I’ve seen many people on my server (JQ) complaining about being placed into overflow during world event spawn making them missing out in events in their own server and also Guild Mission not being able to start because some members are in overflow. Experiencing this myself as well.

Therefore, since guesting is meant mostly to “play with your friends” I would like to suggest that guesting requires an invite from a resident of a particular server before other server players could come guesting.

This is like the fourth thread on this. Why not post on one of the existing ones?

Oh, and NO. Guesting should not require friends to already exist on other servers. If I decide I want to move to a new server, how am I supposed to see what the community is like on that server unless I already know people on it?

Stop looking for new scapegoats every time you don’t get what you want. First it was magic find, now this. STOP IT.

I kinda like this idea. It keeps guesting in place for it’s intended purpose, yet drastically hinders complete free roaming.

Don’t like guests? Don’t have such a nice server to come to.

So wait when there was no one around everyone was complaining about how much of a ghost town it is and how GW2 is failing, now that there’s so many people you can’t get into the door now people are still complaining?

This.

Why not just Guest as well to some low population server, or is that too much effort?

I have this idea solved, Make it where you can guest only one time a month unless you server transfer to server you guested to. Closes loop-hole for multi jumping, Forces you to move or don’t if you do, you can check another server, but you can’t move because of the transfer wait time.

problem solved!

Good point. This would absolutely happen.

I’m not sure if Anet could even do it, but perhaps put a cap on the amount of “guests” that can be on a particular server at one time. Or maybe, to reduce the overflow problem, guests are only allowed in a certain map until it is 75% full? Anyway, just spit ballin’ here.

Or give native players to the server first dibbs. If there is a guester then they get bumped to the overflow when someone from the server arrives.
