I would <I>definitely</I> put her on <I>my</I> list. Top 4! *kekeke*<BR/><BR/>Escada - We've had recruits with no connections in the guild who have proved really really amazing. Our first one was while I was still leveling to 70 and he's a guild fixture now. The key to recruiting to a family guild is just expanding your friends in the game and finding people you'd be willing to toss a ginvite if they're ever left at dead ends. You don't really want hardcore raiders, but you do want people who are curious about endgame, happy playing casual for now, and willing to go the long, slow haul of collecting new members until you have a solid group you can trust (a lot of casual guilds who raid become jumping-off points for people who want to break into "real" raid guilds, so trust and loyalty is key).Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07275637177494490776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-98202484097177760.post-88591093423660348052008-12-02T11:08:00.000-05:002008-12-02T11:08:00.000-05:00Nev read the goodbye post and (being in a foul moo...Nev read the goodbye post and (being in a foul mood at the time) thought "Well, he listed everyone he would miss and I wasn't there, so g'bye!" I convinced her that he was listing people he'd played with, not everyone he'd liked... you know, the folks who were on a lot. Then we found out that Z was also omitted from the list. <_<Jon Blevinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02844700314444300514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-98202484097177760.post-7668010656438883142008-12-02T00:58:00.000-05:002008-12-02T00:58:00.000-05:00Yea, Christian is amazing.

But a guildie and I were recently talking about how it would be so nice to expand and have more people and maybe even do raids someday..but the vulnerability of inviting people we don't know would be really scary. Anyway we decided not to worry about recruiting more for a while, at least not random people we don't know except through the game itself. After reading your post I want our guild to stay family style. ;)Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13218979755811382055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-98202484097177760.post-32044357415719461872008-12-01T13:42:00.000-05:002008-12-01T13:42:00.000-05:00*nod* They were asked to do it quick if they were ...*nod* They were asked to do it quick if they were going to do it. There's no hard feelings there on my part. I think we'll get an explanatory post from the officers to let everyone know the last two didn't just up and go, we let them know it was cool first.<BR/><BR/>Their goodbye posts really kept me from being completely miserable -- they were just too sweet.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07275637177494490776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-98202484097177760.post-18054752573647147282008-11-30T23:35:00.000-05:002008-11-30T23:35:00.000-05:00Aaaaaand...
