Are you grey-haired and grumpy? Does the sight of all those youngsters racing around make you feel old and exhausted? Do you want to spend your evenings in like-minded company - those other old people who actually understand grumpiness is a comedy art-form? Do you like to play well, want to raid - but never take the game too seriously? Or do you like to amble around in your own damn time, forever levelling but wanting great chat and company while you're doing it?
Congratulations! You've found the kinship for you!
The Elders is one of the very oldest kinships on Gilrain (in every sense of the word..). We offer probably the warmest, the best and the funniest community you'll find anywhere online. We understand that real life has to come first, sometimes at short notice when it's sick kids, ferrying teens or suddenly having to work late - and no-one will ever criticise you for it. We know that the only way you can really enjoy being childish and silly is when there are no actual children around! We're not hard core. We like to raid a couple of times a week because once or twice a week is enough when you've got real life commitments to attend to. We have our own Vent server. We don't mind if you play every day or once a week. Our only entrance requirement is that you're over 25yrs of age (our average age is in the early 40s).
If you feel you want to join us, sign up (please use your main game name) and apply via the Membership Application forum.

Introducing The Elders
So who are we? We are a bunch of (mainly) older players who understand that real life issues come first in people's lives. Yes we do have fellowship runs, yes we do try to organise raids but if we don't make you laugh, don't make you feel good and feel like you're playing with a bunch of helpful, friendly mates, then we're falling down on our mission. If real life drags you away in the middle of an instance, expect to be teased unmercifully, for sure, but you won't be given a hard time about it. The Elders' leadership keeps firmly in mind that people are playing for fun & enjoyment in precious leisure time and if something is becoming hard work, then that 'something' has to change!

The Elders are an EU based kinship on the Gilrain server. We accept applications from all classes and all levels. Our only true requirement is age. The following is taken from our Kinship Charter.
"Members should be over 25yrs of age, but exceptions may occasionally be made for people who will fit in particularly well, or to take account of "real life" relationships (eg husband and wife teams). 21yrs is the minimum, however."
If you would like to join The Elders, and providing we are currently open for recruitment, please make your Application to Join here.
You should ensure that you provide as much information as possible to ensure that you are successful.
Once you've made your application please check your post regularly for updates. An Officer should be able to provide a quick decision, usually within 48 hours.
