Automated messages to guild
? (obviously I wouldn’t spam it, maybe once every 2 or 3 hours on the day that the event is on, and every 5 hours on days that it’s not.) Cheers in advance for the help!
that’s declared as spam and I would report you if you send me a mail every 2-4 hours a day. look at the ToS I think 3rd party programs are not allowed but I might be wrong. Make a website, forum or calendar for your guild, have your members sign up and announce the events there. Much easier to gather your guild members and gives em a platform to communicate when they are unable to log into the game itself.

Oh no no no, don’t get me wrong. I’d be sending it in Guild Chat rather than mail. I tend to do it anyway, but without a third party program. The program would just make my job easier. It’s a relatively small guild of 130-something. I do play Guild wars from time to time, but if I had a second account running this on my laptop just to make my job easier, it’d be great. It’d also mean not having to stop what I’m doing at the time and I’d probably check with my guild to make sure it’s alright with the majority of them.
Personally I’d stay on the safe side and use external means of communication, there are plenty of them around.
What absolutely amazes me is that a game with ‘guild’ in its title has so few tools for guilds to communicate with their members. All there is, apart from the normal guild chat, is a mail system that temporarily bans you if you try to use it!
lunawisp was my peacebringer on City of Heroes – she lives on in memory as my gaming id.

Agreed, even if I had to send a message to all guild members, I’d have to do it one at a time, getting blocked every 2 mail
