Big GuildsFollow

Big Guilds, Big guilds suck having to raid every day is brutle... my friend in the big guild, he dont get to see his family much so he left.. I made a guild so people wouldnt have to raid as much and its big for 50+ but no one would join.. Who would wanna raid that much any way??? I hate raiding my self..

You dont need to raid every day to be a big guild. I love raiding and seeing new content that most casual players wont see. We raid 3 days a week in my current guild and are high end GoD aswell as killing the king in RS and PG trails.

As draco said the Raiding Guilds are the driving force atm as there are a lot of guilds that are high end with a lot of peeps that own more than one account.

Play the game as you wish to play it. You want to raid every day join a guild that raids everyday... want to raid a couple of days a weeks find a guild that raids a couple of times a week... want to not raid... find a guild that dont raid.

I think the OP's name says it all...

LOL I love this! I can't believe there is a fill in the blank flame post. May I use it sometime if deemed necessary? I try not to flame peeps but sometimes you just can help it. Great post =) (going to grab my toaster now...)

On Bertox, i am in i think the largest guild(by numbers of toons in guild) on the server. We only raid 3 or 4 times a week, and it is not mandatory. We just have a good group of people that help each other out.

Big does not necessarily mean mandatory raiding.

I think for those that cross the line from casual to raiding it can be overwhelming. Typically you will have a lot of catching up to do. Flags, gear etc. The only way to get those are putting in the hours. I know when I went from one side to the other I had that same reality check.

Now I really don't have anything else to do in the game but raid. Many people playing EQ are always pushing the end of the expansions in the bigger guilds. If your only logging on to raid you probably are spending less time in the game then those logging on to play normally.

As already stated most of the really large guilds are so big that once your established, caught up and comfortable you don't have to raid as much. They have more than they need to have a raid on any given day/night.

yes you do >_>
