Ok these are only suggestions so don't get going mad throwing the toys out the pram.

1) some kind of global shout? Maybe a charge of 50-100k a shout?

2) Guild Cap, maybe cap 30 players to a guild not including alts on same account, mite mix things up abit, spread the players out abit more, instead of the same ol 2 guilds fighting and bossing?

Not keen on the global shout, even if there's a cost.

I like the guild cap, but it's something that should have been done from the start. Little bit hard to implement it now.

^ Not really sure about global shout just gets annoying sometimes. I would definitely like a guild cap though, set at about 20-25 so it's not just a few massive guilds on the server, but like Skyline said it's probably a bit too late for that now

Guild cap would be awsome, like said above more guilds, more fights, more excitement! But probs abit late for that as also said above

I have never been keen on global shouting.

Guild cap is something I always wanted in as we have the functionality to do it, however, as previously stated it would be difficult to apply now.

There is already a guild cap of 100 which is fine. With that you normally average about 25 players online, so if you made the guild cap 25 each guild would probably average about 6 players online. Wouldnt make for great hunting, would it?

It will end up the small guilds fading out, leaving etc, left with 2 guilds battling, getting bord! Try the cap, if it don't work resort back?

You sound like you are in a guild where either a cap wouldnt effect you too much or you wouldnt mind seeing the back of some of your guildies lol.

I'm not sure how it would affect our guild but some of us prefer to play with a specific group of friends.

Also nothing stopping players creating guilds like TheFirm2 and just grouping/Allying.

tbh i've seen games with verry small guild caps
and they generaly fail bigtime
it starts off fine and you have really active guilds that do hunts with 20ppl at once etc
after a few weeks tho a few go on holidays, take time off, ...
within a few months the hunts that normaly had 20+ where canceled due to not even having 10
alternative for those guilds was to either kick anyone not logged in past 2 weeks, or simply try to solo/duo dungeons instead
both are really bad situations for community's

Keep global shouts to gm use, the guild cap could be implemented at the current max guild membership, better some cap than no cap. I don't think it is too late to do anything.

At same time, that should take care of valid concerns thedeath above here has. You get best of both worlds if you cap now at current max membership.

guild caps are awful, you make so many freinds on mir its hard to fit them in a guild with a cap.

i have fought with 3 different guilds at bosses btw.

have played servers with guild cap, doesnt work. Constant booting people who are busy to make room for those new to server/ just got back from hols/mostly come ingame to chat trade craft mine and those that only play events but are funny and lively. If you insist on a cap could you have a kind of sub section for each guild where 2nd chars (not miners) people on hols or busy irl can be transferred to temporarily and can still use guild chat?
