I'd probably go back and give them another chance. The guild I attend has about 50 folks each time, but not all the same ones. About 25 regulars are there each time. I joined not knowing anyone in the group and it honestly took about 6 visits to build some friendships there. They are all very nice, but they get caught up in the topic of the night, the business on the agenda, and catching up on mutual friends. I haven't been able to attend much since I've been doing the Austin/Lubbock split. It's one of the things I'm looking forward to most about being home full time again in a few months. I attend an evening guild when I'm there, but I think I'm going to check out the one that meets during the day also.
