Guild withdrawal penalty

[matthijsknigge]

Hi,

I decided to create a character on server eu-west. Like everyone I want to join/create a guild to make friends, play together, the multiplayer part. However, there are almost no active guilds. And common language used is not specified in the two guilds I joined. Based on not being able to commute I left. And now I'm facing a 16 day withdrawal penalty.

Why such a heavy penalty?

Kind regards,

Matthijs

Each time you leave a guild the penalty increases. Idk if/when it resets. They shouldn't penalize the first 2 or 3 guild hops it's dumb.

Choices Matter. Your next penalty will be closer to 30ish days.

Nothing better than joining a "dead" guild without an active leader, no research, no weekly tasks and no future and getting a "guild joining ban" after leaving it.

Guild stuff is stupid in this game, just outright anti-player stuff

From dead guilds to leave penalities to jerk GM's who raise bloodstone contribution to 300 to force players to either do extra tasks in the week or donate real gold/medals to hit

BUT getting into a good guild is night/day on the experience you will have

My advice is try your best for a 'real' guild on your main and just make a guild yourself for your alts to join together and just donate into that instead of one of the above bad experiences

It dosnt make sense with such a cooldown for leaving a guild. Its just gonna make even more people leave the game.

penalty is too high for no reason i would say. tell me what is the problem with changing the guild every 2 weeks after it is not working out for you.

yeah, they are WAY to heavy handed on the penalty for leaving a guild, i think the reason for it is to prevent bloodstone abuse, but the penalty is just plain absurd, make it 24-48 hours instead and lock it at that forever and there you go, a system that prevents bloodstone abuse, hell, they coudl even make the bloodstones guild bound, meaning your accumulated bloodstones is lost when you leave the guild if they are concerned there could exist some kind of abuse there as well. pretty much anything is better then the absurd level of punishment we recieve currently.

as it stands now the system punish you for leaving a dead guild, my current guild had in its prime 20-25 active players daily, leader and officers was on daily, guild was social and actively did dungeons and raids daily, and then with zero warning, within 3-4 days we went from 20-25 active players to 5, officers and leader has not been on for over a week, im essentially the only one who has been on our discord for nearly a week, and all this happened a day or two before i got gear to join daily dungeon and raid activities...
if i leave i'm missing out on bloodstone rewards, if i stay i'm stuck in a guild shop lvl. 2 guild with no weekly guild tasks to do.

hate to see what the penalty is after 30 days.. 6 months, 1 year ? More guilds you leave, the more ♥♥♥♥♥♥ you are

Which guild leaders can kick them from guild for?

Still not seeing how a multi-day penalty for manually leaving a guild helps anyone

I can understand 24hr cooldown for bloodstones, but nothing more than that

You must be new to MMO'S! Someone that cares only to benefit their self by guild hoping they can farm Guild resources extremely fast!

The Devs can put a 'you can only claim bloodstones once per day' cooldown on them if that would be the reason for anyone to guild hop?
