This is very annoying and rude, if your guild invite is declined do not spam!!! Personally I do not find the multiple guild membership necessary, it is counter-productive when forming in-game friendships and attempting to establish an experienced group to run with.

cheers

I agree. I ended up creating my own guild just to have a useless guildname in my ID plate to stop the incessant spam. Seems to have worked so far, but really there needs to be a way to block guild invite spam.

There’s one guild on Devona’s Rest in particular [RAIN] that keeps spamming both me AND my guild mate who are ALWAYS repped to my guild with invites. It’s not like they’re spamming people who don’t have guilds (which is still annoying) but they’re legitimately trying to steal people from other guilds without even saying a word, just spamming their guild with a lot of people and influence in an attempt to impress others. I’ve personally been getting an invite from the guild once every other day at least and know guild mates getting the same and I’ve asked the guild leader politely to please stop sending them to members of my guild but he didn’t even aknowledge my messages or reply. (And of course it still continued to happen.)

Please Anet give us a way to block this.

I suppose this could be considered spam or harassment, if they refuse to stop after you explicitly asked them to.

use it.

also, the 8th wonder of the world: the ignore feature.

Do this. I did it. Since I run around representing my pointless guild I haven’t gotten a single invite (unless I asked). Over time you’ll also build up influence you can use towards guild storage, aka more bank space.

Although blocking invites would be nice, it’s really counter-productive in a game you’re supposed to be social in. If possible, I think an invite limit per account would be acceptable. By that I mean if you reject a guild invitation let’s say 2 or 3 times, they can’t invite you again for 24 hrs (example).

I found it hard enough to find a guild. I welcome when I get invited by a guild.

So, your saying I need to ignore every person from a given guild, so none of them can send a guild invite? Really???

I like your idea about the invite limit, a least someone else is offering ideas. However, I would not say it’s counter-productive to the game when so many guilds will not even send you a whisper or message asking you to join. They don’t initiate even the first step in being social. There are guilds out there that don’t chat nor help their guild-mates.

Cheers and thx for your input!
