Guild Conflict Countdown

10 February 2016 - 15:53

Currently, if you leave a guild during a conflict for whatever reason, the system prevents you from joining another guild until that conflict expires (even if it is completed before then). This is by design and in itself is not a problem.  The problem is, if you are not in the guild, you have no way of knowing when that time is.

If you try to accept an invite to another guild, the only information you get is:

INFORMATION

You cannot join a guild before the expiry time of the conflict initiated by your previous guild while you were a member.

Unless you were diligent in recording the end time of any conflicts before you left, you have to keep trying periodically until it lets you in.  Even if you were diligent, if someone initiated a conflict a second before you click "Leave Guild" you have absolutely no way of knowing.

 

If there was a countdown on the Join a Guild page or time-stamp in the above message as to when you can join the next guild, it would serve to alleviate a lot of frustration when switching guilds.


Returning to a guild

22 January 2016 - 22:22

This may have been brought up in the past but I thought I would bring it to light and see what others think.

 

The way things work right now, you can be with a guild for a while and earn 1 million contrib XP for the guild.  If a friend needs your help in another guild, when you leave the guild looses all of that XP.  When you return, the XP still shows in Guild Adviser but your progress goes back to 0 and the Guild does not get any of the XP back.

I am fine with the player's personal progress being reset but I think the Guild XP should reflect the total in Adviser.

Alternately, if a player has been in a guild for a very long time but then decides to leave, why can't the guild keep a portion of the experience? (not sure if I like this idea but just throwing it out there)

 

One big issue has always been if a very high level player joins a guild for a few months and racks up a LOT of XP for that guild but then decides to leave, this can drop the guild many levels in an instant and leave that guild in a big hole to try to get back to where they were before.  I have also recently seen one of the top guilds drop multiple levels when one of the top contributing players was banned.  Regardless of what the player did or didn't do, the Guild paid the price there.
