I'm fairly new to AO, only a couple weeks, and this is my first time playing any MMORPG. As a result I know nothing about guilds and clans and my main question is what are the benefits/drawbacks of a guild? Also, I've seen that many guilds list themselves as role-playing guilds. How do these differ from 'normal ' guilds?
I'm interested in joining, so anyone looking for a lvl 18 Adventurer or a very low-level enforcer, please post.
