Guild List Search Option?

Alright, I first want to apologize if this has come up before. I looked but didn't see it.

I have been trying to look for specific guilds in the guild list, to identify guild names, or guild tags, or just to find what guild a player is a member of without making them a "friend". I have noticed that this requires a page by page search, which while does mean that the desired search item can be found, I believe that a Guild List Search option would be more efficient for finding what is being looked for.

As a guild leader myself. I find it hard to identify the more active players especially where guild quests are concerned. A membr column for last log in date would be nice to have as I have seen and played other games where it is in place.

I would like to see that as well. Right now the /findFriend function doesn't really do anything interesting as far as I know so maybe it can be reworked to include what RealJohnny mentioned.

Yes, a log dating is needed. for commanders and officers.

This is a classic example of the developers not playing the game. The idea that you need to search through dozens of pages of guilds hoping you come across the guild you are looking for is ridiculous. There needs to be a search option, or at the very very least, a button to alphabetize the guild names.

The only drawback to making guilds searchable is that BB never fixes anything without breaking something else, so making guild searches sane and reasonable means that they have to break some other part of the game.
