Guild Management request

Dalayan Beginner
Maybe I've missed it in the /cmd guild help...but I don't think I saw it in there...

I'd like to request a way for guild leaders (and only leaders or officers with proper permission set) to pull data of all current members. Or at least a way to check name by name even. For those of us who like to keep an updated roster it would be handy if Fomelo would show a guild tag. I think Foma and Aeran are busy with RL stuff, so this won't be anytime soon I don't think.

Alternately maybe a full guild listing could be pulled. Or maybe you could do /cmd guildlist 20 and get 20 members at a time. Maybe limit it to once per 4 real hours to alleviate strain on the database for the full listing. If people choose to check it by 20 people at a time, make a refresh timer of a minute or two?
 
That would be incredibly handy. Maybe limit it to guild leaders and let them pull a full list of guild members. Beats heck out of having to reform because you have random alts logging in and no clue who the heck they are.
 
Yeah without the guild management tool working, this would be an acceptable work around. My officers are pretty good about not inviting alts unless it's posted on our boards, but it would still be handy to have. :)
 
I am a casual player who has never belonged to a guild, and I am clueless about guilds. I can see why characters (toons) belong to one guild and one guild only, but you guys seem to imply that players can only belong to one guild. I mean, why can't my 20th level cleric belong to guild X, and my 15th level wizard belong to guild Y? One of the reasons to have alts is that no one knows who they are.

Not really on topic, but at higher levels if you are in 2 guilds then which one gets priority? Which guild gets shorted a member that may end up making the raid fail? Guilds do that to make sure that loyalties and time are all focused on the same goals (imo).

We're not implying that. We're implying that we want to know all the alts *IN* our guilds...who they belong to. You make an alt elsewhere, that's fine. My guild doesn't have any specific rules about that, but I shy away from helping out people who don't help the guild, that way we're not intentionally going out of our way for someone's alt who has loyalty elsewhere. Time is an investment, and I like returns.

That's besides the point...the point is...a guild management tool (command line or otherwise) would be very useful to have.
 
Is there any dev-related interest on such a thing or whether it's out of the question? Does anyone else out there have use for such a tool?
 
Why not just activate the guild management screen that is available? I believe it is either alt-g or ctrl-g that brings up the screen. It's just not active.
 
I believe it has been said before that making the guild management screen that is already a part of the UI would be an ungodly amount of work, and so its not gonna happen. At least I'm pretty sure I read that from Wiz at some point.

Fixed that for you (from what I recall). Raid tools were put i game, right? It's along the same line, it just takes a shit ton of coding and there are far more important things on the to do list atm.
 
Don't care if the UI guild management works or not really. I'd be happy with a command line implementation of it.

Indeed! Having any working guild management tool would be A++ in my book. :)
