The biggest problem for me in World of Warcraft has been finding good people to group with. I've been in a couple of guilds, but they always had too few members, so I was still reduced to using pickup groups. And the bigger guilds generally seem to be too hardcore. I was thinking the other day how it would be great if I knew a bunch of people who might be interested in forming a guild, and then it hit me -- I do! Well, I may not know you all, but at least I know that we share some common interests, namely the Mac and MacNN.

My plan was this: we choose a low population PvE server and everybody who wants to join would start fresh with a new character there. This way we can all start from an even playing field. We would use our MacNN names for the characters (or as close as possible) so we can connect the characters to the people on the board. The guild chat could be a sort of extension of the MacNN forums, where we talk about Mac-related news and so forth in addition to game topics. Sound fun?

If anyone is interested in this idea, post to this thread, and also vote on whether we should be Horde or Alliance. Please don't vote if you're not going to play. I would also be interested to hear suggestions for guild names. We could use something simple like "MacNN" or something more poetic incorporating the word "Apple" etc.

If there is sufficient interest, I will go ahead and create the guild and then post info on how people can join.

(By the way, I'm posting this here instead of in the Gaming forum because I think a lot of people who might be interested in this do not frequent that forum, and in any case the guild would not be limited to people playing on Macs.)

I would be interested if I had better eyesight. My eye hand coordination is all off. This venture sounds like a lot of fun. Hope that you will be successful.

I know most people will already have characters that they're attached to (I have a lvl 60 priest and several other semi-high-level characters on the Silvermoon server), but if anyone is interested in making some alts, I think this would be a good opportunity. Anyone?

This same sentiment sparked the creation of the Reservoir Dogcows back when beta opened, and we're still going strong:

I would, but i'm on the EU servers

[JoshuaZ]

I would, but that would mean I'd have to start playing....

[juanvaldes]

lol sounds like you want to hook up with the dogcows Looks like they have their **** together.

Do Horde btw, much cooler

[starman]

Dogcows are Alliance, not Horde. I think there was a Horde version but nobody plays it anymore.

Don't you have to ask for permission to use the name "MacNN"?
