Every Monday Scott Andrews contributes Officers’ Quarters , a column about the ins and outs of guild leadership. With Patch 3.3, the new LFG interface will certainly reshape PUGs as we know (and loathe) them. This week, one reader wants to know how the new system might affect guilds. Hi there Scott, As we all know, patch 3.3 will bring many great things. As a guild leader, one of the new features makes me happy but also slightly worries me: the new LFG system. Of course, it’s a big boon to everyone and will greatly increase the chance of success of pugs (particularly the lower level dungeons), but it also takes away that what I liked about pugs: meeting new players from your own server.

Some stories of drama on the realms aren’t directly guild-related, but they’re just too good to pass up. The one above is just such a story — one of our tipsters was just flying around Azeroth one day when a conversation in General caught his eye. One unlucky Time-Lost Proto-drake seeker ran into his very own Griftah, and ended up with 425 less gold and a very “unusual” toy item. That story and more in this week’s Guildwatch, which starts right after the break. If you have downed, recruiting, or drama news for us, feel free to send a tip in to guildwatch@wow.com , and you might see it here in the future. Read on for more!

Looking for a guild? Well, you can join ours! We have a tabard and everything! Check back for Amanda Dean talking about guilds and guild leadership in We Have a Tabard . So you’ve got goals for your guild, and you’ve been working very hard toward recruiting new members. One of your next big challenges is keeping them around. Turn over is a plague among beginning and middle-tier guilds. Sure, guild dynamics like raid rules and bank privileges play into who stays and who goes from your guild, but it is more important to help make someone feel a part of the team. Think about your own experiences in joining guilds . Have you ever been in one where nobody seemed to talk to you, except to ask if you could make them a flask? What about the guild that shifts their raid times, and doesn’t make it clear to all members. WoW is a social world and new guildies are subject to the same anomic forces that someone might feel during their first few weeks at a new job. First things first. Let your new guildies in on your expectations . It’s helpful to have guild policies posted permanently on a website so that they can quickly learn what to do and what not to do. Be firm, fair and consistent with enforcing these rules for new guildies as well as established guild members. For example, loot systems can be daunting at first. Have a clear explanation and be prepared to answer questions. You may consider appointing an established member to helping your rookies learn the ropes.

Hey guys heres a great article all about Guildwatch: "My laywer is processing a subpoena"

Isn’t weird how, though they always promise there’s a lawsuit or a subpeona on the way, it never actually appears in the mail? I’ve made my share of people angry in game (though not on purpose, never on purpose), and it’s amazing how many players have cousins who happen to be lawyers or attorneys, ready to sue for the smallest thing at a moment’s notice. If you all ever do get sued for something you do in-game, be sure to let us know — it’d be a pretty historic case. In the meantime, you can always let us know about any drama, downed, or recruiting news you see on the forums or ingame — just drop us a note at guildwatch@wow.com . Hit the link below to read what we’ve got on offer this week.
