Guild Wars 2

I know somebody is going to say “just use the guild message of the day [MOTD]” to what I am about to say. So, let me start out by pointing out that: not only is the guild MOTD rather limited in how many characters you can use compared to a “mail message” but I must also add that almost nobody reads it! I know almost nobody reads it because my guild MOTD contains the connection info for our guild VOIP server, yet EVERYONE ALWAYS asks for it >.< Okay, so, moving on.

I decided to make some major guild changes to a guild I run, and I composed a ‘letter’ to copy/paste from outside of the game as to not have to manually type it a few hundred times! I quickly noticed that even doing it this way, not only is it tedious, the game limits how many messages you can send in a certain period of time. I tried to start sending this out as fast as I could and started getting the “Your message was suppressed due to excessive messaging” error >.<

So what I would like to suggest, if not outright request, would be a “guild mailer” function for the game… A button with the function of writing/composing ONE message to be sent as in game mail to all guild members (regardless of whether they’re representing or not). At the very least, have the functionality be available to the leader, or even added as an ability that can be added/removed from ranks so that we could make it so that officers could also send a mail to the entire guild as well.

Well, for the time being, back to manually sending off these TONS of messages, one per minute (yay, now I have about 200 minutes to look forward to doing this) >.<
