WoW Forever: streamers build a guild of 250

Naguura and Leon have announced a guild for WoW Forever on stream, and the size is the news: 200 to 250 members, with 40 to 50 confirmed on the night of the announcement. Maurice and Chromie are in as well. It is a streamers' project rather than an open community, and each member may bring 1 guest of their own.

It will be Horde. An internal vote came out at roughly 65% for a PvE realm over a PvP one, and the guild name is being held back until launch so that nobody else reserves it first.

The rules are deliberately light. There is no self-found or guild-found restriction, so members trade on the auction house like anyone else, streaming is optional, alts are allowed and roleplay is left to whoever wants it. The plan is a guild that plays normally and in public, not a challenge run.

The dates line up with the launch: the guild starts on 5 November, which is when WoW Forever opens in Central Europe, and at least 1 raid group intends to go in the moment the raid opens, which the guild puts at 9 December, with speed as the point. More groups and a rotating roster are being considered depending on how the class spread turns out.

This comes from the announcement stream and 1 report of it, with no Blizzard involvement, so the numbers are a plan at the moment rather than a roster.
