Unlimited - PvP Guild

[zigzag]

Greetings to all,

On behalf of the guild, I am proud to present to you…Unlimited.

Keep in mind as you read that all of the leaders who put this guild together are full-time professional adults with families, friends, and other real life commitments/responsibilities. While our aim is to find people who already have a great deal of confidence in their PvP abilities, we do not expect this game to become “life”.

Guild Philosophy
For some, the overall enjoyment of the online gaming experience is amplified by the company they keep, to the point where it trumps the game’s content itself. Unlimited is dedicated to building a guild around the quality of players we invite, rather than the need to be the most or best “anything”. That’s not to say that our practices will not include a competitive edge; in fact, we see ourselves in the top tiered PvP ranks of Guild Wars 2. Unlimited members are players who seek to explore the extent of their ability and perform beyond them. Steady progression and skill improvement are important, parallel to community relations. Being skillful at something should not be a license to put others down, rather to be a leader among peers to help steer them toward the same achievement you have reached.

Guild Expectations - Our full code of conduct can be found here. Some key points:

• Be active and participate
• Be mature, be friendly, remain open-minded, and excel in a progressive environment that aims for PvP excellence.
• Love the Challenge
• Value and respect fellow players – We want people who enjoy the company of others and consider “game friends” an important piece to their online gaming experience.
• Play within all ethical guidelines of gaming set forth by common sense and the Guild Wars 2 EULA

Breaking Borders - Server Unity
We are not "The stuck-up Elite". Unlimited will strive to improve the gaming experience of its members as well as the overall server community. WvWvW offers a wonderful opportunity for guilds to combine their PvP efforts and we will take every moment we can to work on our relations with the server to ensure that we are all successful.

We’re Not Just PvP!
Just because PvP is our focus does not mean we will not appreciate the PvE content that Guild Wars 2 has to offer. With the same vigor, we will approach and dominate PvE content.

Are you interested? There is still plenty of time for people to look for guilds, so we won’t ask you to join us. Rather, take a look at us, join us on our forum/teakspeak and get to know us. Find out why Unlimited is not only a guild that will intrigue you and want to follow, but one that you’ll want to roll with on the release of Guild Wars 2.

Update (1/22/2012): Unlimited has gone international!

As things had gotten underway, and Unlimited began to take shape, the majority of our members have been North American. Our tag on most fansites have been labeled "[NA]" to boot. Undergoing a recent growth spurt we have taken on members outside of the North American bracket and have decided it's time to shred away the "[NA]" tag. Our doors were never closed to those outside the North American circuit, however, we've just not had such vested interest shown until now. So with our new members from Europe we push out of our norm and are besting international lines.

Our intention is now to fill that bracket of time with international players, and North American players who play during the set times that someone from the GMT time zones will be participating. To be very clear, we are not initiating an international side to Unlimited. On the contrary we are looking to only expand our horizons. The international population will mesh just the same into our community, our family, as anyone from North America would. We are strongly opposed to segregation within our ranks, thus those who join us from across the seas will take up arms with us under one banner, "Unlimited".

We encourage anyone, from anywhere, looking for a guild and considering Unlimited to take the time to speak with us personally as the number of spots is filling up; don't miss the opportunity to be a part of something competitive, team (family) oriented, and dedicated to excellence in Guild Wars 2.

Your website is snowing!

I played with the snow for like 5 minutes... Anways! Welcome to the forums! Good luck with your guild and I hope to see you on the battlefield!

Welcome to the forums, and great website. Was the snow generated from HTML5?

I'm glad everyone enjoys the snow; I thought it was a nice touch for the time of year. It's a simple javascript include.

Forget the snow, come listen to my ranting. It's far more entertaining. Like a young Don Rickles.

Forming bonds between members prior to the release of Guild Wars 2 is at the top of our list of priorities. Going into Guild Wars 2 with a strong foundation capable of working together and communicating effectively will make the progression toward PvP excellence a smoother task. Having this open and friendly environment will also make it easier for new members to hop in and feel welcome.

In order to strengthen these bonds, Unlimited has chosen a couple of games to take part in. These games offer similar gaming experiences (MMORPG/strategy) that Guild Wars 2 will offer, emphasizing the importance of teamwork and quick decision-making.

Anyone who joins is welcome to participate with us, however, understanding that some games are just not for some people, we will not force anyone to play with us and are just as happy getting to know people on the forum and through Teamspeak. If you would like to participate with us as a method of deciding whether Unlimited is the right guild for you, don't hesitate to join our forum, post a topic and/or contact a guild member directly. You can also join us on Teamspeak for more details.

Too many guilds out there, not just for Guild Wars 2, exist for the wrong reasons. At the top of the list is this incredible obsession with size – the need of selfish leaders to have the most “underlings” in their “control”. Their enjoyment of the game comes solely from this control and should their guild fail (most inevitably do crumble under the weight of their own member count), the leaders quit the game and move onto their next game, bolstering their numbers for the new failure.

However, there is hope. A number of guilds exist for the right reasons, creating groups in which the need for numbers in a guild is surpassed by the goal of a cohesive group in which everyone plays their role effectively and no one is just a number. These groups often launch themselves to be among the elite within the overall gaming community; not solely as a force to be reckoned with, but also as one that is respected and admired.

I am very pleased to report that Unlimited is growing at a steady pace, carefully selecting the right members while allowing those who apply make sure they are selecting the right guild for them too. For us, the members we have become more than just fellow gamers, but family. Our member count evenly matches our activity count with every member having a reason to be here now, and a reason to stay in the future.

If Unliimited is not the guild for you, I implore you to do your research and find a guild that is suitable in every way. Be wary of those guilds that search for a huge member count; if you look carefully, you’ll find that of their “hundreds of members”, only about a fourth (generously) of them have been actually “active” within the guild since their first week in. Be more than a number and find something incredible.

Well said Daedalus! I've seen so many guilds who will let anyone and everyone into their guild with or without an application or trial process. Why not get to know the person before letting them in? If numbers weren't your main goal (which a lot of guilds claim) then why accept everyone (even creepers) who wants to join you? You as a guild leader bringing up this subject shows that Unlimited is a quality guild and not some cookie cutter guild who claims to be so awesomely epic in every way just because of the amount of members they have. There's so much more to it if you want a good, fun, quality guild.
