The Hunter's Mark has an interesting post regarding making the transition from casual to hardcode raiding for if you decide that you have enough of PuGs or your casual guild and want something a bit more hardcore. Although aimed at WoW the ideas and concepts are true for all the other games that also have a similar raiding system.

The guide starts off with the important point of checking that your current guild doesn't already have plans for that already, not burning your bridges with your current guild leadership because that may well be asked what you are like by your new guild and then where to go to actually find your new guild. It follows up with actually getting onto your guilds raids if they use DKP or a system like EPGP, how to be prepared through doing your homework and finally how to keep that spot when you get it so that you can continue raiding.

I was often the guru- of making the change, amongst many servers, I was usually if not always on top of the progression chart on the alliance side.

I tutored and broke in many a gamer to the hardcore raiding systems that I was using at the time, and extradited many more for not making the cut.

It is not an easy process, its not like completing a series of quests, its social interaction, and management, much like a job.

If you want some tips or information, even though I recently quit I would be willing to answer some questions reguarding ethics, common knowledge, and management of guilds and raids in world of warcraft.
