I welcome the changes. They've been a long time coming. Most of the complaining I've been seeing in game has been from players too lazy to read the patch notes, or simply can't handle change. I would venture to guess that there are some players who've already had one foot out the door and needed to move on, anyway. More power to them. As for me, I look forward to enjoying the game I still love.

Must have Plush UI! It's like fantasy fur, only...well, it's fantasy fur, but I don't care. Want!

torstatus.net will give you a pretty good idea of server pop. They even break it down by daily/weekly/monthly population stats.

I honestly feel that until BW gives us an actual useful in-game resource for recruiting/looking for guilds, we're going to keep seeing people recruiting in general. Even a Guild Recruitment channel would be nice. Just because a guild advertises in general does not mean they allow anyone in or want to be a zerg guild. We point people to our website, where they can get more info about what kind of guild we are and what we look for in members. We are selective. We want players to know we're recruiting, but at the same time we're not a zerg guild that invites anyone who comes along. We also keep our ads to a bare minimum. I post in general maybe once an hour when I'm on and only on Fleet.

My husband and I play together. Ironically, I'm the one who got him into mmo's. I have one character that I play with him. However, I play more than him and level faster so I also have a few alts.

Definitely sticky worthy. This is an awesome tool for players looking for guilds.

Thanks for the replies. We do have other people we play with, we just like having a separate bank space for personal use between us. We wanted to get one created before the banking system came in place (can't believe the game didn't start with one), and didn't want to waste the 5k, if it would disband when the other 2 left.

I haven't been able to find an answer anywhere on the site about this. My husband and I usually keep a guild exclusively for our char's so that we can share a bank, as we mostly play together or solo. I know you need 4 people to create a guild, however can you just have a 2 account guild?

I'm a female. I'm really surprised that female gamers still feel the need to hide their gender because of bias. I thought we were beyond that. Although, I do remember back in the day when a lot guilds wouldn't accept female players at all, and there was a lot of gender discrimination. Maye because I actively seek out players and guilds who don't support this type of atmosphere I don't see it. Ladies, keep playing. And while I agree that a person's gender should have no influence on how they're treated in game, I know that real life isn't fair, you still have to pick those you associate with. Side note: I've seen the female players who take advantage of the fact that they are female in game and it makes the rest of us look bad. But there are just as many d-bag guys in game doing the same thing.

This. We rolled as a guild on an RP server because we do have some members who RP. Some don't. However, we have a strict guild policy that all of our members adhere to regarding being respectful of the RP community.
