The Creaky Knees

Old enough to know better. Still queueing for Warsong.

A warm, loud and slightly creaky guild of 40-somethings. We tuck in the kids, pour a coffee and go and ruin some Horde player's evening.

What we're about

Three things we take seriously

✦
🍺

The company

Grown-ups with jobs, families and opinions. Nobody gets yelled at for a wipe. Somebody will get teased for it, though.

⚔️

The PvP

We picked a PvP realm on purpose. World PvP, battlegrounds, defending Southshore and the occasional ill-advised raid on Crossroads.

🛡️

The realm

We're not a roleplay guild, but we live on an RP realm and act like it. Proper names, decent manners, no shouting "lol" in Goldshire.

A typical evening

Bedtime stories first. Then the Barrens.

We play at hours that work for people with lives: most activity is after 20:00 CET on weekdays and a bit more freely at weekends.

If your kid needs a glass of water mid-pull, we wait. If you need to stand up because your back locked up, we wait. If you go AFK to argue about the dishwasher, we will absolutely bring it up later.

See the weekly rhythm →
  • Age: mostly 40+. Younger is fine if you can handle dad jokes.
  • Language: English in guild chat and on Discord.
  • Pace: relaxed levelling, serious PvP.
  • Raiding: yes, at civilised hours.
  • Drama: we are too old and too tired.

We have a name (sort of), a banner (sort of) and a very firm plan to stand in Southshore and cause trouble.

Names matter (yes, really)

We're not a roleplay guild, but we live on an RP realm. Here's the short version of how to pick a name that won't get you reported.

There's always room by the fire

Bring your main, your alts, your old guildmates and your bad knee.
