Order of the grey and order of gray are two different guilds buddy

i was written to buy the "order of the grey" now known as blizzard mentor guild. i told he was lying cause he was not listed anywhere with that name. and he then trashtalked to me and puts me on ignore. so better start looking into who you recruit

I wonder if anyone in Blizzard can respond to this question.....Is there any plans to increase the Guild member cap in the near future. We regularly hit 1000 members and have to prune out the non-players to make way for new members. Also - I am unable to access the private forum - where this question is may be more appropriate. Many thanks guys

As you see there is many social/leveling guilds that act as a mentor guild for new players and that has been the case for as long as I can remember playing. What does this mean for those guilds? This is going to make it increasingly harder for other guilds to get members as the new players will want to join the guild that blizzard has selected to mentor them. This doesn't actually mean that Blizzards mentoring guild is any better than any other guild as it's just the same guild it always was. It would be different if this guild had blizzard staff in it that were helping but it's just regular players that have been given a bit of recognition by blizzard. I'm not on board with this new idea at all.. all that your doing is sticking a label on a guild that have been doing the same as many others have been for years.

Short version of this !@#$: The strong helps the weak become decent players, end of story.

tried to join a mentor guild after reading this. and was ignored, lowest level was a 33, i had loads of offers from other random guilds, do i just join a random guild ? thought this was supposed to help people like me, maybe when you make a character blizzard informs you of this mentor guild before other randoms get you

Al thought i would never participate in a program like this , i understand its usage. However, blizzard should have picked guilds/player with proven game experience to make it more 'legit' . A new player soon will ask something in the guild like 'what's the optimal glyph/spec rotation vs [type of mob] on that [ randomraid ] , or if you are in a PVP-mode playstyle, "whats the best 3v3 for my shadowpriest vs [ random 3v3 here ] " , and a gazillion other advanced questions that come in mind. So long story short, the experience of the players in the mentor-program guild should be really in mentor-level .

Aside from that 'flaw', i really think the newcomers should find a decent home to start their journey in wow.

why not all realms have a guild picked it would be fair as their are some brilliant guilds on nagrand.

So, everyone is siked about this idea now?
*Browses through the comments @ the other guild mentoring posts*

Change your mind much?

Hmmm.

I'm struggling to actually understand this. Someone explain what this is all about?

They should have made a C in GCSE English a requirement for this program.

Big welcome to all, an would like congratulate all the guilds that got chosen for the Blizzard Mentor Guild Program, i am a member in Kalida's guild Wombles of the World and i think this is a good program and i know we are all looking forword to welcoming our new players to wow and to our guilds and would like to add that kalida has made guild what is today friendly helpful guild and put alot of work into it to make it so. and would like to say thankyou. and again i wish you all the very best with the progam and hope goes well

Hi all, i would just like to forward a few things which we are seeing on Aszune and maybe put forward a idea for which may work regarding new players. We are seeing a huge amount of alts being created at the moment on Aszune, which are not in need of any help as they know how the game works, could it be a idea for blizz to try and incorporate something in the login screen where people can actually state there a new player, then automatically join the mentoring guild.?
I would also like to state the response we are getting from mains,alts across aszune is: its a fantastic idea and should of been organised a lot early on in the game. so not much negativity at all, which is good :)

I would like to say hello to all fellow members taking part in this project, we were all picked because we blizzard felt we can help new people and even people that aren't to understand the game better, to this I would like to say all the best of luck to all of us and any guild looking to help us in this program I would believe is more then welcome to help the guilds on there realm.
Regards Numnumgreens and happy Leveling =)

Idd like to say Good luck to everyone taking part my GM and the GM on the ally side that we have been talking to

I am sorry but this isn't a question of "helping people". The guys that got it on my server don't want to "help" people, they want to be recognised.

I am sorry but this whole farce is another way of hopped up egos to feel even more entitled, than they already are. This is certainly the situation on my server and i suspect on others too. Me and a good portion of our server disapprove of this!

If you also get Subscription for 2 months i will give you 5000 gold to get you started.

this is probably one of the better things that blizz have introduced in a while, if you ask me one guild on each faction on every server (changing the guild once every few months?) is a good idea for the future.

PS: hvis det er noen norske på serveren Twisting-nether, som leter etter en guild med ett godt sosialt miljø og hvor folk er hjelpsome, ta kontakt med augmented reality!

Heyy Guys,
I’d just like to say grats to all the guilds chosen to take part in what I personally think is a great idea, those representatives that have taken part in this forum so far have sounded courteous, friendly, and helpful, what more could you ask from a guild or its members ?
I’ve been with the same guild for over 6 years now, I’ve watched friendships grow, relationships develop ( one even progressing to marriage !! ) and we even now participate in regular guild meets once a year :-)
For some I am sure a guild is “a means to an end” to others it is much, much, more, for me it just makes an enjoyable experience even more enjoyable, I play for fun, and being a Dad, and hubby obviously I want to make the most out of the limited time I get to play and a guild helps me achieve that, I play with a philosophy where I treat everyone in a manner in which I would hope to be treated myself and that seems to work for me most of the time !!
I’m printing off the list of guilds taking part in the mentoring programme, you all sound really friendly and it’s always nice making new friends and meeting new peeps, I might poke one of you for an invite if that would be ok ;-)
Good Luck to all the participants, I’m sure there will be interesting and fun times ahead !! x

Excellant idea! I didn't know what trolling was until I joined WOW. I used to shy away from dungeons because as an older player I wasn't as adept as some of the younger players and I still struggle with some aspects. Good luck and lets hope you make it a pleasant experience for everyone.

Looking for a RaF!I am a friendly easy going WoW player. Me and my guild are easy to get on with and will help you with what ever you need :) My guild is lvl 25 and is very active with at least 150-200 only a day! also, alot of guild events on the calendar :) Let me know via, Skype;sammc16 or hotmail;sonicsam95@hotmail.co.­­uk i'll be paying for your mounts/skills/items!
