Well cuz I am home sick and verry bored I was thinking about stuff. I thought up some ideas for guilds. Some I know would be hard to do but maybe in the far future or later this year we could try them out.



1) guild uniforms


maybe if you get like 150 members or maybe it would have to be more but then you would be able to craft uniforms. Like they could all be the same. Like their would be 4 different uniforms that you could use as a template. then lets say you could add like a symbol for your guild on it and customize the colors. so you and a friend in a different guild my have the same uniform style but their would be different symbols and different colors.





2) Guild symbols.


well you see the rebal symbol or the impreial symbol if you are in either. you can see them on objects even. what if guilds could have symbols. like you get 150 members you get your own guild symbol. it could be on the other side of your faction symbol. i think that would be cool





3)Guild wars


i do know people have said this but i will say it again. I think guild wars would be sweet. like it would be icolated. like you have a certain spot to go and fight. so you would not be shot if your coming out of the city. and you could chose not to participate. it could be similar to the duel so that you are invited by a guild leader.




4) Guild Fleets

now right awayyou are like how can this happen ever. aguild having its ownfleet and trainers. that wouldbe stupid.but i mean like you can use your ships from what ever you are piloting for. so you and your guild could like have a fleet but you can still be a privateer. so the ships would not belong to the guild. i think it would be cool to have guild fleets. so like you could all team up and do stuff. this could tie into the guild wars




5) good security

now i do not know about everyone but my guild's security is crap. my harvesters get attacked every day. so i have to fix them every day. its such a pain. what if we could like get like maybe fencing around stuff so people besides guild members could not get in. or maybe we have sweet security droids and you have to pay thier maitance. then at least your harvesters whould not shut down. so like you pay for driod maitance but not harvester maitance. i think it should be an option that guild leaders can chose.




6) city councils

now this one i just thought of. what we have city councils. like there could be a poll system so we can do stuff an vote on it. i think that might be cool




7) city buff

now i know some people do it but i mean like an actually buffing station. like if you get 200 members you get a buffing station that is either cheep to all or free. idk i just thought up of that one too



8) city starports

now some of you might not like this idea but i do. my guild's city is near jaba's palace. there is not a star port anywhere near it. so maybe if you get like 200 members we could add a star port. i think it would cool and help the economy and city.



those are just some of my ideas. please do not be too harsh. i liked them. i just wanted to share them with you all.

These already are adviaible, some may argue that the system is not very good, they are still in game.

These are ideas for a city are they not. The best place for these would be on the politician forum. They would get looked at more than on this board




Some of these ideas are good though. I like the idea of guild uniforms, although you can just get a tailor to make you a set of clothes for a uniform but u can't put a symbol or anything like that on it. some good ideas though

Aye you can have guild wars. If your the guild leader check the Guild term or if your not the guild leader get the guild leader to check it or get permission to start guild wars via the term. Check the stickys this will tell you more about it.

City councils, City buff's and City starport. maybe you could have called them Guild Council, Guild Buffs and Guild starport...nah, not really fot the last one. That is defently something for a city.

  1. Have a Tailor Make your Guild a Uniform. Period

  2. You're a Rebel, Imperial or Neutral. What's wrong with these two Symbols?

  3. No offence, are you in a guild?

  4. Have your doctor buff you. Period

  5. "now i do not know about everyone but my guild's security is crap. my harvesters get attacked every day. so i have to fix them every day. its such a pain." Please Tell Me you're kidding, 60credits per hour @ 24 hours a day= 1400 credits worth of "attacks" REALLY? DO YOU PLAY THIS GAME?

  6. Six is where you must have slipped 5 doses of cough drops because you go way off Topic.

If you actually think that there will ever be a Player Controled Starport, You might wanna think about what "real" cities would be used for then.... Nothing?!?!? They have to serve a purpose, otherwise just wipe them off the map & let us really take this game into our own hands (and ruin) this game.

This is something we would love to see as well and it's in our wishlist of items. I don't think it should be restricted to only guilds with a huge size though, it should be a feature of guilds that everyone can enjoy.

Guild wars are currently in game and can be turned on or off through the guild terminal with the right permissions. When a war is engaged on both sides everyone in each guild becomes attackable to each other, so we usually recommend that you pick wisely who you go to war with otherwise your crafters or entertainers may be killed, since they are also attackable.



4) Guild Fleets

now right awayyou are like how can this happen ever. aguild having its ownfleet and trainers. that wouldbe stupid.but i mean like you can use your ships from what ever you are piloting for. so you and your guild could like have a fleet but you can still be a privateer. so the ships would not belong to the guild. i think it would be cool to have guild fleets. so like you could all team up and do stuff. this could tie into the guild wars


This is also something we've heard and I think that having organized space fleets would be nice as well. Especially if it was tied into guild wars.




5) good security

now i do not know about everyone but my guild's security is crap. my harvesters get attacked every day. so i have to fix them every day. its such a pain. what if we could like get like maybe fencing around stuff so people besides guild members could not get in. or maybe we have sweet security droids and you have to pay thier maitance. then at least your harvesters whould not shut down. so like you pay for driod maitance but not harvester maitance. i think it should be an option that guild leaders can chose.


Harvesters and structures actually can not be attacked by other players, but you do have to pay to maintain them. Depending on the structure type it will cost anywhere from 30 credits an hour to 100 credits an hour. Just make sure they are paid up through the structure and you shouldn't have any trouble.



6) city councils

now this one i just thought of. what we have city councils. like there could be a poll system so we can do stuff an vote on it. i think that might be cool

These next three fall into the category of cities more so than guilds. On the guild side though, we have asked for a type of guild structure like Councils to be implemented for those guilds who use that type of structure. As for buffs, I don't think that's very feasible because that is a feature of an actual profession and if you made them available though an NPC or city feature it would hurt the Doctor profession since that is a primary income for them in the game and that wouldn't be a good thing.


At the same time, City Starports is something a lot of cities would like to see. I don't know if they will be added or not, but we sure can hope they are one day. It's just a matter of being able to spend the time to create them and also come up with a fair way to implement them. I would try discussing this in the politician forum as they could probably get you to add to any other discussions they have going on there about Starports.



those are just some of my ideas. please do not be too harsh. i liked them. i just wanted to share them with you all.






Ideas are always welcome here, so feel free. I would suggest reading our wishlist thread stickied at the top so you'll know some of the other things we've talked about in the past and feel free to comment on them in that thread too if you want to add additional details.

i


it was just an idea. and yeah i am in a guild. and hey if you own a bunch of harvesters and use alot of your creds to help new players it adds up. the harvesters shut down and then u have to get back to them wich is hard when i am on the other side of the galaxy. and a doctor buffing you. thats a waste of money. some guilds have doctors do it for free and i wish i did. i was just giving my opinion
