i'm in a guild that has become victim of the "poached" mentality. It's too bad, too, since the only reason I'm still in WoW is because of the guild's amazing friendships. The 70's finally got tired of not getting the endgame raiding started (even Kara was not in our sights, as casual as we were), so they jumped ship to a more serious guild.

Granted, perhaps that's what our guild needed the whole time, but the fact that we've lost our mainstays is pretty much writing on the wall for the beginning of the end of our AWESOME guild. I'm truly sad. I've coped by rerolling horde on another server to tide me over for a while, but I'm starting to wonder why I'm playing this game again. :(

I still don't have a 70 (60 is as far as I've gotten in a year, but filled with 3 other solid alts), but I'm thinking I may never get there at this pace.

WTB good guild on Echo Isles - Alliance, plzkkthxbai. :(

I'm a guild officer in a small casual social guild and we get poached all the time.

Niko I feel your pain. Players come to our guild because they pug with us, feel like we are nice people and stay because the like the friendly atmosphere. Then they hit 70 and get lured by the "shiny epix" and find them selves in a raiding guild.
