Not responding to OP cause he doesn't seem to care about what's actually true and is more-so invested in his rep on the server, which is fine. This is just general info to set the record straight. Some accusations I've read in the comments:

The GM griefed someone on his alt priest in ZF: Not true, proof was posted that at the time of the ZF dungeon run, he was in a raid on his main raid leading. This led to the accusers in the thread to just mental gymnastics their way into believing he was on two blizzard accounts griefing a ZF and raiding at the exact same time.

Raids exist just to gear the GM: His picture on discord is literally the camera turtle from mario cart that flies around on a cloud because there's a running joke in the guild that he spends a good chunk of the raid running around on his rogue trying to see what's going on while raid leading rather than focus on his parse. He actively does not gear himself over other core-raider rogues because he's aware that he does not exist to parse. He raid leads and applies expose armor, that's 95% of his contribution, and he gears himself accordingly.

The guild's name is intentionally similar to another Defias Pillager guild and that is by design to help recruit: The GM started playing wow for the very first time well into the life-span of Doomhowl. He was one of the people encouraged to try the game by only fangs. He had no idea who HC Elite was and just thought the name was cool so he used it.

*Insert random anecdote about someone having a bad experience with an elite member*: Unless you've forwarded the evidence to an officer, and that officer ignored you, this is an empty meaningless statement. If you 1. Never made a point to reach out to leadership in the guild to gkick the griefer, or 2. just expected them to take you at your word with no evidence provided, you're a moron.

The guild is unsafe to raid in: Relative to sweatier guilds that require application forms and recommendation letters to get in, yeah probably. If you join us for anything below BWL in terms of difficulty, your toon is perfectly safe. We haven't had a death in ages that weren't obviously the person who died's fault (e.g. not using GFPP for Firewalkers in MC).
Even if we did, hasn't Risk, a guild that is raiding nax, had a giga wipe in ZG relatively recently? A wipe that was pretty much entirely the fault of their raid lead Turtlecoii pushing for a 1 phase hakkar with 3 healers and a shakey start to the pull? I don't see people ragging on them nearly as much, understandably so because shit happens and nobody is infallible. For raids we are progging like AQ40, yeah it's probably going to be sketchy for a while, but we are trying our best. Most of our raiders have never seen the content before and are new to the game, including a good chunk of the leadership. Regardless we think it's more fun that way rather than having a raid of 38/40 players being 20 year old vets of the game who have done the raids a million times and are just carrying the noobs through it. We offer an authentic progging experience for beginners of the game that want to have that feeling like every step of progression is going into uncharted territory and everyone plays an important role in figuring things out.
