I was reading the “changes to mega server system” post and it got me thinking… Is there any potential of a “merge guilds” feature?
For example, I’ve been part of two or three guilds that have reduced in numbers due to player inactivity, people switching to other guilds, not repping, etc. Each one has basically been a case of two small guilds where all the players from the smaller of the two move over/stop repping. I noticed there’s no way to “disband a guild” (or if there is it’s not obvious to me )

IDK if other players would be interested, but I always thought it would be nice to have two leaders decide “Hey let’s join up!” and merge; the logistics of which looked complicated… until now. The same methods that are being used to merge multi-world guilds could be employed here! just add in moving all players from one roster into the other (if there’s not enough roster room throw up a flag “The selected guild is too full” or whatever and block the merge).

Quite agree. Being able to merge guilds would allow more guilds to combine and create a better playing experience for all.

I still would like to have alliance (alot of guilds into a big ’ally’ group) system back into GW2 again..

an alliance system with maybe 1, max 2 guilds would be interesting, usually a merge is done by players from one guild simply moving to the other and leaving that guild dormant and unused, but a way to actually combine them, influence, upgrades etc would be helpful to a lot of small guilds.

I say what needs to be said, get used to it.

Why only two guilds in an alliance? There was a max of 10 in GW. A max of 2 small guilds in GW2 might end up with 4 or 5 or even just 10 people in the alliance.

I only say 2 because of the 500 person limit for guilds in gw2, as opposed to the 100 in gw1, if it were 10, you could have 5000 people in an alliance, that sounds…cumbersome? to say the least

Cumbersome in what way? Chat? I doubt there would every be 5000 people online at once and chatting, but I suppose it is possible.

There are probably more small to mid-sized guilds than max capacity guilds, though. Larger guilds have already been the recipients of some features that the smaller guilds weren’t able to take advantage of so much. I would hope alliances were larger than 1 guild (because how would it be an alliance with only 1 guild in it?) or 2 guilds.
