So where are these hard cores now?

Some here, some there, some gone

Same happened in maduolan, I remember when I joined Cow eaters in 2007 I was invited into a guild and was the only one online for like 2 weeks, with the exception of one guy who gave me some gold one day.

Then suddenly i get told there was another "more hardcore" guild on the server lol, was full of people. I remember I was pissed caus my hunter was level 50 and they told me they had too much hunters and if I wanted to raid with them I had to roll something else

Well years later, and after seeing a lot of drama around me, all I can say is that if some people wanna be hardcore(5-6 raiding nights a week) they better think about their own hide and join a Chinese guild. That's what most ended up doing back then.

But the current TCW is really the hottest expat guild I've ever seen since I started on the chinese servers. PVE, PVP, special events (kudos to malice for coming up with ideas and organizing those things), over 100 lv 85 and still counting.

*bows down to malice*

TCW is the biggest foreign guild in China !
I think Mytank should add this in his recruitment post, bold it, and write it in size 24

Thanks to Mytank for his recruitment post, for Bolomas who convinced all of us, for Jason and Beri for bringing the Cow Eaters.

And thanks to all the Chinese players we met during our 6 year journey. Malice mentioned TD and 886, I'll mention:

BBBDZ, BBBMS, BBBLR, 小小白菜 and all the other members of 朝九晚五.

And then came Samish...
