Gaian Guild Suggestions - Gaia requests your input!!

[iMito]

So Gaia has asked Gaian Moderators for ideas and I want to ask you guys for your input.

Gaia is looking for new ways for guilds to spend the gold sitting in our treasury aside from sending guild announcements. This is something we've been waiting on for a while because there's so much that could be done!

The only requirement for the idea is that it can't be something exploitable by the guild captain or other crew members.

I look forward for your ideas.

Also, feel free to include ideas that might be free. I'll relay them as well.

I'll start:

New, Create-able Position Titles with editable access to certain subforums. (For example: In this forum, we might have an event planning committee who would have access to a Planning Subforum.)

Guild Chat through the new Meebo Toolbar.

Option to block non-users. This could be useful in a guild like ours where we like to keep public posting open, but we have no way of stopping a troll, or just a jerk, from posting non-stop in our guild.

I was going to say the same for new positions.

EDIT: I feel like the current hierarchy of guilds is pointless, since guild populations are pretty much "Members-With-Editing-Powers" and "Members-Without-Editing-Powers"

Yes but if everyone could edit posts then someone might go around editing other peoples posts, which would cause havoc...

I like your ideas, but i don't see how they relate to the money left in the guild treasury...

I never said everyone should have the power to edit... I simply stated that guild populations, in regards to leadership positions, are black and white; there are only two categories: the crew and the rest of the members. I actually support the idea of lessening the powers of particular crew members [including myself].

And, in my defense, I tamper with posts all the time. But I'm just doing my job as a crew member, making sure the posts here are relatively friendly.

Not all of them do. Just the one with the new positions, as the guilds would have to pay for the new positions.

A guild fund for rewards would be nice. Say a user does a job, you could reward them from the guild funds.
Tip system, kinda.
