I agree with Furrawn, the wording in the post(s) got to the point of venom cutting the pie and getting first pick of the slices. I also understand you all probably did not mean for it to come across that way, but regardless it was worded very strongly.

The crafting would be cool, but the guild houses are way over priced. A guild should cost something yes, or require an item from a difficult boss to create - but not be only for those that horde gold/items 24/7. Having guild levels is a good idea, as ppl play or xp, and getting additional xp for the guild - but perhaps that should be individual? Thus, if an individual leaves the guild, the guild would be minus that xp, and maybe the player take a 10% hit or something.

I also like the join button nerf, something needs to be done to stop random acquaintances joining a set group.
