Once upon a time our guild lived happily ever after; Then the GM decided we wernt doing good enough in our raids and decided to jump guilds thus we all split up leaving me in a panic

My raid leader went to another guild, we'll call it the "RLG" (Raid leader's guild) she doesnt own this guild and tossed me in invite she said she told the people I was a teenager and they said it was maturity they were after, cool n stuff.


so I go to sign up on the website and it says I need a working mic and to be 18+

im not 100% sure if my raidleader asked the RLG or just invited me also, a working mic + this voice, its not fun even for me.

I dont see me staying in this guild if things keep going down hill and I dont want to be a guild hopper so basically, I need a plan, my current thoughts are see how it goes, it doesnt go well go lone wolf until the next expac where people will be recruiting for raids or go into another guildie's guild

anyway, thats that, any advice?

also now you all know im a teenager O.o

EDIT: should this be here? feel free to move it or delete it, dunno if this forum is even on with this, its just the only WoW forum I actually like.

My advice: If you're unhappy, explain to them that you don't feel happy and wish to find a guild where you feel more at home and can meet your needs. It always helps to leave on a good note and don't burn bridges. It's okay to hop from guild to guild so long as you're not being a Gbank thief or a mooch. Sometimes it takes awhile before you find the guild you like.

What Junrei said. Also how do you raid without speaking? Thats kinda a standard thing for raiding guilds so i think at some point you will need to suck it up and speak. No ones going to care what you sound like....hell my last RL had a lisp!

Some people don't like having to run programs like vent or they don't wish to speak to total strangers that they have met online.

My sister plays with her teenage daughters. My sister is a guild leader of a raiding guild-she does not allow her daughters to speak or listen to vent, they are too young for the immaturity of some of the players of the game. I could see other parents not wanting their childern talking to total strangers online in voice, where there is no record of what is being said, where as in wow chat, there is a log and you can block vulgar language.

That said, unless you are a hrd core raider, there is nothing that says you have to be in a guild, or a large guild at that. My guild consists of myself, my best friend, my brother and two of my coworkers. We don't raid except for pugs or LFR.

Sounds like this guild won't be the one for you, but as Junrei said, just let them know that (don't burn bridges!) and go and find a guild that suits your needs.

That said, I have raided for many years, both casually and hardcore, and have never spoken on vent, ever. If you prove to be a competent player, most guilds won't actually enforce the "requirement."

That's a very oddball guild. I've never been in a raiding guild that ran like that. Any raiding guilds I've been in(including my own when we do raid a little), they always require Vent or Mumble. You don't have to talk, just listen.

yeah Im 100% fine with listening but my voice is just bleh

I did look at their armory and website it seems they're a somewhat hardcore normal raiding 25 man guild, I think my plan is see how it goes, dont burn bridges if it doesnt work out pick 10 guilds or so that I might like and narrow it down to get the best guild for me.
