Guild Wars 2

As a guild leader of a moderate sized guild there are some things that are absolutely bugging me to no end with the current guild system.

1) The MOTD is terrible! For one, when you edit it you have to completely start from scratch and there is no copy/paste function…why can’t I just edit what is already there? And why is the text area so small!?

Also, something that is equally important is the actual MOTD notification. When you log in the full MOTD should display in your guild chat immediately so that you can stay up to date with guild current events.

2) Guild banners/buffs do not display you guilds name. Why do the guild banners not display your guilds FULL NAME when interacted with, only the tag?

3) Claimed forts in WvW need to promote your guild! Please Arena Net, make the banners or SOMETHING in the fort interactable (much like the buff banners) so that players can see what is in control of the fort. Also, please make it so that when you hover over a fort on the map it displays the guild name who has claimed that objective.

I cannot stress enough just how hard it is to PROMOTE your guild, especially when combined with the problem of guild swapping with the guild representation system.

Please Arena Net, start working on this!

I agree. The text box for MotD is small.

I would also like to see an area to add a permanent message above the MotD. Many of us have Ventrilo, Team Speak, or Mumble servers. We don’t want to repeatedly insert that information in the MotD. To have an area where we can place a static message would be extremely helpful.

I like these ideas. The MOTD thing kinda bugs me, because no one ever reads it.

Bump…………………..

Totally agree with the MOTD, I had to put the msg on a sticky on my desktop and tab in and out to get to it every time I want to edit the guild msg.

For a game named GUILD wars…. the guild functions really could use some improvement >_>
