New members and guilds

[Thejollyone]

so many new players who need real help.

And then within 10 minutes of them asking for help, they are snatched up by the big 100 guilds. A day later they are in trades asking for help with a quest or similar..


Way to go you BIG GUILDS - take responsiblity for your crew. I hope you know you lack more credibility each time a guildie asks for help in trade etc.

SORT yourselves out!

I couldn't of said it better jolly same guilds spamming invites so they can be front page guilds, about time BB removed the ability to guild invite and made it application only, BB is missing a trick here, how many potential paying customers are lost because a newbie clicks on a guild invite knowing no better and ends up in a guild that's devoid of community and sometimes even active players, leading to them quitting.

A better solution might be new players are automatically enrolled in an academy type guild where there are a few active teachers to answer questions and help with quests etc, then when they reach say level 21 they automatically sent into the community to find their own way.

problem is not only in guilds, also problem is in new players.
they want immediately everything. they don't have patience. a lot time i see they ask for help on guild chat, if no one respond in 20 second they immediately ask on trade or help. they won't wait few min.

less problem with guild will be if you can invite in guild only friends. same as for adventure invite.

Also BB don't allow resources help for new player

Some ideas from other games, with some changes to adapt them to this game

4 players required to found a guild, all to be online at the same time and to agree to the founding of a guild within a time period of 30 mins.
Increase the cost of a guild house both types. should be on par with the cost of a ECM.
Make starting a guild a 3 or 4 player co-op adventure, player killing the last camp gets guild leadership, no other loot. Lootspotters get officer rank no other loot.
New players can't join a guild until the tutorial quests are complete.

This is not just a problem in the bigger guilds, but smaller ones with fewer players online (active and responsive not just the green light on)

Guilds are one of the biggest assets this game has bringing small communities closer and working together for their gains.

BlueByte devs could invest more in improving guilds, maybe a weekly guild quest with several targets.

More options for the guild officers would be a benefit like activity checks, guild quests history, even how many adventures done, trades, buffs used for example.

TBH not all see this as a regimental exercise, some guild operate to help and stick together others just want numbers and or ggc's
as with all the game its up to players to play there own game, not for others to tell them what or how to do this
after this is a game not real life lolz

(SORT yourselves out!) is defo to strong to say to them who dont follow your thoughts of order

Funny that cos in the dim and distant past, you were of a similar opinion yourself. Funny how people change isn't it?

99% of the time it's new player's fault. Some of them will spam every channel if they won't get an answer in few seconds.
