The only LS that i really cared about

The problem with these guilds is that the leader seemingly has to stay on and do things actively otherwise people have trouble mingling with others and then stop doing stuff. This however is less of an issue when theres so many new people around. If a guild gets too big too fast then people will separate themselves into cliques of sorts, where they will only unify for raids and other big group stuff.

So on how i feel about getting just ANYONE on EoFF, don't do it. Its not worth it and in the end has a possible factor of undoing the guild to begin with. Just get those interested here, and foster a nice group thats willing to help newbs get to where they need to be. Don't force it, just go in with a general fun goal and everything else will fall into place. Once everyone is high enough or starting to get to max level proficiencies, they should have a more intimate bond with one another so you can focus on end-game activities.

The reason i say focus on end-game is because if not, they will probably find some group that will. And wouldn't you guys want to do them as well? Those that grew up with you in the game tend to stay with, and i personally would like people that i know to do end-game with than be forced to recruit strangers by the handful.

This is just my opinion though throughout my FFXI experience leading and doing LS related stuff...i could be wrong though since FFXIV is a new game altogether
