Auld Engineer,
After reading your posts, I believe that you would be the perfect addition to our guild, and I will be sending you an invite today
The Crusaders, tc, is a social guild. While the web site attracted me to tc, it is the people that have kept me here. I have learned a lot from guildee's, such as Baggy, Reno, Tilt, and, I believe they have learned a little from me in return, but, most importantly, we have a lot of fun. There is nothing in the game comparable to getting this group on team speak, and joking around while battling though a difficult mission.

Did I mention that a lot of us remember when PONG was released, and left mesmerized with the graphics of Pac-Man and Donkey Kong.

Actually, it is just the opposite. The experienced player will attempt to decrease the number in the party in order to increase the drop ratio of the higher end weapons. A built that could solo a difficult area generally guarantees a vast fortune to be made.

Hmmmm. In PvE, the foes generally have a set pattern, and "squad tactics" are not really needed; however, in PvP your military background would be an asset to any guild. Allow me to explain, in PvE, once you learn the pattern, you have conquered the mob, end of story. However, in PvP, real people adapt to change, and what worked last time may not necessarily work this time. A good PvP team works very hard at designing a built, trying it out, and then talking about it. In matter of fact, the better teams spent more time designing and fixing then they do playing.

I don't agree. I believe that you would be a perfect fit in the guild, especially with your background.
With the holding of Cavalon, and the popularity associated with the opening of the elite mission to all, we had a lot of "glory seekers" join, and leave, our guild. It is now time we return to our old ways, a social guild which, above all, at the end of the day, consists of friends
That is, until the next time that the Guild Wars comunity needs our help
