Would you start a Guild now?

[MiRai]

After 2 weeks of being in a guild with the possible intention of leaving them on a whim, why would you want to
be an Officer? Also, why would a guild, after 2 weeks, give you an Officer position... do they just hand out that
title to anyone that asks?

Cause in the few weeks that I've in the guild, I've already contribute alot of xp. And they know that. I am just trying to figure out where to start putting xp that would benefit me the most.
And I've been 85 for two weeks, been in the guild since getting out of dk zone....so maybe a month.

Being an Officer is holding a position of leadership. Just because you can contribute the largest amount of XP
towards the guild does not make you a good leader at all nor does it warrant being an Officer. If the guild
leader is competent they will make the right decision as to who is an Officer and who is not based on their
leadership skills. On the other hand, if they're just handing out titles to their closest friends, well... good luck
with that.

As for whether or not you should start your own guild with just yourself... the choice is simple:
Do you want to log in and there be people online you can talk to or do you want to log in to a guild that is
completely empty? I would find that the latter would become boring very quickly regardless of how "in
control" I was.

the best way i have found to get you guild level up is arena.
You could just invite people to you new guild to help level it up. just send them a wispier " Hey i was wondering if you were interested in joining a guild? find people using the "WHO" tab start with deathknights 55-59
60% said yes to joining mine. once you get to level 5 you get the revenue guild perk, free gold then.
The only downside of having you own guild is that if you want the guild rewards you might have to get friends or do them yourself.
So join a level 25 guild with everything unlocked, Get to Exalted then buy all the stuff your toons need and then create your guild!

You can always create some macro's on your slaves who greet you when you log on (provided you log your main the last).

hehe, or get drunk and change the "Guild message of the day" for fun and giggles the next morning!

I just dinged 25 yesterday on my guild.

Pretentious Latin Name - Alleria.

Was leveled mostly by me doing dailies on 2 sets of toons and running heroics to gear up my toons.

We did take a break for 4 months back in January else we would have dinged a lot sooner.

All in all, you can do it!
