Note: ''I have seen a few ask in game or on other areas of how to join a Guild. This is what inspired this guide.''

How to Join a Guild
Before a Guild When you join the game, you will see this in your chat bar. (First image on the right) If you press the letter G (Make sure chat is not active) or click on Menu and scroll up to hit the Guild word. You will see this on your screen. (Second image on the right) (You shouldn't have any problems finding the guild menu). Close that out. Now, the fun thing to do is to find a guild that you would enjoy. There are guides as to how to create a guild, but we're looking for one to join. Finding a guild Some may advertise their guilds with either their tag or name in front and some of what they do. Some of that may be "strange" to you. Here are what some of the "shortcuts" mean.
 * Kurz is for Kurzick
 * Lux is for Luxon
 * SC is for Speed Clears (Any initicals before sc. might be for a dungeon or explorable)
 * DoA is for Domain of Anguish (it's where you get Tormented weapons)
 * UW is for Underworld
 * FoW is for Fissure of Woe
 * HoM is for Hall of Monuments for Guild Wars 2
 * FA is for Fort Aspinwood
 * JQ is for Jade Quarry
 * AB is for Alliance Battles
 * HzH is for House of Zu Heltzer

Now that we have most of the shortcuts and their meaning, let's go forth from there. If you find a guild that interests you, then message the person and ask to get the Leader or an Officer to add you. Joining the Guild The chat log will give "You received a guild invitation from *Name* to join *Guild Name*." Now, If you change characters or had to reload the game, etc. and you have not "accepted". The chat log will show, "You have 1 guild invitation." You can have more than one guild invitation, but you can only join one guild. To join the Guild, click on the menu then to guild or hit the letter G (make sure your chat is not active when you hit the letter, else it won't work.) You will see the invite in your guild menu. If you wish to join, click on Accept Invite. (An example is the third image on the right.) After that, you should be in your new guild!

Hope this guide has helped you.

Enjoy the game!
