For me it is to get to see more regarding instances and raids, seeing as I missed out on a lot of them back in the vanilla days (you could usually spot me in the battlegrounds..). Aside from that, I hope I will be able to enjoy some good ol' RP sessions again!
Will not be a hardcore raider though, but I think I got plenty of time the coming years to gear up and slowly get through the content that Vanilla has to offer. ;-)
I've always enjoyed being somebody that will help people out. It's pretty rewarding.
My more immediate goal is to make some cool videos along the journey and for my guild, I've already upgraded my pc and learned to use the software I'll need for this endeavour. I'm also re-rolling the class I mained on ND instead of trying a new one so I can really git-gud and push the class to it's limits, this also ties into my first point as I can help others git-gud.
*eye of the tiger intensifies*
Raiding would be nice, not that fussed on the gear I want to experience the content with a good group of people.
My goal is to get exalted with all Alliance races and roll around on unconventional mounts for my chosen race.
That’s it... I haven’t really thought of anything else.
I will try to get 1-2 characters to 60 and I'll see where flow brings me.
In Vanilla WoW I cleared everything except AQ40 and Naxxramas. I was in a casual progression guild.
My PvP rank was rank 9 iirc.
I prefer having fun with a good group of people, tagging along wherever and whenever I can. Clearing some content and doing some (world) PvP. Looking forward to it at least.
My biggest goal is to get this Shen'dralar reputation up! To this day I hate when I open my reputation tab, scroll down just to see this one disgusting bar that is not maxed - sad moment. I don't even know why I didn't do this back in the day....
Overall, just try not to be the better and faster than my friends. I think this is what took a lot of the fun out on private servers for me.
My goal is to build the best possible guild I can for the hardcore raider types who enjoy being a part of a great community. My goal is to build and develop my team of raiders as best I can and hopefully farm naxx to exhaustion with at least 50% of the same raid team that I start with.
I'd rather start with a team of C- or B- level players and develop them into an A team and clear all the content than start with a team of A players and be the among the first players to clear the 14 year old content.
We are almost certainly going to be successful based on our membership and my past experience, but success to us is being on a team we want to play with and talk to outside of game. Many of us have now met in real life, and I have friends I first met in retail vanilla that I still talk to today.
I'm not disparaging the guilds that want to clear Ragnaros during week one or the guilds who try to pull the highest possible parses on logs or clear dungeons in the absolutely fastest way. Those are perfectly fine games/goals and are an entirely different game. Those goals are just not mine or my guilds in any event. :)
Anyway, I only play vanilla wow for the leadership/guild building game and I can't get into it when I'm not running a guild, so I know my goals are arguably different from most players :)
Building guild members from a 'C or B level' will be healthy for your guild's morale and permanence as well. These people will have a much larger emotional investment in your guild having seen themselves improve after all the guild's assistance over time, and having seen the guild itself progress. Best way to do it I think!
Any guild leader asking for 'A level' players only will have to struggle with those players joining and then leaving on a whim to pursue greener grass.
I'd like to at least kill C'thuun, I really want the Azuresong Mageblade (because I passed on it before b/c I was raid leading and didn't want to look like I abused loot council), and I want to level an alt that is a funky spec that can do something really well that people will remember and talk to their guildies about.

I don't have the time to play like I did during the initial release, when I was in a progressive raiding guild; my goals are to level to 60 in my own time, ideally taking professions that I find fun rather than grinding/levelling professions, and pushing what content can be solo'd.
I'm fully aware that I am highly unlikely to get to raiding for some years due to RL, but I'd like to gently try to get the T0 and T0.5 sets and go from there. Other than that, I'm a keen explorer and want to see every inch of the world over time, and probably try to do every quest as well. I just hope there's a quest tracker addon to help me!
I would love to get Rank 10 for all the blue PvP gear, but I don't think I'll have the time or patience. I think I got to rank 6 or 7 in vanilla. Realistically I would love to just deck myself out in a good set of feral dps/tanking gear, a nice off-set healing gear and get some PvP and maybe casual raiding done.
I am happy to just do 5 mans and BGs and level alts and chill with friends mostly. It's a great big Azeroth out there, and there is plenty to see and do.
