Guild Wars 2

My search didn’t show anything about this so…

Hello everyone!

I feel like 500 cap for a guild isn’t enough, certainly not for my guild since people keep sending requests for invitation but we cannot invite them, because we are full. We get up to 5 requests each day and I’m feel sorry to put them on hold until a place for them comes open. I wish they add more guild upgrades to get more guild slots because 500 is not enough.

So, I thought, let’s make a sister guild! Yes good idea, but how to keep touch between two guilds. I don’t want to split my community with no direct communication. GW1 had a nice little (but big) feature -> Alliances where couple of guilds could work together and they would share one chat channel which is crucial if I want to make additional guild, but without breaking people into two parts.

So, please Arenanet, introduce alliances or at least raise the guild cap above 500. Thank you! I need this very much!

Just an opinion but a guild that size is just plain stupid. You cannot organize anything that would allow your entire guild to be a part of the same thing. You would need dozens of leaders in charge of all aspects of the game.

If you DO have 500 players, I can guarantee that they are not all active and if they are, your community is already split. It gets to a point where too many players hurts you. wait until someone gets the bright idea to start their own guild with 50 of your players and watch it crumble.

Focus on your 500 is my point. Not trying to be an kitten, but don’t suggest something so silly.

We are not international guild, we all speak same language, we do everything together, every few minutes there’s dungeon party forming up, PvP or WvW. Since the launch I’ve never been in pub party (only partially). We are not split. I like to say, we are community of its own. I want it to raise, but until Alliances are introduced or guild cap is raised, I feel limited.

And yes, we have 2 leaders and 12 officers, web portal, team speak server with 100 slots (and mumble with 500 but we dont use it), we are 7 years old guild and we do not advertise on Lion’s Arch or anything, google finds us :P…
We want to grow, but we cannot because of this issue.

+1 I agree. guilds need more support.

@Khromus just because you have not been apart of a long time running guild that has over 500 members does not mean it does not exist.

Actually there are many large gaming communities that have been around for years. some for over 10+ years.

I would like to see either alliance chat, customized chat, or raising guild member cap

Guild alliances are a must. It’s a huge fail on ANET’s part for not thinking of this initially.
