Why did you join your guild?

As we're enjoying hating people of other factions, I can't help but take a step back and think about what made me choose my allegiance back in the day. So! What made you TE? RoC? Radiance? Evo? Shadow? SentinelS? VOODOO? Avengers? or whatever guild you're in?

For me it was completely random. I saw a TE member flying over City of Lost and I thought "dizzamn, they must gotz teh hi lvlz"

Then the ex TE leader BlazeofGlory responded to my LFG thread:
http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=44031

She wrote to me in PM using pretty pathetic English but remembering what I saw in City of Lost the other day I decided to give TE a shot. Most of the regular TE of those days are no more but my loyalty remains (what a touching story!)

now you.

    I like mine because....well I created it. b:mischievous Well....at least, for one thing, I don't have to be bothered in joining someone else's obnoxious/drama-filled or otherwise **** guild (not saying all are but most seem to be). Afterall I'm one of a kind IRL myself and anyone who wants to join me can. b:laugh

    I joined my guild because they openly accept green people.

    Well we didn't know he was green until it was too late. Now we're stuck w/ him, because he has blackmail on all of us. lol jk :p

    I joined my guild because I wanted a TW guild, and lots of people to have fun w/ all the time.

    I was in Empire for the first 9 or 10 days the server opened (I blame my husband), but I was unhappy there and quickly left for Radiance and never looked back. Which was a good idea because Blazeofglory tried to say I was a spy for Radiance because I left. LMAO because theres sooo much info to gain in the first 9 days of the server. No offence to TE.

    Love Radiance. It's been good to me from the beginning and I'm so very glad I had the opportunity to join. b:victory

    So I had been wanting to be picky about what faction I joined. I wanted one that would treat me like family, one where I didn't feel that upper lvl elitist junk and one that no matter my position in the faction I would always be treated the same as everyone else. So one day this guy named Illusion from Shadow stopped by my siggy thread and asked for one.

    He presented himself quite well and seemed nice. So Shadow went into my group of possible factions. So I wrote Illusion a PM one day asked him a million and one questions and he was nice enough to answer them all. I had decided Shadow would be the faction for me. I love Shadow and everyone that makes it what it is. =) We are a great family.

    Well, I joined RoC mainly because me and my friends were looking for an active guild. We've seen RoC from other places, and decided to join them since we knew we could find some fun in there. I guess you could say the communitty is pretty awesome, with some kinky stuff happening in vent every now and then. The TWs are also intense, we're basically the center of attention every week :\. RoC has a lot of great people as well, contrary to popular belief.

    I was in a guild just because they accepted low levels.
    Then I met someone in game and she became a good friend. She started a guild so I joined her.

    Well I joined Spectre in the MY server on Oracle and loved the people so much I decided to migrate on over to international with them =) and thus I became a member of Evolution right from the start! I love Evolution, It's perhaps the best guild I've ever been a member of and its given me the opportunity to meet and learn about so many different people ^.^ I love meeting all the other people in different factions as well and being a member of Evolution has given me the chance to do just that b:pleased I know certain other faction leaders may have only the worst things to say about Evolution, but its really a very kind and caring guild to be a member of b:chuckle

    Hey... well I was in Smirnoff first for like a day or so... I didn't really like the people and only joined because I was level 19 and had never been in a guild before. So I then made my own guild, DarkFire, and that lasted for a good two or three months. But then all the people in my guild started leaving because there wasn't enough high levels to fulfill their questing needs. So, after just about all my friends left, I followed them- to SentinelS. The guild's great, with good people and just all around amazingnessness. So yeah, we rule ^^.

    I have had quite the journey of guilds probably so far. But most is my own fault. Im way to picky and stuck up. I have lots pf pet peeves and tend to be annoyed very quickly on mmorpgs by other players which often makes finding a guild that Im not leading hard. But after leading a 200 man guild on pw my for 9 months I came here wanting a break lol.

    My first guild was TE...I joined less tahn 10 min after they made it. I stayed less than 2 days.. hated BlazeofGlory, way too many annoying other guildies and alot of arrgant pricks.. Sorry just my opinion. I hope its changed for the good since, however I could never bring myself to try to go back to find out after my first experience there.

    I joined Sinful next was a great mature relaxed guild. That was my only complaint they were too relaxed. I was quickly outlvling the guild and had noone to do anything with. Most of them just wanted to hang out and at that time in the game I wanted to lvl etc. So i bid them a tearful and friendly farewell and went to look for a guild with players my lvl.

    I did a WC and got swamped with PMs lol, but one came from Liehn he was in Elysium. I hadnt wanted to join Elysium at first but after talking to Liehn and enjoying our convo I agreed to join.Elysium itself wasnt a bad guild. They did have some members that kinda ruined it for everyone sometimes but usually they were easily ignored. After some leadership changes though and some bad desicions made by those in charge. Liehn and I both left the guild and agreed to join the next guild together.

    Liehn choose Evolution and I followed. Everyone was very close in Evolution, it was a bit overwhelming at first. Like most large guilds they had a few members who annoyed me but I could easily ignore. I shared a difference of opinion with some others on many things, and after a few road bumps things have smoothed out some now. I have met some great new people and hopefully things will continue to smooth out.

    My next stop if I ever leave Evo will probably just be guildless. I dont want to lead another guild and the majority of the guilds on our server just dont seem like a good place for me. So we shall see what happens.

    b:bye

    pretty much. Radiance is my home. Community is one of the few reasons i stick to a game. PW's PvP isnt enough for me to go on without a guild. Radiance is by far the best guild ive ever been in, in all the MMO's ive ever played

    I was in TE when it first hit level 3, then was kicked about 3 weeks later because I didn't log on for 4 days cause I was on vacation. b:sad I didn't receive a invite back when I got back from vaca, so I decided to look else where.

    Now I'm in RoadKill. Which I decided to join because Azhadi seemed to care bout what was happened with guild mates and such. Also because I have to follow Jaded where ever she goes because I'm her stalker. So far I'm very happy with my choice seeing as I have met a lot of amazing people and get a lot of help from my guild mates.
