Introduction
The Eternal Watch was created to provide a family atmosphere for general game play with a primary focus on end-game content and raiding progression, whether that be PVE or PVP grouping. We hold our members to a standardized set of behavior guidelines, asking members to abide to our Code of Conduct. Those not following these guidelines are subject to discipline and possible removal from the guild.
The guild Code can be summed up in one sentence: Don't be an ass and treat your guild mates with respect and courtesy...and most of all have fun!
History
The guild was founded in 1999 in Asheron's Call, eventually traversing the worlds of Asheron's Call 2, Lineage 2, Aion, Age of Conan, World of Warcraft, Rift, Star Wars the Old Republic, TERA, and recently Guild Wars 2 and Neverwinter. Now the guild is branching into The Elder Scrolls Online saga beneath the standard of Queen Ayrenn and the Aldmeri Dominion.
The guild has been run by the same guild leader--Mithoron--for the entire fifteen years, so has a solid history of being maintained, supported, and promoted through its long history. It is not simply a "fly-by-night" guild created on a whim or an idea that "sounds cool" and just as quickly abandoned. Instead, the guild has over a decade track record of being the best it can in endgame content.
During it's World of Warcraft tenure of over six years, the guild was ranked among the top raiding guilds on the Icecrown server, while still maintaining a "friends and family" atmosphere where spouses, children, other family members, and friends could play and enjoy the game even outside the stringent confines of raiding.
Guild Participation
The guild holds many events, both within game and without, focusing upon its primary goal of everybody having fun. Feel free to join us for in game events such as PVP raiding, foot races, scavenger hunts, and the like, as well as out-of-game events including Movie Nights, Karaoke Nights, and Trivia Contests.
The guild does not require any mandatory participation in guild events; however, if you do participate, it is expected you give your 110% effort, whether it entails raiding or PVP'ing with the guild or participating in some of it's other events.
Tenets
The guild is based upon the concept that it is a community of people with different mindsets and goals, and as such does not attempt to force people into any one particular aspect of the game. We are not simply a "raiding guild," nor are we canned as "PVP guild"--there are both casual and hardcore members; there are those interested in pure PVE play, while others are more PVP-oriented. What the guild does promote is a healthy atmosphere with people of like mind who enjoy the game can do so with companions to its fullest.
Requirements
The guild does not enforce any age requirements. We have met 12-year-olds who were more mature than some 30-year-olds. Age does not dictate maturity. We simply ask that you behave in a mature manner acceptable to everybody.
We strongly suggest members avoid Political, Religious and Sexual topics in both Guild and Ventrilo Chat, as these topics are too emotional and problems always result. In addition, being a more mature group of players, realize cussing and other profanity is not routinely acceptable--many members have younger family members playing or listening to the game. If you cannot state the same thing to your parents or at a job interview, chances are it is not going to be tolerated in guild/Ventrilo chat. That being said, we realize raids--and in particular PVP--can sometimes be heated, and we ourselves are guilty of an occasional slip, we simply ask that you do not make cussing commonplace, instead keeping such things in the PVP channels or private conversations.
In addition, we ask people refrain from "1337" sp3ak. If you cannot type out a word intelligently to convey your feelings or information, then maybe the guild is not for you.
Beyond those simple tenets, as mentioned, don't be an ass and have fun!

Comments
If my wife and I choose Aldmeri Dominion, I'll definitely look you all up. Ultimately, it's going to be my wife's choice which alliance we join. I'll definitely pitch this guild to her.
Anyway, nice write up. If we don't join the Dominion, I'll see you on the battle field!
Definitely check out our website and get a feel for us. We have several married couples who play together, as well as a few families and such, so your situation is not uncommon.
Good luck in your search!
