I pretty much fell in love with my current guild the moment I joined it. In the six (nearly seven now, isn’t it?) years I’ve been playing World of Warcraft, I’ve belonged to very, very few guilds, and there’s a reason for that — once I find one I like, I stick with it. Despite belonging to only a handful of guilds in my WoW lifetime, I’ve run the gamut from casual to hardcore raiding to RP to casual raiding. Each guild was run a little differently, and each guild had its own methods of recruiting. Today we’ve got a handful of posts about guilds:

• Hots and Dots has an oldie but goodie: 10 tips to successfully apply to a raiding guild.
• Tastes Like Battle Chicken gives us a list of 5 things you should know before you app.
• World of Matticus has some words of wisdom when a raider is not a team member.
• Lastly, Bible of Dreams talks about leaving your guild without burning bridges.

Either you’re in the beta or you’re not — but regardless of whether or not you’ve gotten the golden ticket (so to speak), there’s still plenty to read about regarding the upcoming Cataclysm expansion:

• I Like Bubbles is moving full steam ahead to Cataclysm.
• World of Matticus discusses holy power and more for the post-Cataclysm paladin.
• Daughter of Ravenholdt Manor talks Cataclysm lore — specifically, the Defias Brotherhood. (Warning: Cataclysm spoilers!)
• WoW.blogspot.com/”>Gray Matter talks about the druid changes in the WoW.blogspot.com/2010/07/twitter-chat-and-cata-builds.html”>upcoming expansion.

Here at WoW.com, we’re on a WoW.com/category/the-daily-quest/”>Daily Quest (which we try to do every day, honest) to bring you interesting, informative and entertaining WoW-related links from around the blogosphere.

Remember running WoW.com/photos/scholomance/”>Scholomance a hundred times just to try to get that last piece of WoWhead.com/itemset=183″>Dreadmist? And no one ever wanting to bother killing WoWhead.com/npc=10503″>Jandice because she was optional and annoying? (It’s true: I’m speaking from personal experience.) Times and loot tables may have changed, but we’re still a bit gear-obsessed. So, for today’s quest, here’s what’s been going ’round the blogosphere about gear.

• Blessing of Fish talks about why our gear is special.
• Larísa at the Pink Pigtail Inn is on the hunt for a decent cloak.
• Relevart’s Druid Reliquary talks about epic gear feeling epic.
• Cynwise points out an important question from the recent dev chat: will we be able to wear a monocle with our top hat?

• Borsked chats about the newly pruned restoration tree for shaman.
• Warcraft Hunters Union has some words about the developer Twitter chat in regards to hunters.

WoW.com/tag/for-gnomeregan/”>For Gnomeregan! is where the members of <B.L.O.G.> on Shadow Council (US-RP-A) roleplay guild meetings as part of an in-blog and in-game RP campaign. The rules for this campaign are: no ERP (Erotic RolePlay) and no vampires (though death knights are welcome). Everyone is invited to participate. Assume that to get into the guild, you at least pretended to be in full use of your faculties and are willing to fight for the cause. You are all welcome to join us here in the comments and those who wish to play with us in-game should friend Peenk and ask for an invite on Shadow Council (US-RP-A).

Thank you for coming to this emergency meeting. Our representative with WoW.com/2010/04/08/operation-gnomeregan-imminent/”>Operation Gnomeregan has contacted me with the news that WoW.com/2010/07/19/24-hour-maintenance-for-select-servers-on-tuesday/”>many new refugees are about to arrive at Coldridge Valley. They have requested that we accommodate them by incorporating the refugees into our guild and feeding them.

Hands Springsprocket has also contacted me. It seems that he needs to get a large number of supplies to Thunderbrew Distillery. So we are not only going to allow these refugees to join us, we are going to put them to work. And then we’ll sit down and have a party, to relax and welcome our new members.

I know this is short notice, but we must mobilize! Meet at the Coldridge Pass in Coldridge Valley at 9 p.m. on Tuesday. I will give further instructions at that time.

((Full details in non-RP format are after the break.))

Hello! Peenk Sparklebolt here. In order to efficiently lead tonight’s WoW.com/2010/07/19/refugee-party-roleplay-server-maintenance-event/”>Refugee Party, the Operation Gnomeregan engineers have provided me with this gadget thingee. I’m not sure how it works, but it seems that people outside of our guild can actually hear me and see what we are doing tonight. Fascinating. I will be dismantling it to see how it works after this shindig is over.

Anyway, you can hear and see what is happening on my gadget thingee right now, or you can join us at the Refugee Party in Coldridge Pass. But hurry! We’re starting immediately.

(( Watch the stream above or at WoWdotcom”>WoW.com’s Justin.tv channel. If you wish to join us on Shadow Council (US-RP-A) for tonight’s RP event, please read the WoW.com/2010/07/19/refugee-party-roleplay-server-maintenance-event/”>details and rules for the Refugee Party. ))

While we’re all skulking about waiting for our servers to come up — or skulking about on Shadow Council waiting for WoW.com/2010/07/19/refugee-party-roleplay-server-maintenance-event/”>tonight’s RP event — it seems as good a time as any to talk about pretending to be people we aren’t in places we aren’t. (Secret: I’m not actually a troll shaman. But do keep it quiet.)

• Some oldies but goodies from Too Many Annas, covering being left out of RP and the many places RP can go.
• The Lazy Sniper talks about choosing names for characters.
• It may not be WoW-centric, but the latest issue of The Escapist is all about roleplaying.
