ok i've seen this on many threads. but if you people could please help me out what the heck are the 1337 numbers or what are they supposed to represent.

thank you..

i once joined a guild, and for every new member they gave out 10k and i've never asked for a gold or plat for that matter from anyone. and i refused it i have my coin and the leader was kinda shocked but i said i just want to gvg, pvp, with a good guild. he though cool "if you need anything just let me know". so anyway...nice stories..very funny

Anyone got any other pics or quotes from recruiters who were just going about it the wrong way?
Are we certain he means 100g not 100k?! don't sign anything!

Last night my guild leader mentions that she sometimes "plays naked", because she's fresh from the shower. I commented that I was going to start recruiting guildies, by saying that we had "naked girls dripping wet from the shower willing to talk to you on our vent server - pm for guild invites".

Hehe - I remember taking collections from my guild for a cape. We had all joined GW more or less at the same time (we were friends IRL). All our characters were less than level 10.

2K seemed like a lot of money back then...

No one's mentioned the "cool capes" benefit?

I know no one's gonna say "our capes suck" But please! The things some people classify as "cool" amazes me sometimes LOL.

In TA we had a guild group and we just totally messed a group up in 37 seconds. They offered us all 80k each to join their guild, one of our members took the offer (they did give him the money), but why would you leave your guild when you can make that money easily.... Guildship > Money

One time a guy said: First person to join the guild become leader with me! I was laughing my head off as you are only able to have 1 leader.

Worst is "Join my guild you F--king guild you retards"
Sad how often it occurs. Also saddly ironic how many stupid people wind up on their hands because of the decision.

I've always found it amusing how EVERYONE has a 'cool' cape.

1337

It translates as 'LEET' which is a bastardised abreviation of "ELITE"

The irony is that so many people use it now that it is infact not 'elite' to use it. Heh.

Hehe, our cape is pretty spiffy, but no guild hall. I haven't been able to get them into PvP.

Like a lot of guilds, a lot of the guild doesn't play so much anymore.

Here's to hoping Factions brings them back.
