    Lightbulb Guild Enhancements Brainstorming Thread

    Now that Housing is almost here, we'd like to turn our attention to Guilds.

    What type of enhancements, augmentations, and changes would you like to see with the current Guild system

    I know there have been several threads regarding this, but I'd like to consolidate the ideas here (links are fine).

    Thanks!

    Auction in gh, Pvp testing arena. Leaderboard guilds get a different colour guild title. A guild level system rewards items to guildies. More guildhalls.

    Umm, maybe :

    Guild search function? (so that players can search and apply etc ^^)
    Co-master
    Consignment shop/auction hall in guild hall (has pros and cons)
    Guild bank/storage (has pros and cons)
    Guild announcement board (for offline announcement etc)
    More options to sort guild list (maybe by levels?)
    Guild vs guild (would be fun)
    And maybe increase guild hall capacity (?)

    * For the guild search function, can include level requirements, and other requirements as well

    1. One special and own DATA leaderboard for each guild: The idea is Masters can use it to do some mini events or contest and also have more data control of PVP, PVE,APS, of members, recruiters and officers
    2. Gild Post office:
    Where each member of a guild can put a message and it's can be saved when the member is OFF. Example: A player who go to travel around the world can save a message in the GPO and everyone can know what happened with that user and the reason why he is absent. The master can put sticky in a message if he consider it important.
    3. New Guild design and with second floor:
    Will be amazing to see new guild styles and with a second floor , new option and decorations.

    I would like to make guild Motd a little longer. Adding and room where is dummy and we can test damage output, gear , skills. Hmmm auction will be nice too but it here we go to next suggestion: more players can enter GH.
    Guildboard: it will be added in guilhall. In this board master and officers can write such things like guild event and so on. While new message on board appear , every member of guild will get notification.

    • Editable guild ranks. For example replacing "member" with "peasant", "master" with "bae" and being able to add more titles of your choice.
    • Guild PVP zone (as previously mentioned).
    • Customizing guildhall like you will be able to do with your home.
    • Officer guildhall.

    Talking

    I have few ideas/requirement

    1) Guild member list sorting : need a sorting list like drop down of jewels in crafting screen categorized as
    a) show recently joined members
    b) show from A-G, H-O, P-Z etc etc orders
    Can't scroll 100s of names to check a single name who is offline right now

    2) TEMPORARY TERMINATION for few hours -days : Some members needs to be punished but kicking them out isn't needed...just a temporary termination from guild chat n hall is enough , like you ban players for few days.

    3) A Message board : Motd is fine, but we need a Message board with more character space to discuss strategy and info for events... It can be used like leader board in Guildhall. Can also be used as leader board for guild events and for many more things.

    4) Master /Officers can inspect online and offline members form guild llist : to check their progress and stats etc.... Players can choose from options screen that he want to share his inspect screen or not.

    5) Supreme Officer/ Vice master : A post which can prompt and demote members in absence of master. But he can't disband guild.

    And a Solid Gold vanity as fees if u choose any ideas :P

    Default Brainstorm of Guild Enhancements

    Uhhh... I think my brainstorm was named and tracked by the NWS. :P Sorry, the ideas just kept coming!

    Thanks to Justg and the team for this thread.

    To me, the biggest hurdle for AL is that guilds take a helluva lot of work to build and maintain - with little reward. Guild events shouldn't be such a burden, either. I think the game would be massively improved if leading a guild wasn't so taxing. I'm also including some suggestions that I think would improve the overall social infrastructure of AL. I put "(HIGH priority)" after the items I think are the most important for STS to consider.

    NEW Sponsored Event System (HIGH Priority)
    A new system to handle competitions, contests and events between various groups of players.

    Intraguild (Between Guild Members)
    * Examples: PvE kills, AP contests, CTF Flags, Trivia, Prize Giveaways, Fashion, Pitching In To Help Out A Guildmate, etc.
    Interguild (Between Guilds)
    * Examples: PvP tournaments, Timed Runs, Fashion, Boss Kill Contest, Fashion, Home Tours, etc.
    Global (Open To Everyone)
    * Examples: See most above examples plus... Farming Bounties (such as asking players to find an E4, or the Child's Play Contender, or just to form an elite map party)

    The ability for an individual player or a guild to sponsor and set up an event/competition/contest/bounty in game would be simply fantastic. And, yes, STS itself could sponsor events alongside players and guilds.

    How I imagine the sponsored event system working:
    * A sponsor approaches an event board in game, similar to the leaderboard or consignment shop.
    * The sponsor sets up an event and it is advertised on an event board.
    * Sponsor pays a fee to use the system and puts up prizes/awards.
    * Event boards are placed in towns and in guild halls.
    * Town event boards list game-wide events and guild event boards list guild-wide events.
    * Players who meet the criteria set by the sponsor may join the event.
    * Each event has a beginning and and end, triggered by a time schedule or another parameter such as meeting a specific goal.

    Communication Enhancements

    Messaging Inbox - Ability to send messages that will persist until deleted. (HIGH priority)
    * Having to communicate out of game via a 3rd party app is a hindrance to gameplay and also excludes players who cannot or will not use one.
    * Players will spend more time communicating in game
    Option to change the guild name
    * Major guilds have been completely abandoned solely because members wanted a different name.
    * Charge platinum to change the name
    Two additional multipurpose guild chat channels
    * Gives PvP players, recruiters, etc separate chat channels to carry out activities that would be otherwise disruptive in normal guild chat
    * Please also give every guild member ability to opt out of each channel (in Options/Social Options)
    Persistent guild chat
    * Gives players the option of reviewing up to 24 hours of guild chat activity after they've been offline

    Informational Enhancements
    Publicly list Achievement Points for all characters
    * On the Inspect/Avatar tab
    Allow players to select a nickname in addition to their primary name.
    * Viewable only to friends and guild members
    * Reduces confusion when a player changes their name
    Guild Information Board
    * Publicly viewable general information board
    * Accessible as a tab whenever a guild member is inspected, e.g. (Avatar | Give | Trade | Guild)
    * Board message is editable by Guild Master and Knight
    * Editable Content on Board:
    * Guild Logo - include a variety of logos with the ability to select logo color and background color
    * Guild Slogan - short slogan
    * Guild Message - Long message.
    Guild application system
    * Place an "Apply" button on the Guild Information Board
    * Submits an application to guild leadership
    Social Page Improvements
    * Guild Tab - List last login time of each member (HIGH priority)
    * Guild Tab - List achievement points of each member (HIGH priority)
    * Add new tab - [Guild Info]
    NEW Guild Info tab
    * Contains private information board for Guild Members, editable by leadership
    * Displays guild statistics similar to Top 50 Guilds thread, especially total guild achievement points! (HIGH priority)
    * Displays each member's statistics that are available on a member's Avatar Screen
    * Move buttons: [Browse Guild Halls], [Set MOTD] and [Disband Guild] to Guild Info tab
    * Create Edit buttons for Logo, Slogan, Message (available only to proper rank)
    * Message field could allow for up to 5000 characters

    Guild Structure Enhancements
    Limit Guild membership to a finite number (100 members, for example)
    * Raises the value of each member
    * Would create greater competition for guild leaderboard
    * Reduces stagnancy
    * Prevents any single guild from being overly dominant
    Create two additional guild ranks
    * Ranks could be: Master, "Knight", Officer, Recruiter, Member, "Initiate" (HIGH priority)
    * Members need something more to aspire to
    * Greater variety of ranks means more room to grow
    * Upon joining new members are set to Initiate rank.
    * Initiate rank is considered probationary but has same permissions as Member
    * As guild development continues, future Initiate rank permissions could be limited
    * Member rank becomes an acknowledgement of full membership
    Officer rank changes
    * Limit ability to kick Recruiter, Member, and Initiate to 5 per day (HIGH priority)
    * Grant ability to promote to Recruiter and Member.
    "Knight" rank permissions
    * Can promote/demote through Officer
    *
    Can kick Officer, Recruiter, Member and Initiate
    * Limit kick ability to 10 per day
    * Ability to promote through Officer rank
    * Ability to demote Recruiter to Member
    * Can edit public and private guild message

    Thanks again STS for the opportunity to make these suggestions!

    A system where every guild member can farm from various maps (or buy) and donate "guild essences" to the guild that can be used only to upgrade the level of the guild. Each level grants to every member titles,banners,untradeable gears ecc. (With attention.to not impact the economy) + some decorations for guildhall.
    At higher levels level up will be pretty difficult but rewards will be worth it.
    So this way theres another thing to farm for farmers and a strong co operation to reach a goal that will benefit the whole guild community.

    This,and stuff like cs and guildboard in gh like others said.
