Creating a successful RP Guild

In World of Warcraft and many other MMOs, a successful RP guild is a safe haven for role players to gather and engage in immersive role-playing without fear of persecution. The primary goal of a roleplaying guild is to foster a community of like-minded players who share a passion for creating and living out unique storylines within the game world.

Create a backstory

In creating a successful RP guild in Wow, you must start out with some sort of backstory. For instance, I lead a guild with a backstory centered around a princess who lost her kingdom and must rebuild it after its destruction.

To accomplish this, the princess needs to find a strong and fierce partner who is willing to support her leadership while providing the necessary strength. Her “kingdom” is her guild as she works to rebuild this while awaiting her betrothed and her wedding date.

Have an RP officer

The RP officer oversees RP rule enforcement, event organization, and player assistance and education. Don’t assume players know RP; explain it delicately based on their level, age, or medical conditions.

Recruit Role Players

Don’t say “The house of Sylvanas” is looking for new players to join our ranks. Pull up a chair, sit, and chat with me.” You should say something like “The house of Sylvanas is an RP guild, and we are looking for new role players to come to join the house of Sylvanas. If you knock on our door, we will surely answer. Come! See if we are a good fit for you.”

When recruiting role players you may even be asked what your story is for the guild, this is usually to see if they would fit with your story. Nobody likes to change their story to suit the needs of a guild & they should not have to. You should not expect them to change their story and they should not expect you to change your guild’s story.

Clear Set of Rules

Make sure your rules are laid out in the beginning. If you don’t want the guild chat to be used for anything other than role-play, then create an OOC channel and make sure new members join it right away. 

Plan Events

Planned events create guild bonding. this allows the guildies to get to know one another. Never know what can come from these too! 

These are the few simple steps you can utilize in creating a successful RP guild in WoW. Have fun with your RP guild and I do hope this was quite helpful to you.
