Guild Tax “guild tax” option to collect a small percentage of the gold acquired by members, perhaps an option in “economy” or “politics”. This tax would be supplied to the guild bank which would fuel another option “Guild armor repairs”.

Guild Repair Contract an option in “economy” for the guild to pay X amount (determined by Guild leader , customizable per rank ) for guild repairs.

Guild Bank Change allow for guild leaders to customize the Stacks withdrawn per rank for the guild bank option.

Promotion Problems in the current system when you promote a member it does not show a confirmation. This is is causing problems where Guild Leaders are accidentally promoting members to the highest rank with no way to demote them. Possible Fix : Confirmation message for leader ranks. “Do you really want to promote (name) to (Rank)”. You could also give the Creator of the guild Ultimate control. Even when there is 2 at max rank the Creator still has the overall admin control. Another problem is that the Promotions are alphabetical not sorted by rank. FIX : When promoting ranks should be sorted the same way they are in the ranks tab.

Guild PvP Server : There is really no support currently for Guilds designed around sPvP. Allowing a guild to purchase a sPvP server, which in turn will have a domain name, and option to be password protected. Purchasing a sPvP server will either be threw IP when guilds reach the highest level in Art of War or a Combination of Trees. Also an option to be purchased for Gems. This would allow for Wargames within PvP guilds, or small guild based tournies.

Alliances Add alliance systems to the options guilds can have. This would further promote community within guilds and alliances. While there are no real reasons to have alliance currently like in guild wars 1 ( owning cities ). We still want them to increase our communities.

Guild Size Please increase Guild Member limit. Guilds are starting to have to break into more guilds and currently since there is no way to be in both chat systems at the same time the community of one guild is being split. This could also possibly be fix with Alliances if there is a reason not to increase guild size.

Custom Guild Emblems This feature would allow guilds to upload their own guild emblem. Thus making each guild more custom and allowing for the owner ship of ones OWN guild. The emblem would have to be a set size ( determined by anet), be a set amount of colors each demed “Primary” “Secondary” Ect. so they could be color edited in game, and possibly under go a censor ship threw guild wars to prevent any profanity.

Guild Server Transfer This is more for when Free realm transfers shut down. Pay X amount go Gems/Influence to create a “Guild Transfer Ticket” consumable. When consumed by the Guild Leader it allows you to transfer your entire guild to X server ( which is and will not be made full by the addition of your guild.)

Optional Guild Emblem An option to just not display a Guild Emblem. Some Guilds prefer to just not have an emblem, they should have an option too.

Guild Kick 1. “Kick from Guild” should NOT be an option when right clicking someones name. Too many times in parties have I accidentally kick guild members from the guild instead of kicking them from the party. It should only be accessible from the Guild Menu. 2. Confirmation for any type of Promotion or Demotion ( including kicks)

Guild Bound Items We have account bound so we can have one of our higher level characters support our lower levels. Can we have Guild Bound items ( armor/weapons/ect) so that our higher level members can support our lower level members. or . Wealthier members support poorer. We are a community are we not?

The Guild system in guild wars 2 seems very thrown together to me and is lacking some MAJOR features even from the first gw that didn’t make it into the second.

-Mutli-Guild Problems- Possible Multi-Guild Fix 2 : Allow Mutli-Guilds. Limt the amount of guilds a character can be involved in. Do not limit chat involvement to only one guild, Create multiple channels for each guild, with same options as the normal chat system. Each Guild having an assigned and Customizable Color. When a character completes a task pvp/event/ect. which provides IP. IP is generated for all guilds the player belongs too. (Possibly with the option of splitting currency 1 guild membership = 100% to the guild, 2 guild membership 50%-50% and so on. “Representing” For a guild is purely cosmetic, Showing that guilds logo/Tag. Keeps Guild mates from other guilds Nameplates Orange, Even if not representing.

-Ranking System needs tweaking- In the current state the ranking system is very restricted. You cannot allow members to invite players without kicking them also. FIX: Split “Admin Lower Ranks” Into “Promote/Demote” and “Invite Members”.

-Organization within Roster I would like to see an organization option to have Ranks of ONLINE players be an option. If I sort the guild by Rank in the current set up it shows offline members. I would also like to see a break between the Ranks, A small line would even due just some organization.

-Officer Chat- Communication between officers/leader without having to make a ton of whispers or a party to talk

-MotD- “Edit” erases everything, it needs to do exactly what it says, Edit the message. Also Guild setting turning on/off if the message displays when a Character logs on/off

-Guild Description Currently the only place to put Guild Rules/Vent info in guild is in the MotD. Guilds need an area to put a description of what there about, and also include vent info, rules, other info that doesn’t take up a spot where guild events / achievements should be being announced.

-Notes- Both Officer and Public, Because Guilds are account based it is easy to lose characters in their alts. This would help Guild Leaders identify “Mains” for PvP teams, and PvE teams. Also this needs to be done to form a communication between officers if a member is being rude while one Officer is on they can leave a note so if it comes up again another officer can follow through. Also with positive influence, if an officer sees some leadership qualities they can write that in so the Guild Leader can keep an eye on them.

-(Name) Logged On/Off - Name says it all. Have a Guild setting to post when a Player has logged on or off of Guild wars.

-Last seen on- I have members in my Guild that I have no idea if they have even logged on since the launch of the game.

-Influence Tracker- I would like to see some sort of Account based influence tracking, While I can see this causing problems because Guilds could create Influence Quotas. I would like to see that so I can identify members who are pumping out influence and reward them.

-Emblem- I would like to see more “Showing Off” of emblems, Time being they are very small icons here and there. A couple options are Icons by names, Banners on weapons and armor ( not capes ) but literally a banner you wear on your back(much like the blade master in warcraft3).

-sPvP Bonuses- No I do not want to have a + 40Vitality (ect) buff for sPvP and tPvP. I would like to see more options to support Guilds within tPvP tho. “+ X% sPvP influence increase”, “sPvP Guild Finishing Move”, “sPvP armor banner”, “+Magic Find sPvP” (for chest rewards).

-Guild Halls- This was in the first Guild Wars and I would like to see it again. “Guild Hall” – Requires Max level in at least 1 Rewards Tree (Politics,AoW,Economy,Arch.) You also need to use influence to Purchase upgrades for your hall, Thus if a Guild has a hall using the Art of War tree they cannot get the same upgrades a guild using the Economy Tree has. Each tree will have its own unlocks for the Guild. Also a place to run PvP Skirmishes/Tournaments.

-Mailing Feature- Mailing Feature which would allow you to compose a message to either the entire Guild or Officers. This could be used to expand communication within the Guild as not all members are online at the exact same time. Could be used to Set times for Guild Events, Meetings, On what days Guild bonuses will be activated. Also adding a “Guild” tab to the mail screen. (And while we are at it a BLTC Tab)

-Guild Calender- Allows for organization of events / buffs for guild. Exactly what normal calendars do :P

Please provide Feedback.
