Why I'm glad the rewards for the new guild quest suck - and my guild pet peave

First if I'm gonna talk about guilds I have to whine about my pet peave regarding guilds

No sound when someone types in guild chat, arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrg, there should be sound, I've seen people get angry because no one replied to their request for help in guild chat, no one saw it cause there is NOTHING when someone types in guild chat, the place where we need community most...

You can't carry on a conversation cause when you reply to someone they may not wander through the guild tab (and they certainly won't be informed by a sound) for another hour. The fact the guild chat has no sound is holding back guilds in my opinion...

Better yet allow us to choose the sound made when someone posts in guild chat

Why am I glad the rewards for guild quests suck?

Cause the whole idea of guild quests builds into the game the idea that you kick people who aren't active on an everyday basis

Already in my guild people are asking anyone who shows up in the guild chat if they have completed the quest, of course they are offering to help, cause I have an awesome guild, but there is also talk of KICKING PEOPLE...

Anything that encourages people to kick people out of their guilds isn't good

I'm glad the prizes are so sucky that we don't have to get all salty with someone just cause they only play once a week...

Some people in my guild aren't happy that people aren't completing the quest even with these crappy prizes, it would only be worse if the prizes were better

Guilds are supposed to be about community and helping each other, not kicking people out in my opinion, and if the prizes were better guilds all through the server would be kicking people out of their guilds even more than they prob already are.

Buck the trend, don't kick people out of yr guild, click the cancel button on the guild quest.

Peace love and bacon grease...

Sonic, i am guild leader for Dragonshield and to date i have cancelled every single guild quest-i give all my members until the next morning to complete it-if they haven't it is understood that it was a sucky quest. I don't expect my members to complete a quest that is bad as i also don't boot members due to inactivity as i have a few are in school, have to work etc and i take their rl situations into account. I also wholeheartedly agree these guild quests are horrid-I only hope the devs listen to our complaints and either pull them or fix them :D

The latest daily quest which appears to be tied into the guild quest called "Hungry Chickens" is automatically taking (make available means: You worked hard to reach that goal so now we will simply steal it from you so you have to work twice as hard to replace it) 1500 bread, 3000 fish, and making me raise my wheat to 5500. The green lighted bars are already filled on everything except the wheat. It will take my resources as soon as my wheat comes up...but I am going to sell sell sell my wheat. All of that for only 10 gold coins and 5 pieces of granite! I already have 10 gc and the granite.

This is ridiculous!! I am not buying these heavy handed guild quests or daily quests are going to "balance out" when the other things come online. :mad:

[TC]'s chat is busy nearly 24/7, having a sound kick every time a player says something would drive us all batty.

As for the guild quests, we're currently just canceling them.

Great to hear your opinion, anyone think guild adventure would be a good idea?

The guild quests which have "make available" are terrible asking for large amounts of resources & the rewards is something like 10gc & no XP. You have to be joking if you think that players are going to give up their resources for that!
I can't believe that these were thought out by a human being & surely have been randomly selected by a program, they are an insult to our intelligence & abilities. The fact that you have to get many so members to complete them is a bad idea, it puts pressure on all members who will chase down those who are not active in the guild chat & causes friction which is not what we need in this game.
Get rid of the guild quests because they are not workable & will only bring problems, there are better things to do than chase up other guild members to make sure they are giving up resources for such a small reward. Mine today was "Make 4000 real wood available from your storage" Reward is 10gc. No way in hell am I am going to give 4k Hard Wood Logs away for a measly 10gc!.

I have a real issue here. I just joined a guild. yesterday my guild had to supply me with everything including materials to upgrade my storage because the request was so unreasonable. Today... I would need to be at level 23 to complete quest and i am only level 18. this makes no sense. these should be doable by me not just by my guild members. I am not capable of making steel but i need to have 200 steel. You need to work on this, please! I agree with all above. And sound would be nice on whisper. that way it would not be constant but people would have a way to get your attention if they needed to. Well, hope the devs are reading.

well a true guild quest should be about a total amount for a guild to give not each member giving the same amount. It is much more difficult for a lvl 20 to give the same amount as a lvl 40 and they have a harder time rebuilding the resources. So lets ask the team to change guild quests or get rid of them.

Quests should not cost us anything except time. The "make available" and unreasonable guild quests do nothing except rip us off.

Guild adventures would be excellent if they don't cost us so much in casualties that it is not worth doing them. After seeing what they did with the guild quests....I almost hate to think what they could do to the adventures.

I have enjoyed this game because of the people and it is fun most of the time for a game with no real point to it as there is no competition. With the guides, there is no real challenge to it. I guess the challenge comes in by being able to support your army and island while the developers steal our resources and offer little in the way of rewards. Are we having fun yet?!

We do not even know who completed the guild quest....and i have all the supplies ready for the waiting quest and there is no option to complete it. Whats going on?
