Guild Feedback/Questions

[Smoothbrain]

Update: After about a week of acting as bank mule I am really fed up with it. It takes alot of time and it is more annoying then just simply cleaning a bank once a week. And how come we can only sell 10 things at once? I don't know this game is becoming more like work for me then anythign else as a guild leader. Really need some tools.

You actually have to quit game, not just log. It is a bug and they know about it but it is not a priority apparently.

What makes you think it's not a priority? The fix might not be as simple as you think.

And yes I'm aware I have to /quit out.

Another thing I would like to see is a message that pops up in guild chat whenever a member levels up. This of course could be turned on or off via the options.

Looks like there's no more guild bug... at least for me. I don't know how long it's been fixed for now - unless I missed something in the patch notes.

There are a lot of great suggestions to the in-game guild manager, but I've never read any confirmation that they are even looking at such a thing. Are we just dreaming here or might they actually give us something more robust for running our guilds inside the game?

Maybe in an expansion a year from now? LOL

I too come from EQ2 and my feeling is that I have been simply spoiled there with incredibly functional and easy to use guild functionality and tools. they were in from the day we setup the guild on launch day though so it does beg the question what does Sigil think of these. I see we have some new Ranks which is lovely but as they have no function other than being able to have names they arent used in my guild at the moment

For me this is a huge part of helping me to forge the community. Don't get me wrong we have a strong, thriving guild of over 70 members in the game at the moment but this is one of the things that although not a real game breaker, is certainly a bit of a spoiler for most of us so spoiled in the EQ2 mindset.

I would love to see one of 2 things...

* Some snippets to tell us what they are looking at with regards to guild tools. or...
* Tell us there aren't any plans to include them and then folks can make their own decisions on how to manage the guild or how to live with (or not) the lack of tools.

I must say that in the premium MMOs this is an essential. I don't count WoW in the same bracket as EQ2 and VG simply because its success was built on the play and throw away appeal of the game. Everything was a lot easier and less guild centric from my smaller exposure to the game but its success lay in the ease of play and often lower strategic side of the game in comparison. Not a dig at the most successful MMO to date, just not my cup of tea. I hope Digil and the VG team can look at this as a priority and gradually put in place some tools.

Would I be happier with less game crashes or some guild tools in the next 3 months... TBH more guild tools oddly... and I can't believe myself that I am typing that either

Had ANYONE seen anything or have the Devs that I hear so much about reading these threads got anything at all to say..... it sure would be appreciated

Agreed.

Don't you mean SIGIL though?

[Karofin]

Lol yeah.... or is this a secret new branch that only my keyboard knows about

Be really nice for something on this though. Can a site mod do something about contacting the devs or CS about it ? not sure if there is a better way through another website even ? Just would love some feedback

[Karofin]

Any chance we might be able to ask the CS or DEVS please about this Site Admins. Trouble is there is no actual "Guild" affiliate site and this is about the only way I can think to get some feedback, even slight regarding this issue. Would be great if a site admin who is in touch with the Sigil team could post here letting us know if they can do it and if Sigil are in a position to comment or not, and if not then fair enough but no news in this case is bad news. I would be happy to start compiling a list of questions from this post and other conversations as a starter and will keep them brief and specific

[Aredhel]

I'll see what I can do.
