I found this guild by Thunderblade's sig on the AoC forums, I think I was his first official member, so there weren't too many other ways to find it.
About what Hagios was talking about
: Being in an early guild isn't for everyone (which some people will find out as the months go by with no game). However, what always bothers me about people who post and tell people NOT to join a guild early is that while it's not for everyone, it IS right for some people. This is the 4th guild now in which I joined before the game came out (I think 4, my mind is fuzzy). One didn't make it, and that was rather sad... but it was the lack of leadership that doomed that guild. The second one I was in made it, but it was for SWG and I really had some issues with that game as it was released unfinished... I think to be fair to SWG I discovered that I'm more of a fantasy MMORPG player than sci-fi. The third early guild I joined a year before release, and is still going strong in WoW. That one is a great example of a success with early guilds. I feel very confident having seen the ups and downs of an early guild that Thunderblade is the right kind of leader to keep it all together... I'm very optimistic.
