Pretty simple idea I have been playing with - right now guild topics are tucked away to where unless you have them tracked you have to click a few links to get access to your guild's topics OR the public guild topic listing.
My idea is to merge the guild topic page and member list entirely, eliminating the need to follow extra clicks to get to everything.
This also makes it MUCH simpler for less active guild members and brand new guild members to see and interact in all of the guild's topics.

Image below for my idea of what it would look like.

I know some may question how it would look on mobile - and to that I say it would mimic how user profiles look currently, where the topics would be stacked (under the member list) when viewing on mobile.

Hope this makes sense, and I am interested to hear feedback!

This is how I envisioned it looking with a couple notes in red...



Special shoutout to Dignity for allowing me to display their guild to bring my idea to life!

i like the idea

I like this could we remove the last seen though? like its in peoples profiles and would leave some room for less clutter

I think this might actually complement the recent other changes.

Such a great suggestion.
Yes please!

+1 I think the last guild topic I looked at was two years ago.

+1 as long as it fits decently on smaller monitors
Would save people clicks

Daddy Vilify approves! Good idea

Cool idea, but from my prospective it would make the page quite busy and topics are easy enough to find IMO.

From a design standpoint for something like this it should go vertically, not horizontally and some guild topics are not visible for non-members making it a waste of clean space in my eyes.
You naturally want this to scale and be able to work across devices with a up/down scroll as it's more orthodox to the general mobile user as well.

Withholding my vote for now, I like the idea behind but the styling/engineering it would take could be better allocated elsewhere; with not a big difference in generating more/unique users to each said topic.

Feel free to push back, just my prospective

No I certainly appreciate the feedback!!! This was honestly my first thought as well, as it seems with the latest updates we are trying to appease both crows (mobile versus desktop).
That's why I just suggest the ideas, I can't really offer a whole lot in terms of the coding and everything - my photos are created using photoshop so no coding involved there haha

One thing I did want to point out is my quick note from post #1 in-regard to the display for mobile:



All in all, I would love to make something like this work for both ways of utilizing d2jsp - while also allowing it to be more fluid for guild members to find discussion threads.

Tyvm for the comments and constructive criticism Patrick, very much appreciated!
