Voted no. There’s no reason to give the same whistle warriors free shit every week. Literally only 4-5 guilds even have the numbers to make a run at hog any given week.

Make GP able to be spent on things so that it doesn’t just benefit the elites.

Agreed.

Any system that gives value or use to GPs would inherently benefit the top 5 guilds the most anyway; but that doesn’t mean something couldn’t be useful and beneficial to all groups.

Make GPs spendable or something.

50 GPs a month and you can use an orb on guild name.
1 GP for item transfer between guild mates (without vault use)
100 GPs a month for guild vault
10 GPs for a 24 hour guild drop boost.
Guild XP boost
Guild prof boost

Etc

WRT Ringers.

I resent this description with the utmost scorn possible

I moved to my current guild by choice - not by bribe or any other incentive

I deeply resent the term ''ringer'' being applied to players like myself who have chosen to move from one guild to another.

Were there to be any incentive such as fg for GP's, there are a few of us that could bankrupt a guild in no time flat

Yes, some are more productive than others, but this is entirely by their own choice, not by ''bribery''

You need more than shut-eye -- maybe shut an orifice that is a little lower.


I wasn't referring to you moving to EE from Labby ... that is your misinterpretation to the point of my post, shit I did not even use your username, I can only surmise that you came to that conclusion because I stated the "top 3 etc" was meaning you, sorry to burst your bubble, I did not even think of the names of any of the top 3 guilds, frankly because I don't care who they are, kudos to their efforts, grats, well done, good for them... still don't know who they are.

And I know the numbers game with guilds that could go bankrupt etc... it isn't rocket science when people can do what you or I do when MQ'ing multiple characters, hence the point of my post that it can be abused, i mean sometimes one can get lucky;

Nothing wrong with wanting to make GPs or HOTW an incentive to get more people to play, I just think the idea or reward needs tweaking... I haven't even voted yet or nulled it, was thinking that someone might come in with another idea. Maybe it should be based off of Master Quest totals? but then people will just sit there and whistle all their mules to 71 and purposely fail so they can whistle them again just to get to 71 instead of 85 or more, etc.

I don't know... thinking others may come up with something to reward player for GPs or maybe Guild... we do need some more incentive other than whistling Dixie all day long.

Voted no, I have never seen rewards like that have a positive effect on any game I have played.

Should just give the winner a little piggy for the week:

Lots of good ideas. I voted for vault xfers b/c I am tired of paying 100fg for them. :P

Honestly it would be good if GP were worth something. You loose the when you leave guilds, why can't they xfer with you?

Or if you could use the in the "GARDEN OF HEROS" prior to leaving a guild as GunslingerofOld suggested.

Agree with this too. Guilds ebb and flow like the sea. Right now 3 very active guilds but some of us in the fringe are thinking about making a comeback.

I sent Paul a question about trying to think of a rewards for overall gp earned in a week from everyone. Like 200gps in a week collectively automatically gives a good event boost, but no response. Lol


^^ This i could go for.
But anything else just tbh is giving a few guilds freebies.
Just my opinion ofc

I definitely agree but tried to stay objective even knowing that most week oasis is in the running if I’m around. I just favor a more uniform boost so even new players are able to benefit from their GP gains.
