    Default Guild Symbols

    Just a suggestion, but I thought it would be cool if guilds could have their own personal vanity shield or something like that with a personalized symbol on them.

    I have more u could add to make the devs like it, u need to have the guild master pay platinum for a special shield for each of the members or for officers or recruiters, or special ppl they choose. The price will vary depending on the size and the amount needed. To help u I'm gonna get this thread ,over before it's closed.

    nah i say normal shields but with little engravings or emblms on them. Devs would NEVER give an unfair advantage to those without the platinum, and trust me if this eer was an idea, it would cost AALLLOOTTT!

    Talking

    I thought about that though, and I figured that free vanity shields isn't too awful much too come off of, ya know? I mean, they just made bank with mt fang, and we already have to pay to start guilds, so why not just make this one thing free? Don't get me wrong, I completely understand where you're coming from and appreciate your help, I just figure that one free shield type isn't gonna bankrupt them.

    And please, if anyone has any ideas for symbols please post. I noticed a few very good artists in a couple other threads, so if you have any ideas or just general suggestions let me know.

    I say no to vanity shields. That may be a bit difficult to incorporate. However, I'm all for personalized guild emblems, like a graphic that appears next to the our guild names over our heads, in place of the gold/silver orbs.

    They would cost say, 50 plat? And would be able to customize in game through an npc, with a number of symbols, letters, or numbers that we could place and rotate (sort of like emblems in call of duty). Or have a grid with a set number of squares that we can fill in with assorted colers to create the graphic.

    An issue that may arise are players creating innapropriate emblems (private body parts, violent imagery). I guess this would apply for reporting innapropriate behavior such as the names, but images can be more direct than words. It would be a problem since devs arent on 24hr call for such things, and the offenders would be out and about until then. Perhaps making emblems cost more than 50 plat would make one think twice before being naughty.

    Definitely a good call, buckler for 1 tier, medium shield for 2 tier, and maybe a gemmed shield for 3 tier? If you need to charge for it, make it so that it starts out silver, then you can upgrade to gold for a couple plat or something?

    i think it would be neat if we could design something like you can on mario kart for ds when you're designing your emblem for your car. maybe design it for another 20 plat and anyone in your guild who would want to buy your design it would cost them like 10 plat or something.

    Yeah, but should it really cost 20 plat? I mean, that seems kinda steep.. I was thinkin like 5, if that. With everything else to spend it on, why charge that much extra?

    I love this idea! Yes I also think that this should be free. Also, I think that you could have a certain deal depending on the guild hall you buy. Here is the deal for each guild hall:
    DEFAULT: Shield only for guild master
    SMALL: Shields for master and officers
    MEDIUM: Shields for Recruiters, officers, and master.
    LARGE: Shields for all!
    Also, to design it, there should be a tav for the guild master to create the shield design. Then he/she could post a thread showing the finished product, and the guild members decide if they like it ir not! I encourage this idea to be shown to the game developers. Bye all!

    Guild leaders could always be required to submit their designs to the devs before it is implemented, which would avoid any no-no designs They would have to wait for approval, of course, but for some customization I know I would be willing to wait
