Those rules are MUCH better--good job! However, you're still missing the critical element. It's not the rules.

It's the Raison d'Etre (reason for being).

To really draw people in, you need to have a reason for somebody to want to join the guild. What's the PURPOSE of your guild?

You have a great start.

Okay.

"HEY OTHER GUILDS! IF YOU WANT TO HAVE A SUCCESSFUL GUILD HAVE A RAISON D'ETRE!"

As for you, I'm not attacking. I'm trying to help you establish and build a decent guild. Why? Well, because you asked.

What's my shtick? Check out my webpage and thread in the guilds forum. How do I get members?

We help people (n00bs and old farts alike) and crew up a LOT. I rarely see groups of guildmates crewed up for events like I see the Krewe do. And I rarely see guild webpages like mine. My guildies like to see their exploits in writing--so they crew up with me and the next thing they know they're in print.

For me, ME getting ahead isn't the thing. Enjoying the game is. And I still get a lot of enjoyment from crewing up with others and helping out. People LIKE that and want to join.

Just saying.
