Guild Wars 2

To infernia.9847:

This was also their response to my ticket:

The development team recognizes that players would like to see a feature added to the game that allows a guild to be renamed instead of disbanded. That option may become available in the future, but at the present time we must disband the guild to remove the unacceptable name and/or tag.

So, nothing. I also requested a list of all the folks in the guild pre-disband and a transfer of influence/guild upgrades to our new one, but this request cannot be fulfilled, as expected.

Hey, I was one of the leaders of said guild (it was called Brain Fart). It’s been around for almost as year and a half, with a bit less than 400 members and last night, out of the blue it suddenly just disappeared with no warning or any notice. I wrote a ticket to support asking what happened to our guild and the reply was:
We note that you have written to ask why your guild is missing. After reviewing the details, we determined that your guild was disbanded because the guild name and/or its acronym (“handle” or “tag”) was found to be in breach of the Guild Wars 2 Naming Policy.

This would’ve been completely fine, had it occurred in the first few weeks of the guild’s existence, but now after 1.5 years and 400ish members it leaves a bad taste. We lost all upgrades, 500k influence and everything in the guild bank, not to mention tracking down all the members to ’’reinvite’’ into our newly formed guild will be an almost impossible task.
