Guild Wars 2

Got these both guild upgrades and I already regret using gold and effort for the materials.

First issue – Guild portal:
It spawned on top of the fountain I scribed, on the area I had decorated to look somewhat decent. Was nice place to hang around. However the design of it does not please me at all and I would like to move it somewhere else in the guild hall. I tried to google about it but found nothing of help (most threads over half year old), another possibility is that I am just bad at googling.
Anyway, it would be really great to be able to move the portal to another place in the hall. If this is currently actually possible, pardon me for this rant.

Second issue – Workshop restoration 2:
Honestly saying upgrading workshop restoration 2 was big mistake for me. I liked to have the shorter walk to the scribing station(restoration 1), have the Master Scribe right next to me for easy access to scribing supplies. Now with restoration 2 the Master Scribe npc is so far away so that every time I need to go buy more supplies I have to close the crafting window due to npc being too far, and after returning to the station I have to find again where I was at with my crafting.
I felt bad with all this and tried to look for solution to at least reach the scribing station faster. Behind the scribe station there are 3 open windows. I thought I could walk thru them and make a shortened road to scribing station with SAB clouds. But nope, not possible as the game does not allow me to go thru the window… Though graphics clearly show my character would be small enough to fit out of the window, so this does not make really sense. Still this would not solve the annoying problem of Master scribe npc being too far away. Only suggestion I can offer to that is move the npc closer, like it was when our workshop restoration was still lvl1.

I understand there are bigger problems too in the game but these few things still are annoying. I love our guild hall, I love to spend time there, it is important for me and I am having fun upgrading and decorating it.

If someone has any suggestions about how to overcome my issues, I am all ears.

I too was wondering about these same issues earlier.

The portal is really annoying because in our guild hall as well we had decorated the area previously and then suddenly it “ruined” the view.

I doubt it would be hard to make those movable – if they are not at the moment. (I at least have found nothing about such )

The NPC could simply be relocated closer.
Anet please, lets make guild halls great again!
