Starting Your Own Guild!

So you've decided to create your own guild eh? Well alright, but it'll be a LOT of hard work. In the end, it's worth it though!

First thing you want to do is visit a Guild Master in any major city. From him you'll purchase a Guild Charter. Think of a name for your guild. This has always been the HARDEST part for me. A good/bad name can decide whether your guild fails or not! So try to make it fit you're guild, if its just a nice friendly leveling guild, make a humorous name! If it's a serious raiding guild, make it Epic and Heroic sounding! My own guild is named on Nazgrel. Whisper Vaelyia if you would like to join! :D After you have thought of a fantastic name, head out to get 10signatures! Tell people in chat that you're buying guild charter signatures for 1-2g and you will usually get a good response. If that's not working, head down to a starting village, where new players will be happy to sign your charter.

After you have obtained 10 signatures, visit your Guild Master and hand it in!

CONGRATULATIONS! YOU NOW HAVE YOUR VERY OWN GUILD!

Now for a very agonizing process... recruiting. Make a Macro, something like " is a Leveling and Dungeon oriented Guild! We have 3 guild tabs, and lots of friendly members that would love to have you join! Please wisp for more info :)"

This usually gets you a few whispers in a major city. Starting a guild is very difficult, people leave as soon as they realize it's a new guild. But once it hits around 100+ members, the pace will start to pick up, and new recruitees will be pouring in! Make a guild promotion, maybe for every 10 recruits someone gets, a promotion is rewarded? Anyhow, quality over quantity, so recruiting a few nice and helpful guildies is better than recruiting a dozen rude and mean junk guildies!

That's basically it! Hopefully you're guild will bloom into a steady and infamous guild on your server! And be sure to link our site (WoW Secrets, Tips, Strategies, Guides) on your Guild info! You owe it to us, since it's our help on raiding, instancing, guild, gold farming, leveling, and grinding problems that has helped YOUR guild prosper! :P

I hope I will be soon hearing word that your guild, created off this guide has turned into the most desirable guild on your server! (As long as it's not Nazgrel :P)
