Thank you for all the nice posts and encouragement! To those who posted that they want to join, if you haven't been added yet it's because you were not online when we were; I'll give it another try tonight. I wish guild invitations would be saved when people are offline, just like friend requests.

As for what effect the guild may have on plat purchases: you have to consider that people might actually spend more platinum for pots if they're cheaper, in which case the guild will increase revenue for STS.

Just think: if STS was against large guilds, do you think they would have encouraged them by having a guild leaderboard and having no member cap?

In any case, there are already guilds much larger than this one will probably ever be, and yet I see no discussion on their threads about how they're harming the game. So I really don't see why this was brought up as an issue in our thread at all.
