When I've been involved in the setup and/or running of guilds I've always thought that is was a good idea for the players to get to know each other as well as their characters getting to know each other through RP.

If you like roleplaying (regardless of your style), play during european times on the Balmung server and have a common sense approach to playing the game, we might have a guild for you!
