Wow...so I checked my old guild's status on wowarmory.com (I practically live on that site btw...is that sad or what? It's pretty much facebook for your wow character). Practically half the people have left the guild and scattered into other guilds.
I heard through the grapevine that they're "merging" with another guild. They're planning on making the original guild a "levelling guild" and then when people are geared enough they'll be invited to the "raiding guild" - ie the one they're merging with, and be able to raid ICC.
I scoffed pretty hard upon hearing this. I forsee that in a month or so there just won't be anyone left in the old guild. Who wants to stick around knowing that they've been "benched", so to speak? Plus, ICC isn't just about gear. Based on what I know about the general skill level of some of the colossal idiots I used to raid with, I know some of them couldn't survive in ICC with full tier 10 gear. The huntard with the empty gem sockets and no enchants, the warrior who used to taunt off the tank for funsies, the pally who couldn't do the one task he was asked to do (dispel), the mage who liked to stand in the fire...the list goes on. Don't get me wrong, some of them were decent players, but they've already moved onto different guilds now (and are probably raiding ICC).
Oh god, I sound like an elitist jerk now. Hey, it's ok to suck at the game...as long as you're not bringing other people down with you. That's when drama starts. And NO ONE likes guild drama.
