you can plan ahead alot of things.

Sure, unforseen things might occur, but the more prepared you are, the faster you can react on this.

Atleast that's my experience

(and yes Avie, I made 3 posts in a row again, boohooo !!! :))

First of, if you read my reply you'll see that I told him to check again after WOTLK.

Secondly, don't bother posting here if your replies are gonna be like this. You got no clue what the history of this guild is and why pple like Avie and Grindcore and myself feel like this.

We shall see how it goes, I'll happily get the ball rolling, assuming I don't get bored of WotLK, if there are enough people. I also don't mind if FA.WoW stays as a social guild for those who don't have time to raid properly, because at least we can stay in contact ingame that way.

Erm, I came up with the idea because you asked if I was certain that all instances could be done with 10 man.

I asked Gro, Twist and Uriel long before you posted if they were interested, and I bet when I mentioned it in MSN to you it was before your post (I've got the logs, I could check). But anyway.

Well, I was unaware of the fact that you spoke to uriel or twist about it and if I spoke to you on MSN about it, it'd have been me asking you :)

So it might very well be that the idea spooked through your head already but I guess I felt the same way as you and decided to make a thread about it.

But I seem to remember that you asked me if all instances could be played with 10 players.

Either way, the idea is great and I'll do my best to make it work. Regardless of who's idea it really was :)

But, I will be seeing endgame content so I'll not go for the social guild option, and I doubt much of the FA core would. So let's all put in that little extra effort to make this work.

That's also another reason why I prefer ex-FA.WoW people, because I know that if we've got the numbers it won't require much organisational effort to work. Generally the people who have stuck around with FA are the people that don't make me wonder why I've bothered logging in to raid in the past.

Lol, I bet I make you wonder each single time you log in ;D

No, I see your point and I agree to it aswell. In the proposed setup, with FA core, we don't even need a structure of officers and such, nor alot of administration as we all know eachother and know what is expected from us.
