The last time I posted this it was sent to the Archive with the rest of the Suggestion section of the forums….so, I’m reposting hoping it will spark more interest and maybe be put into the game at some point.

“As someone in leadership of a ~300 member guild, trying to send mail in mass bulk is such a pain with 2 being the limit. I totally understand having the limit for gold sellers! I really do….but they just moved to using whispers so that is a pretty invalid reason anymore.
However, is there not a way to add in a “guild mail”? It could be a permission in the “rank” settings to be allowed to send mass mailing to only those in your guild. Another, if the mail is sent to those in the guild, it allows no excessive mailing until those outside of the guild are sent mail.
The guild I’m in has many parties and we use mail in giving roles for some party games and sending out inactivity warnings to members. By only being able to send 2 mails at a time, when the parties involve a game where roles are sent, it takes 30 minutes to set up.
On Tarnished Coast specifically, I know there are several guilds who have games and guild events set up such as this with using mail to send roles or instructions. This would be great for the Role Play community as well to send announcements or instructions for their story. Yes, the message of the day can help, but most guilds (that I know) use the message of the day for what is happening..that day gasp and then guild information such as the mumble or ventrilo or teamspeak information.
Sending out inactivity mail (I’m the one to does this usually) sets aside 1-2 hours for the 1 warning mail (being turned to the “danger” rank) and the 2nd warning mail (you’re being kicked) for each month.
Even upping the number to 5 mails before excessive hits would be a great change. I’m more in favor of “guild mail” though.”

What I was going to say to bump this was a plea to have guild mail again or be able to “cc” or send the same thing to more than one person. Obviously the five item boxes at the bottom would need grayed out for that option, but it would be a lot easier say if a member as a problem and can send a mail to several people in leadership saying what happened than telling one person and hoping the telephone game doesn’t happen.
