Not good enough to hang out with the cool guys

Submitted by Abalieno on September 17, 2008 - 17:09.

Apparently running a blog for more than four years doesn't get me even one humble spot in the blogger guild. They dismissed my application with a default message.

And they were complaining that Tobold got a free subscription with his blog! Me not even a guild invite from the same guys who were complaining!

Not that I'm too surprised. Not the first time I find unmotivated hostility toward me. "If you sit next to HRose you can't hang out with us anymore!" Even nerds bully me.

Still, if you’re interested in joining myself and folks like Cuppy. Darren, and Shwayder, and aren't known as HRose on the forums, here are the servers you should be interested in:

Thank you, fellow bloggers! I considered you friends!

I'm not in charge or anything, but I do know that open recruitment had closed. The only way in right now is by member referral, because the guild grew super fast and they want to regain a little control over things. If you want to get in, have a member recommend you.

It's nothing against you, it's the way things are at the moment.

I know how it is, like WoW's raiding ;)

To join a raid guild you need good raid gear. To have good raid gear you need to join a good raid guild.

So to have a member recommending me I need to be in the guild and know that member. Since I know no one personally and I'm not in the guild, I don't have a member recommending me.

Or join when recruitment opens again. Assuming you have not found another guild by then.

If you are on the same server, play alongside the members and get to know them. You don't need to be in the guild to get to know someone in the guild.

Mild proof.

It's exactly what I did, made a character, sent him a message, then applied on the forum explaining that he pointed me to it.

Possibly, when asked, he thought better of vouching me.

I understand the reactions toward me, not making a big fuss.

Maybe we need to start up a new guild, then? "Casualties of Casualties of WAR"?

I've been blogging since 1999 and I'm not even considered a blogger.
