Everlasting Sacred Path [ESP] ~ ~ http://www.espguild.com

A True PvX Guild  • Formed in 2005  •  International Player Base  •  18+ Age Requirement  •  Tarnished Coast Influence

About Us:


ESP is a guild which formed in Guild Wars over seven years ago and we have remained steadily active ever since our inception.  After racking up numerous awards and accomplishments, including 'Guild of the Week' as recognized by Arenanet on Nov 28th, 2006, we have now jumped full-force into Guild Wars 2 where we shall coninue our legacy.

ESP is a social guild -- meaning that our primary focus is upon the people who make up our guild and the sense of community that we share in together.  We seek to explore every angle and all aspects of the game, always with the aim of having a damned good time in the process.  To help facilitate a high level of activity and interactions within our guild we organize many of our own events and encourage people to make use of our guild forums and our ventrilo server.

In Guild Wars we ran a large variety of events ranging from weekly dungeon adventure groups, scavenger hunts, PvP tournaments, as well as a number of other creative contests which we devised ourselves.  In Guild Wars 2 we aim to continue that tradition while making use of all the new possibilities that this game allows us.  As a member of this guild you are part of a team that bands together, sticks together, and offers everyone an equal voice.  In Guild Wars 2, we are looking forward to meeting some new people and adding a few fun and adventurous members to our ranks.

To summarize it all:  we are one of the longest-standing guilds in the game, we are here to stay, we are here to have fun,  (and we are here for your crumpets, pants, vodka, and platypi).


Member Requirements:


We are an 18+ Guild.  Aside from that, when we review prospective new members we look for those who are friendly, easy-going, and who have a strong willingness to interact and take part in guild activities.  We would rather have someone who will run around and laugh with us win or lose and will stick with the guild for the long term over someone who is a humorless professional at the game and plays 40-hours per week (not that some of us aren't game addicts).


Our player base is international; we have members from every continent (except for Antarctica), so people from anywhere in the world are encouraged to come find a new home with us --a home where you can find great people to interact with no matter what time zone you live in.


Joining:


If you are interested in joining ESP then you are encouraged to review our charter on our web site at http://www.espguild....ing-Sacred-Path and then submit a post telling us a little bit about yourself and how we can contact you (note that you will need to register before being able to view all content).  You are also welcome to contact us directly in game (look for Karuna or Danni in Guild Wars 2) and we will be happy to answer whatever questions you may have.

Please understand that we are careful about who we allow into the guild and we will likely want to get to know you a little bit before actually issuing an invite -- both for your benefit, to help ensure that our guild is truly fit for your needs, and also for ours to make sure that all of the new members that we bring mingle well with our current group.

I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to read this post and I look forward to seeing you all in-game!

Updating to confirm that we are still accepting GW1 Members who wish to continue to be active with us on into GW2.  

Come be a part of this amazing game with one of the longest-running guild wars communities around.

[Karuna]

I thank everyone who has been in contact with us thus far regarding our guild.  At this point in time recruiting is still open so feel welcome to come over to our site http://www.espguild.com or contact me if you have any questions.

[Karuna]

We have some big Guild Wars events coming up in April, which are posted on the original Guild Wars Guru and we still have some room to accept new members who wish to join in on the fun and continue on that path with us in GW2.


See you in game ;)

[Karuna]

Since it appears that the member cap is going to be larger in GW2 we should still have plenty of room for everyone in our two current GW Guilds plus some newcomers in our new GW2 Guild.  Therefore, applications are now open again.  Please feel welcome to pay us a visit on our forums or else contact me or an ESP Officer in game.

[Karuna]

Our recruitment status is once again back to 'Open', which means that people now have a chance to hook up with our guild.  Previously we had only been accepting recruits who wished to be active in our GW1 Guild.  However, now we are also open to accepting new members who wish to play solely in our GW2 Guild.  Head over to http://www.espguild.com to check us out and post an application.

As always, we look for friendly, mature, and fun people who wish to add their part to the ongoing legacy of this long-standing guild.

[Karuna]

The next Guild Wars 2 Open Beta Event is coming up soon and we are well established and ready to welcome new members in to the ESP family.  As mentioned before, we are now accepting GW2-only members, although if you do still play GW1 we continue to be active in that game and shall keep our GW Alliance even after the release of GW2.  All other info in the original post is still current.

[Karuna]

Original post has been updated a bit to make the information more pertinent.  We put recruiting on hold for a while but we are now able to accept new players who are interested in playing Guild Wars and/or Guild Wars 2 with us.  A note for Guild Wars 2 members, thus far we have been playing on the Henge of Denravi server for all of the beta events.  However, this may or may not end up being the server that we decide to go with at release.  New Guild Wars 2-only members are considered full members of the guild just like those who currently play Guild Wars 1 and given access to all of the features on our forums and vent server.

[Karuna]

ESP is prepped and ready for Guild Wars 2.  Are you?  We have recently decided to stick with the Henge of Denravi as our home server when the game is launched.  Recruitment is currently still open for those who would like to join in on the adventure with us.

[Karuna]

Our recruitment status for GW1 is now closed.  However, for the time being we shall continue to accept new members for Guild Wars2.  Apply on our forums at http://www.espguild.com

[Karuna]

This will be one of our last recruitment updates for a while, as we plan to either slow down, or else entirely halt recruitment after Guild Wars 2 is released.

Also, please feel free to check out our Henge of Denravi Alliance at http://celestial-enclave.espguild.com

We welcome any guilds who are interested in playing on Henge with us to open contact so we can see if we would be a good fit together.

Edited by Karuna, 16 August 2012 - 08:05 PM.

[Karuna]

You are invited to come check us out on the Henge of Denravi.  We are going to help make our home world one of the premier Guild Wars 2 Communities in the game.  We are also still open to new members -- have a look on http://www.espguild.com  or message 'Karuna' in game.

[Karuna]

I updated the original post today to better reflect the fact that our current primary focus has switched to Guild Wars 2.  For the moment, recruitment is still open.  Please feel welcome to contact me or submit a post on our forums if you would like to join or have further questions.

[Karuna]

Recruitment in ESP is now officially closed, except for close friends, family and special invites.  Thank you to everyone who has applied!

[Daichu]

Hey Karuna,

Just started to browse the guild section and saw your post.

It's "Daichu" from the GW days.

[Karuna]

We are now ready to expand a little more and are opening our doors once again to new members.  Apply online at http://www.espguild.com and/or message Karuna or Danni in game.  We are sticking with Henge of Denravi through thick and thin and welcome new transfers.  Our guild activities run the gamut from dungeon runs, to jumping puzzle nights, to SPvP to WvWvW and even some RP adventures, so we have a bit of something for everyone.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Edited by Karuna, 10 October 2012 - 11:17 PM.

[Karuna]

We are leaving this open for another week.  As always, check our forums, or look for Karuna or Danni in game if you would like more information.

[Karuna]

After much deliberation we have made the tough decision to move on to a new home.  ESP now resides on Tarnished Coast.  We look forward to participating within the TC community, making new friends and contacts, and welcoming new members who wish to be a part of the guild.  All other details regarding the guild remain the same,

Thank you all,

~Karuna

[Karuna]

Recruitment is still open.  We welcome current residents of TC as well as new transfers to or people willing to transfer to Tarnished Coast.

[Karuna]

We are still actively recruiting on Tarnished Coast.  Take a peek at http://www.espguild.com to see a bit of what we are all about.

[Karuna]

Recruitment is open.  We welcome new players and veterans alike.  Currently we have a special interest in players from outside the US and new transfers to Tarnished Coast.

[Karuna]

Recruitment is open and we are accepting current members of Tarnished Coast as well as new transfers.  Bear in mind that the deadlne for free transfers has been set for Jan 28th so if you are interested in becoming a part of the best community in Guild Wars then time is growing short!

Everyone is welcome to contact me directly with any questions regarding our guild and/or our home server.

[Karuna]

If you want the true PvX experience, a wide range of guild events, and a friendly crew to log in and play the game with then I encourage you to have a look at our guild -- http://www.espguild.com -- and feel welcome to look up any of our members.  We will be happy to chat with you.

We have an international player base that is mature (in age anyway) and extremely welcoming to people from all countries and backgrounds.  We are also very involved in the Tarnished Coast community which is sort of like an extended family.

Whether you are a current resident of TC, or someone looking to transfer over (go go now before the 28th arrives) our guild can serve as a happy home for many years to come.

[Karuna]

Currently we are searching for a WvW Commander that can help cover our 'late' hours (roughly 12am - 6am eastern time) -- especially on Friday reset nights.

Qualifications are that you must be on Tarnished Coast (obviously), reasonably competent as a commander and willing to learn how to work with us and regularly available at the times needed.

Please contact me directly if you are interested -- Karuna.1357

General recruitment is once again open in ESP.

We cater to the fun, friendly, casual player who seeks to be a part of a large family group and wishes to experience all aspects of the game (plus willing to take part in some of the guild events which we devise ourselves).

We are already on track to start the new guild bounties and will be taking a highly active part in all of the new guild missions.

All members are expected to be on Tarnished Coast as their home server.  However, we do also accept people who are willing to transfer.

Thanks all, and see you in the game,

An update on our current recruitment needs:

The Everlasting Sacred Path is a clan that is now going on 8 years old.  We have a mature member base from all around the world (currently at 270 members) and we cater to those who prefer a casual and yet competitive gaming environment.  Rather than focus on one particular aspect of the game we prefer to vary our events and experience all that GW2 has to offer.

While anyone is welcome to apply, we have a few particular needs that we would like to address:

*  Players outside of NA peak hours -- We currently have a strong NA presence within the guild and a moderate presence during European and Oceanic/Asian hours.  We would like to boost our international presence in order to have more people to help coordinate guild events during these times.  We love the diversity of our guild and wish to see it grow even further.

* Players with a strong interest in WvW -- I would not classify us as a 'hardcore WvW guild'.  However, we do have guild WvW events three nights a week and we will spontaneously form teams at other times based upon player interest.  We run well-organized groups and enjoy trying out various tactics and could always use more people who are interested in running along with us.

What we offer:

* Officers based in NA, Europe, Australia, and the Middle East
* Active and professional guild forums
* 75-slot ventrilo server
* Around the clock coverage where there is always someone to game with
* A sense of humor coupled with a desire to play well
* Guild bounties, treks, and rushes unlocked.  Getting ready to research guild challenges.

We do prefer that people apply on our forums, as we are selective in who we invite.  All interested parties are also welcome to contact me directly or our co-leader Danni.4756 and we will be happy to chat with you and answer any questions.

Thank you all, and happy gaming,

~Karuna
