About Us
The Church is an Alliance guild on the Darkspear server. We love the game of Warcraft, but treat it as a game, not a profession. We recognize that our members have real life obligations, pursuits, friends and loved ones that we need to make time for. For that reason our raid schedules are less demanding than those of most guilds and we do not require nor reward more than 3 nights of raiding per week.
Our Raid Schedule is as follows: Mon & Wed: 8-11.30pm Server. Sun: 7.30-11.30 Server.
Because of our limited raid time, we place a strong emphasis on the quality of our members. Church members must exhibit a thorough understanding of their class and how to use it to the benefit of their groups. We like people who can work well with others in stressful situations, who can analyze challenges and offer solutions while accepting the ideas of others. And above all, we look for members who have that rare, but treasured combination of fun-loving maturity. We have no tolerance for drama or loot whores.
Ah, yes, loot. The Church has a rather unorthodox loot system. We don't use dkp, as we feel it slows down raids, makes people feel compelled to raid more than 3 nights a week, and inevitably creates tension between people trying to outbid each other. Instead, we use a combination of raid leader discretion, raiding ranks based on attendance and performance, and /rolls (yes, rolls). The reason this works for us is because most of us have been playing together for a long time, and have built a strong sense of trust between members. Let us be clear upfront--if you have ever thrown a fit over DKP or quit a guild because you didn't receive an item you wanted, you would NOT be happy here.
This message sounds stuffy. As you may discover from interacting with us, the Church is not stuffy at all. If I had to compare our guild to anything, I'd say the Church is like a club basketball team. During game time (raid time) we will put the best prepared players on the court and play with intensity while the others work to improve their game. But when game time is over we love to kid around and make asses of ourselves.....because it's fun. 
Thanks for stopping by, and we look forward to seeing you in game. Heathens.
