How many raids does it take to go from "applicant" to "member" so that you can earn and spend dkp with no strings attached?
It isn't a number of raids. It is 3 weeks (In Awakened, anyway) before you are voted on.

Whats the minimum number of raids you must attend in that time to be voted on? I'm sure someone cant just apply, come twice, hide out for three weeks, then get voted on if people think they are cool? Whats the cutoff?

Loots are opening up to certs shortly. They are working on it as a guild policy. They will be second mains, but there is still a lot of actual mains that need gear, so it was definitely going to be a process to getting to second mains.

Cec paints a pretty drab picture of officers, which I can understand coming from her previous guilds. We haven't had any issues over the four years I have been in Taken then Awakened with this loot system. Bid to win and you can. No class is exempt. You want a slow trident on your rogue, bid to win. You want a mana item on your sk, bid to win.

DKP is by far the best system for loot. Our blind bids allow for some colossal wastes, which I am often one of the wasters...but I get to bid on what I want.

That being said, getting back to the OP, yes you will likely, no matter where you end up, have to raid for some significant time to get top tier items.

No I paint a pretty drab picture of your officers, since those are the ones I've encounters recently. Gotta tell you. Watching your leadership try to kill and escape from VP is a real thing of beauty. I haven't laughed that hard in awhile. These guys kill million hp mobs.

As far as no issues with loot. That slow trident which a rogue won got him slut shamed for the better part of a week from a huge number of people in the guild and in general made him feel shit for spending his DKP on what he wanted. That is the point when your application to be my guild was denied. I was sticking around for a Baton of Flames for my ranger.

This is hilarious, but we have a no drama policy in guild, so walking away from the thread before I get dkp docked. Good luck in your adventures Cec.

This thread is a real eye opener to me. You guys police speech to such a degree that you dock DKP for giving/refuting information about the guilds dkp system in a thread designed for such debate?

Zero items while in app status is pretty common. You could have bought any but four items this week with 850 dkp in our guild as a full member.
47 raids without earning even the chance of bidding on loot is common? Thats incredible. There's only 21 days in the three week app period, thats a raid attendance of more than 2 per day average.

App's have plenty of chances to bid on loot - Cecily is well geared so the stuff she would like to bid on, applicants do not get to bid in the first tier.

We recently opened up everything from Kunark to any character you have tagged on the roster, this includes recruits's DKP as well. Its not the best stuff in the world, but Trak/VS/PoF Golems still do have some cool stuff and for less than 30 DKP you can pick up most of it which basically causes the raid to nearly hand you loot and DKP just for attending.
