I could make a thread for each topic but instead ill try to keep it short. ( sorry for poor organization haha)
New guild hall items
New NPC guild hall events
Passive guild level bonuses

Guild perks - some added bonus to be unlocked through teamwork and guild wide effort. These bonuses couldnt be too powerful or else it would create a further divide between very large established guilds and smaller guilds. We dont want to make the perks so good you decide to join a high level guild based solely on that.
- guild perk idea: let a small % of all crowns earned from each individual player be collectively added into the guild treasury.
- other ideas could be purely cosmetic rewards. such as reach x level guild unlock x item in guild hall shop.

Tabards & guild crest - Another way to promote a better sense of unity could be to allow each guild to customize their own guilds crest, and have a cosmetic tabard costume that guild members could buy to represent. There could be different versions of the tabard for recruit through GM.

added functionality. actually give us a reason to be inside the hall
- examples: give access to trade chat from within the auction house.
- add pet food machine
- add brinks token vendor
- PVP arena testing grounds.( dueling area) ( Zoned instance with different settings in different rooms similar to the advanced training hall, places where you could test free for all pvp or team combat)
-

guild hall events
- mini boss invasions
- NPC hide and seek
- NPC tag

interactive features, dusty cobwebs need cleaning. can hire npc staff to help. also can hire more event npcs. potential mission/quest lines too. amaro monster hunter questline. ( think this has the largest potential for more content) ( you would get a message in guildchat when an event starts so you dont always have to be camping out ur guildhall waiting around.)

Shadow lair statues!!!!! this would be a really fun endgame goal to achieve with your fellow guildmates :D

items- let us remove and sell furnishings from the guildhall. AND instead of adding ALL the cool fancy guildhall items through promos sell them in infinite quantity via guild hall shop.

have a rare rotation of special furnishings from the guild hall vendor. perhaps these items would be the only remaining soulbound items.

allow us to sell statues too. Guilds working together to build a statue is great, but what if you already have plenty?? Then a whole guild working together to make a great profit would surely add incentive to keep group farming those same boss tokens :D

I'd love to hear your thoughts/opinions/new ideas for these concepts below!

Idea updates:

- Rare spawns in guildhall (these would not alert you like the other events and would have top tier goodies like armor/weapons or accessories unique to that rare spawn. A special reward for those faithful or lucky to the hall and more incentive to gather up and spend time together.
- potential limited duration rewards like fully heated unique weapons. (Im thinking longterm incentives to stick around instead of something you can instantly grind for, easily obtain and then be bored of again)

- Guild message board ( A place where gm's / officers can post extra information on guides/events, and a place where members could request recipes and materials) * with clickable links!

- Optional additional guild ranks and renaming of ranks.

- The ability for guildmasters and officers to send a message to all members. ( private mail or whisper)

- Roaming critters. Similar to snipes we could have some little chromalisks or wolver pups running around inside the hall. Some different versions: Shy: would either turn invisible when you get close or run out of reach forever. Mischievous: these ones would follow players around, hiding behind furniture and occasionally pouncing/Sneak attacking.

- Display Case. Similar to the base trophy/statues it would just be the bottom half, you could choose to put one of your items into the display case temporarily. Only the knight that puts the item in could retrieve it. ( it wouldnt actually take it out of your inventory, but it would make it unusable)
Think about having your favorite bomb/shield/sword/helmet or armor displayed :D !!
( updated with more ideas: - Wall mounts: going with the vertical placement idea and trophy stand, Wall mounts! Think ameros hunting lodge style.
& a large glass trophy cabinet. This one could hold multiple items, more of a great collectors item)

- Upkeep return taxes. At the end of the month, or every couple months or so a small percent ( maybe 5-10%) would be returned directly to your treasury.

- Item idea: Grass patches/tall grass ( not potted plants), and the wall ivy.

- More Floor textures in guildhall

- Guild hall item preview. Before you spend 1mill on lights, it would be nice to put them all down and see how they look first, same with any item. Just have an option to put down any item in design mode but when you publish it would disappear.

- Speed pads. Similar to racing games, little strips on the ground that give you a huge movement speed buff while in the guild hall.

- WAR MODE! a couple different options to toggle and enable free for all pvp inside the hall at any location. The gm/officers could disable friendly fire so we could destroy invaders in our guild hall :3

- let us keep the empty prizeboxes from promotional events to use like the christmas present furnishings.

- Guild elevator with hidden secret floors/lairs for different recruit levels

- Guild obstacle course. Similar to the training hall, or perhaps even just an extension. It would let you choose from 3 different terrain types and let you basically design a mini level to test your fellow guildmates and friends. There would be a limited selection to choose from of course and less freedom than an actual level design, but enough to get creative and challenging.

- Better control/more placement options for items in the guild hall. ( Like being able to put a 1 tile item in the middle of 4 tiles, etc)
& vertical placement. let us stack objects ontop of eachother.

- More pre built installed rooms. Just one example: Stables. Knights could choose to display their favorite pet in the guild hall either in the communal pet stables or in their own room wherever they want. There would also be a pet food alchemy machine built into this room.

Responding and stuff

A lot of good ideas here. The guild tax solution suggested would be practical, but how much should it be? 1-5% perhaps?

Also, the guild crest/logo is a good idea. The devs could look at the flag customiser in "Big great war game" for inspiration.
About the uniform costume.. Our guild(Iron Fluffers) already have that. In order to become veteran and above in rank you have to invest in the Iron Wolver coat, and Iron dragon helmet.

One big issue though:
- Selling furniture used in the guild hall should Not be ann option, as guilds could potentially steal each others stuff.

Always, ALWAYS need moar furniture

All this sounds really good. In addition I want a fully functional noclip while in design mode.

The selling furniture function too? How would you avoid guild wars and theft?

to avoid theft? only gms

to avoid theft? only gms could remove items.

and I guess boss statues shouldnt be sold either because its one of the few things you should have to work for and not just be able to instantly buy. or perhaps you can sell normal statues but not the shadow lair versions :D

also @ nizada 5% of crowns dropped would be nice. or maybe there would be a larger percent contribution until u hit a weekly cap, like 15% untill you get your upkeep if you dont have it. at which point it reverts to a static 5% again. A guild wouldnt really run into the problem of having too much crowns in the treasury even now considering how much of a crown sink the furnishings are, not to mention how there would be even more things to spend treasury crowns on.

Well...

I've seen even guildmasters do so in other RPG's, but if only GMs could do it(Not Officers), it would become a little safer. ^^

@Nizada

I like it! I would go one farther though and I wish we all had status updates we could send out as notifications to ur whole friends list, so you can advertise things like looking for FSC run! etc

edit: also updated 2nd post with a couple ideas~

dueling

Ive wanted dueling for a little over a year now, but with the new devs hopefully it will get here soon, LD is ok but what about the old fasioned 1vs1 fight? I really hope the new devs come through for us, id like to how good some people really are, no outside interference, notime limits, just you and me.

P.S. how do i get my character portrait to showup on the left like everyone else? i dont see an option anywhere, and ive looked in the "my account" stuff but dont see it anywhere

@Crusaderxix

If you go to the top of the page, and look beside the search bar, it should say "forum preferences". Click it, than click edit. ^^

Make a tread about dueling. It's a good idea! ^^

A writing board which officers and gms can use to write info that are not fit in the MotD.

@ Dahall

yes! I forgot about that! As an officer I feel it's my duty to share as much information as possible. So in the past I thought it would be nice if there was a message board similar to the guild message of the day where you had more space to link relevant guild information. such as post notices of upcoming guild events, links to player written guides or a material /recipe hunting list that any member can post on. There would be different pages on the wall for different ranks too.

adding to second post^^

Love it!

The guild crest may be my favourite idea so far, that way you can customize your guild in ways other can't. Shadow Lair statues are smart, maybe they require the mats from the SL itself to make them? And the guild hall elevators is cool too, maybe have bosses that you can only find within the guild elevator?

In the guild writing board

In the guild writing board make it so they can copy a link.Its such a pain to copy manually as it is now.

The guild crest design thing

The guild crest design thing would be nice. But to make sure that it's not butchered by some troll, what if multiple people (of any rank, even Recruit) made a crest they think would be nice and everyone voted on it? The gm in highest seniority (founder) would have to start a vote for designs people have made, but people can design anytime and save it!

Another guild hall idea I have: Pet races. Since making certain pets go faster than others would make it unfair, the terrain would be designed that you must guide your pet to go to parts that make you faster. Also there could be powerups that hinder/help you/your opponents.

!

@ quever: updated!

@ wiz: a vote option in general would be nice.

as for pet races, maybe we could add that as just another setting to the guild obstacle course room idea I had :D

tl;dr

Can careless about complex ideas because it will never happen. The only thing I groan about for years being GM is that they still didn't make an update about my rant about no guild bulletin boards yet... That's the only quick and fairly simple addition they can add for guilds... That's how guilds usually die. The lack of info feed is limited to the crap MOTD character cap that its only allowed to have... But who knows... It's probably too late to add that now. A guild is only seen as another organizational unit like friends and ignored list. A guilds name rarely holds any meaning anymore.

You can't force people to get steam, skype, discord, teamspeak, mumble, ventrilo, some guild forum site or whatever... They're to lazy for that.

neb

go away, you quit. go crush dreams somewhere else.
but yes, realistically do I think they will add even 1% of my ideas? no. Will that stop me from making suggestions? No. What can I say its fun.

However, If I had to pick 4 realistic ideas from the list they would be :
New/editable names of ranks
Guild bulletin board
Better control/placement of items in hall ( stacking items/placing inbetween tiles)
Recycle models already ingame for guildhall purposes and make them actually accessible.
