Guild Wars 2

A lot of players (like me) have multiple Guilds. We love the way the guild system works, letting you switch between them on the go, or per character.

I, for one, would really like to be able to keep track of what’s going on in my different guilds ALL the time.

Say I have a small guild of friends who are only on during a certain time of day, and a larger guild I belong to when those friends aren’t playing. I would like to be able to play with my friends and still communicate with my other guild’s guildies.

Inversely, when half the people who are online in my main guild are repping some other guild, I would still like to be able to communicate with them without having to pm each one.

An option to see (and even talk) to guilds I’m not currently representing would be very nice. I DON’T think it should be available to everyone, but should be added to the guild permissions. That way guild leaders could decide for themselves whether they want their members to participate in guild chat without representing, or only allow commander’s to do so, etc.

Some guilds don’t like multi-guilding, while some guilds actively allow it. Being able to set this in permissions would be preferred.

Then allow individuals to set in their chat panel “Other Guilds” or “Secondary Guild Chat” or some such. Guild chat from guilds you are not currently representing would then appear as a different color and be preceded by that guild’s tag.

Even if I had to represent that guild to be able to reply, that would still be a welcome improvement.
“Ah, no one is on in X guild, but Y guild is getting a group together for WvW, I’ll switch over and join them.”

This would go along way to improving a slowly developing Multi-Guild community.

As I said, making it a guild permission would allow the old mindset, stickler Guilds, to keep their Permanent rep requirement in check, but would offer up even more freedom to those of us who enjoy access to varied communities.

yuck, multi-guild should be removed ASAP, its a disaster.
