S do you prefer asking for an invite in game or applying on your website?

You guys seem like a great group to be with. I haven't played since launch mostly and just came back. I'm looking for a fairly active guild to chill with and get to know. I'll try to send you a tell if I see you on for more info. My character's name is Aja'leith btw

Which is the more popular option? What are the pros and cons for both?
