Very nice list and interesting to see how things panned out. Hopefully they can at least work on some of this for us since it does effect a large majority of the game.

Looks good and a few of my top 10 requests ended up high on the list so yay. Great job Jas and hopefully TH will be able to get back to us semi soon about how likely some of these things are or when they are scheduled to pop out.
Oh and #34, /move up, is actually being implemented in the next publish (after the one coming out in a week) if you want to remove it just so all of you guys know.

If you are new to this ongoing process please review the brainstorming thread and voting thread to see how we came upon these results.
Thank you all for giving your input. I'm sorry it took so long to compile the results! It was a bigger job than I realizedso I decided to improve my perl skills and write a script to parse your answers and compute the results. Maybe myself or other correspondents will be able to reuse the script someday. 
Disclaimer: Now, before I list the results let me remind everyone that the Developers will probably NOTimplement our requeststo the letter. Some items may be easier to code so they will go in first. Other items might be half-complete already so they will go in first. Still other items might have balance or coding issues that keep them from being implemented at all.
The goal of this exercise was to give the devs a clear picture of what we want, and how much we want it. I think we all achieved that, so congratulations! I have emailed the results to Thunderheart. I hope the answers to the 10 questions I submitted will give us some sort of timeline on when we can expect further development for Player Associations.
Okay, /end speech

Although there are a fair amount of things I don't think are all that importand up near the top and some things I like down at the bottom...
I think this process has been terrific.
Excellent job, Jascentia.

I'd rather have these 2 combined into the guild tab within the Community(ctrl p) page. Being in a guild with all 3 factions i regulary send email to 1 faction or another. With how often my friends list loses all my grp's and comments i would relish a place where faction was sticky and autoupdated that i could send email from. Or maybe a guild mail option of guild /rebel, guild /imp, guild /neutral. Kinda alittle late for the suggestion i know but just a thought.

When can players expect to see some of the requested changes happen?
(i.e. guild halls taking up less lots or the storage cpacity being adjusted to fit the amounts of lost it takes up)
