When you drop into a guild that has 40/50 or more and says that they use line or discord. The first thing you should do is say hello and ask for contact info. We are at 49/50 looking for someone decent and we keep getting scrubs who don't say anything. Do yourself a favor and say something. Even if your roster isn't up to par we might let you stick around just based on the fact you actually reached out right away.

And I'm recruiting for mine
I really feel your pain with recruiting... Silent Mol Eliza after silent Mol Eliza...
This is probably more of a rant than actual advice lol
Minors can't see the guild description. If you don't want to "waste time" with that, then make your guild invite only and recruit on the forums.
Well aware of how it all works. I've found that invite only causes you to miss out on decent players. I don't mind weeding out the minors but in my experience it's mostly just lazy people bouncing from Guild to guild. They already know that they aren't qualified for our guild.
Then again it's really not their fault. There are just some people that aren't into multi player games no matter what form it's in. I myself was a former solo only player, content to progress at my own pace. When guilds were announced I figured I had a 50/50 shot I'd still be playing much longer since there's really no way to progress anymore if you can't get raid gear.
Once I created a guild and got to know some other members though, it turned out to be a really enjoyable change. However I think that's a big part of being a guild leader. I have to interact with the other guild members or lose my guild. Any typical member though has a choice to join a guild, make some tickets and just sit back and collect gear. They essentially still get to play solo. It's frustrating, but aside from being diligent and kicking the ones that don't meet your guilds criteria what are you gonna do?
You may be aware. But @Saetet, who I quoted and was responding to, complained about minors joining up despite what the guild description says, which reads to me as Saetet not being aware of the fact that minors can't read the guild description.
@Saetet
Never once have I done a silent fart in chat. Under the covers where I can blame the dog, you better believe it.
She's aware. .
Also don't be a **** - always donate to your peers. I'm sure they appreciate the help as much as you do when you get the gear you really need.
I remember my old guild was like the mute guild. Nobody ever spoke, not even the leader. It was pitiful.
