Guild Wars 2

I’d desperately love for guild chat to be permanent, rather than map chat. When I switch alts, I’m far more likely to be in the same guild than on the same map, but guild chat is deleted, and map chat stays. Why?

I don’t understand.
I have 4 chat panels – map, combat, party & guild (all set up with different channels) – and none of those get deleted on re-log.

Mine are deleted on re-log too. My Party chat is also removed when I leave a party. I see people sometimes claiming this is “fixed” already but… if it is… not for me.

I’d also really love to see the chat stick in the window. A few times I could have used the names there to report players for kicking in the Bonus Fractal so that they could invite a Guildie, but as it stands, unless I remember to print-screen the IDs of PuGs, if I’m kicked and don’t remember names, I can’t find out.

I would guess Guild chat doesn’t stay because then the chat window would have to be tied to Guilds, and that may be difficult to program. Same with parties.

Perhaps, they are working on a way to have chat tied to different functions of the game, each window separately.
