Let me preface this by saying that I have nothing against Guilds or raiding. It is just not something that I am interested in or have the time to invest. The problem is that as a level 70 unguilded player, when I walk into a City like Ironforge, I am accosted with invitations to join a Guild. It gets annoying after a while. I'll be at the auction house or bank doing my thing and I'll see the Guild invite message just pop up out of nowhere! This is something I'll never understand. Why would you invite someone you don't know and have never even grouped with into your Guild? I would think you would want to make sure the person would fit in with the rest of your guild mates before you sent an invitation? It's not so bad when someone sends me a tell and when I politely decline, they leave me alone. However, I have had some people that just won't take no for an answer. One person even offered me gold to join!!!I think an easy fix for this dilemma is to lower the requirements for forming a guild. If Jim and I could just make our own guild, it would probably eliminate all unsolicited guild invites. Maybe there is some database or other server related reason for not reducing the requirements to start a Guild, but it would be really nice if Blizzard would do so.

I have the same problem, and I often wish that the requirements to start a guild were a bit lower. Although I'm pretty close to trying to form my own guild anyway -- difficulty be d*mned! I see other people paying small amounts of gold for signatures to get started -- maybe I could do that. It feels a bit dirty, but ... *shrug*
I have often thought of trying to find people to sign a guild charter for me as well. The only thing is whether once the guild is formed, do the people who signed the charter have to remain in the guild? Also, do I have to keep a minimum number of guild members to keep the guild alive? Another concern I have is how best to ask people to sign. I guess sitting in a major city and posting in the Guild Recruitment Channel would be appropriate?
