Guild Website: http://misfitbrigade.enjin.com/The Misfit Brigade is based off an old model of a very successful guild I used to be in and eventually helped run in vanilla WoW. We where a band of misfits from different guilds and different backgrounds who came together in a channel we made and used to communicate. Later after years of raiding together we eventually formed the official guild, but by then we all felt like pirates so we kept the name. We where on another server, and we where very successful. This is because we where the same people who leveled up and geared up together for years. We had developed great team work by always working together, trying new things, and re-running old content to help new players as well. This gave us almost telepathic communication when we would raid large scale, because we knew how the others behaved and how they would probably adapt to a changing situation, which allowed you to adapt accordingly quickly. Working together helps you build trust together too.
"You succeed more the more you work together." That's the most basic guiding principle behind MB.
This model is a fantastic one, but it requires special kinds of people, and we're looking for those people. People who dont mind giving to the guild, who dont mind helping other people out as well as being helped. At MB you get what you give. If we notice members just taking from the guild without trying to give back in any way, then you get the boot. We expect members to be trying to party together, make guild runs, and do what they can to assist other members so we can gear up and we can get to those raids.
We want to destroy the need to PUG for our members. Why should you have to subject yourself to such torture? Lets fill the guild up with skilled players who want to group with you so you never have to queue again just to be in a party full of people who may kill you.
Most of all we are looking for mature, honest, and friendly people. We want to improve our play style all the time, so we expect our members to give and take constructive educated criticism freely to each other without feeling like they are going to hurt anyone's feelings or anything like that. We want the guild to feel like a group of your close friends, who you can joke around with and have a great time with without worrying about stepping on anyone's toes. That being said, we expect people to be respectful and considerate of each other's feelings of course.
Our guild is just starting out, so anyone who may be interested in just joining to help us level the guild up would be welcome as well, though not applicable for full member status. Any members who help us level up the guild will be gaining life long benefits as long as they are in the guild, including free guild repairs, (when applicable) and other bonuses to be determined later on. (Please check the website for more up to date information, it is updated more often then this thread is)
We plan on starting to run some old contend raids soon for $%^&'s and giggles, and achieves hehe. Details and updates and news can be found on our website, as well as chat and ways to reach us. You can also find any of our officers online at any time and ask them anything you want.
We are excited to hear from you! Thank you for taking the time to look at The Misfit Brigade.
