Zender! So glad to see your post. =-) The Azure Guard on live took a huge hit when WoW came out also, was tragic.
You'll want to try and get 3 groupings with an officer. Raids, hanging out in EC, farming camps together, and exping are all ways to get one of those groupings. Ask a guildy if an officer is around and they will point you in the right direction.
Hope to see you in game soon!
