Another Drupal based WoW Guild website

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Hey folks,

I very recently migrated our website from GuildPortal to our own host (iPage). We opted for Drupal 6 as our CMS in developing the site. You can take a look here: www.twcgaming.org

This group was quite a bit of help in terms of getting some raw ideas on how to approach some of the challenges. I wanted to post and contribute our final design as well.

The site incorporates wowguild, wowcharpane and Lootz modules as well. Big props to the authors for those.

Enjoy!

Wow! It's a very nice site. Grats on beating Putricide ( I think I spelled that right ) anyway,
Guild portal? it's decent, wordpress would have been a better first choice.
I see the wowguild and modules, they look nice in action. so hey, what's the requirement to join
twcgaming? lol, just wondering.

GuildPortal is abysmal. We

GuildPortal is abysmal. We had bad experiences with it. All GP sites look the same, and their service isn't great either.

WordPress is mostly a publishing/blogging platform. I've seen some good examples of it used outside its intended purpose, but getting a full guild community functionality from it takes vBulletin, PhpBB or some other external forum integration I think. Drupal's core structure was more suitable for our needs so we went with that instead. Besides, Drupal's modularity is fantastic and the Drupal community itself is extremely active/helpful. The latter, more than anything, is Drupal's selling point imo.

And on a side note, we're not recruiting for the guild at the moment. The front page has a recruitment list, as you can see, and all classes are closed in there. ;)
