People should be able to see what furniture they can get besides just the Guild Master. Leave it so the Guild Master is the only one that can buy but right now no one besides the GM can even know what is available to get besides having the GM either tell them. They should also be able to preview furniture so they can see what they look like before buying it so you don't end up buying something that either doesn't fit with what you are trying to design especially when you are buying under a budget look most guilds.

This will allow people to be more creative, buy more furniture since they know what they are getting and allow other people in the guild to pitch in their ideas since they can all see everything that is available instead of either using their imagination, having to buy the furniture first just to see what it looks like, or having their gm describe it to them.

i like it

everyone in the guild hould be able to preview the emporium, and only the officers and guild master get to be able to use the funds to buy it. also, have for a way that if an item is placed in storage, and a guild mate wants to remove it, make it so they have to get the guild masters of officers consent to remove it so things wont be going missing without anyones knowledge. also have the record take down who deposit or takes from the storage.

the Furniture page has been updated on the SK Wiki

I'm sure Images of each (placed in the GH) will be coming soon.

I like it, but it would become obsolete very quickly, because as Toula said, all the furniture will be on the Wiki shortly.

but.....

all of the accessories are available for preview, so why would it be so difficult for the devs to create a preview for the furniture's. that way i wouldn't have to open a window and go look at the wiki for the furniture. i mean if the wiki was set as the main way to look at things like accessories, why didn't that developers just create a link to the wiki when ever a player wants to preview (see) what the accessory looks like.

I know about the wiki but

I know about the wiki but some people won't like the new player who want to make a guild. Yes if they were smart it would be easy to search for it with a few words but most people are lazy. Besides it would also be great to know how big the items are to help plan out a room more. I've already use the wiki and I really feel it would just be a work around rather than if they fully implement it into the game in the future. I feel like the wiki is for secondary information rather than being a primary source of information so basically unless someone is actively looking for a certain piece of information they wouldn't go and look at the wiki.

Also,just like Blandaxt said it is basically the same as accessories and previewing them. I'm pretty sure it's actually easier to preview the furniture than it would be accessories since all they really do is show the furniture models instead of replacing or adding models to the spiral knight player models like they do with accessories so it would be easier to implement.

Besides this is better then getting maybe 10-30 people to look at the wiki and making a list, especially in the future when more new furniture comes out.

i guess..

i have no more to say sense ellip mentioned most of my points, but one point i have to mention is that the wiki is player base information and not definite explanation of the section of the game that is being explained. The wiki has kept a record of being usually correct, but that doesn't mean the devs who programed the game cannot put the intended meaning of that item so there will not be any mistakes.

i am still perplexed why the wiki is used as a main source of information about the game when most of these information should be learned in an in-game help menu or in some sort of in-game tutorial. i guess this is a game first of its kind where the developers get help from the players so as to not perform any extra work creating a player base influenced information. this does in a way create a new aspect to the game where some players want to be the first to record their ideas into the wiki, but for the devs to use this information so substitute for extra work which could create more depth in the game feels improper.
