Our last guild was a successful end game raiding guild in World of Warcraft.

At the end of the day, we all just want to have fun playing the game. If you have any questions about us, feel free to post in the public forums after registering and I'll check back regularly. Otherwise, contact Haunted or Krimok in game on the Gladden server.
- Lords of Mead - Lords of Mead was founded on the basis of a casual kinship, initially members of Travellers of Ennor, but the core group decided that our vision of 'casual' was different. We're a relatively small group, with the core of officers dedicated to high level crafting (most mastered tier3 before open-beta ended) and out to kick arse, HAVE FUN & PLAY THE GAME...and DRINK MEAD! :D We're a lighthearted bunch of (mostly) guys who don't want to be bogged down with 'drama' or spending our limited gaming hours IM'g ppl...we're all about voice chat and have a vent server. We're currently 'closed' to new members, but we are on the lookout for a dedicated weaponsmith & scholar, or anyone who proves to be invaluable. We'd welcome anyone to fellowship with us if you wanna 'give us a try' and 'force' us to bring you on-board :). We hate gankers, and we have a general policy of being polite about resources, unless you give us a reason not to (like ganking our resources while fighting, etc)...thus please send Qihao any complaints regarding our members and I'll look into it. Good hunting and see you in-game...and DRINK MORE MEAD! ;)
