Hello Nexus! First off, just want to say, as a WoW refugee, I'm loving this game so far. Granted, I have a level 7 and a level 6, but from what I've seen, this game will be a ton of fun gameplay-wise.
 
That being said, what keeps me playing games that my RL friends have not adopted (My best gaming friend won't touch Wildstar because he paid for H1Z1 and a sub to SW:TOR this month and wants his money's worth...which I feel I won't get myself from those two) is the social aspect of a guild. On my Exile, I just got to Thayd last night and only saw raiding guild recruitment, and my Dommie hasn't even gotten to their capital yet. While I would like to raid (I have raided in every WoW expansion since WotLK), I think level 7 is a bit too low. :P 
 
My question is, are there actually leveling/social guilds here, or do raiding guilds serve the same purpose? I just want to know before I go ahead and join up with a raiding guild while I'm still way too low to even set foot in the raids. Secondly, would posting that question in Guild Recruitment (Entity) be out of bounds for the forum? Should I just post in zone chat in Thayd tonight? Suggestions?

Yes.  I run one on Entity (Blazing Saddles) and we're far from the only one.  If you're an Exile on Entity, you can also look into Black Dagger Society, Final Frontier, Crimson Cross, and a whole host of other guilds that take on newcomers.  In addition, there are also leveling circles in case you want to join a guild focused on something else, but want to keep in touch.  And, additionally, you'd want to join the LFG channel for your server and faction (on Entity Exiles, you'd just type /chjoin LFG).
 
And you'll definitely want to stop by your server's guild recruitment subforum here.

There certainly are!
 
Blazing Saddles is just that kind of social, no-stress guild. We do content, we RP, I *think* some of them are doing the first raids.
 
You can find most of our regulars in the Morning Coffee thread.

Welcome to Nexus! We are happy to have you here with us. :)
 
There are several guilds on Exile side that are casual, new/returning player friendly, social/leveling guilds. If you are going to stay Exile, you can look me up in-game, names and guild are in signature, to either join us or to help you find the right guild for you. Or you can ask for any Blazing Saddle for an invite. Just /chjoin LFG global chat or ask in zone chat in Thayd.
 
As for the Entity forums: yes that would be a better place to put this post. However, a mod will come by shortly and move it for you. :)
 
May all your adventures be filled with fun!

I wasn't quite sure where to put this, so yeah, if it needs to be moved, let's take the thread, and push it somewhere else!
 
I did join the Entity Exiles LFG channel last night (I remembered seeing it on the forums so I joined up), and saw people advertising for groups and guilds like crazy, so I know this game has quite the population. I'm excited to keep going, and a guild will help out a lot. I think I'll hunt down you Blazing Saddles tonight after work (Shh...I'm being bad and posting on the forums while I should be working! Don't tell!).
 
Also, if a mod needs to move this thread, please do so! Sorry for putting it in the wrong spot!
 
Thanks for the advice and the warm welcomes, guys! :)

			For future reference exiles should start saying go dominion to new players if you want pbg Q, pops just saying, but until drop 5 i'm not Q'ing but they might have, something to think about when your glorifying your faction...

I didn't state it, but I don't PvP but once in a blue moon, hence why I rolled on Entity.
 
Also, I rolled both factions. But I found the Exiles to be more pleasing aesthetically, and I'm preferring the class I rolled Exile on to the class I rolled Dominion on. I just liked the look and feel of the Exiles more, which is shocking to me, since I thought Dominion would be more my cup of tea.

			thanks for that, enjoy the game, we welcome more bodies. ;)

You should be ashamed of yourself!! Posting while at work!! None of us would ever do something like that!!  (totally just kidding :ph34r: )
 
Stop by Morning Coffee sometime! It's a nice place to kick back and talk about all things Wildstar :)

Pfft, not like I do anything anyway. I'm just a teacher :P
 
No, we have been doing achievement tests this week so I had early downtime in the day. But I will stop by Morning Coffee when I have the chance from now on. :)
 
Thanks again for the warm welcomes! This community is so welcoming to new players it's absolutely amazing!
