I was wondering if guilds could be updated. We could add cash options to buying guilds, forums and sending announcements. We could also increase the amount of gold needed to buy guilds, forums and sending announcements so it could also sink more gold. Guilds are very dated, people want a tipping option and it would be nice if we could delete old forums. This petition has a lot of ideas for guild updates. Would this be possible to do in the future?


I think we can help with some of the easier stuff such as deleting old forums. For the time being I have a few big pain points I wish to tackle first. Things like the announcement spam, hyper inflation, amongst other things.

Why are astra items making users invisible in guilds?


I'll need to check on that, it might have some flash related properties that breaks it.

Will guilds be getting an update? Like, perhaps getting to post in guilds like a regular thread; for example: dice rolls, RNG, tipping posts, etc?


Things like tipping is something I can add, dice rolls and RNG are part of the new forum system and will take a lot longer to implement. I love guilds and would like to see a refresh in the near future.

It'll be along other features that Gaians will get to pick on what to build next. Stay tuned for more updates!

Neshira Namea Returns
Features - Guilds

Are we going to be seeing an update to guilds at all in 2017? They're painfully outdated and I know a lot of the features need upgrades and would generate more interest. For example:
-Ability to delete subforums
-Mass move/delete options (via checkbox) for threads
-"Delete all threads in this subforum"
-Raise the prices for guilds and subforums (gold sink!)
-Make sure quoting works 100% in guilds (it doesn't always)
-Allow us to set alerts for guilds the way we can set alerts to be notified if our subbed threads receive a new reply
-Guild look update (Let the captains change the guild backgrounds and such)

And so much more that can be done! <3


With so much on our plate, I don't think I can do a complete re-write for guilds, but I can sure do a couple of updates to keep it working better. I'll be collecting some feedback on what do people want the most and tackle them one by one.

I know they are on the docket, but is there an approximate date on when to expect some fixes for guilds?


End of this month I'll post another survey on what features you'd like to see for Guilds. Meanwhile, there are a few big ticket items for me to take care of.

Custom Ranks for clans/guilds, and being in charge of privileges of those ranks. Maybe even turn it into a gold sink, or use the gold from the clan/guilds account to buy the new custom ranks.

We can take a look into it!

Can Gaia add the option to tip posts in clans and guilds?


Not easily. If I add it, it won't have the notification that show up above the post.

Features (Guilds)

Whenever I try to update my guild's homepage, the BBCode gets messed up -- for example, any emotes on the homepage will become text alone (i.e. gaia_star will simply become the word "star"). I now format the guild homepage in a separate post before copying + pasting it back into the editing box, but that's a nuisance. Is there any way that this can be looked into? Many thanks!

We'll take a look into it because we thought it had been fixed.

Diabolical Donut
Features (Guilds)

Hey, I have been meaning to bring this up at the ask admit for a while, but I always seem to miss it by an hour. I was wondering if anything could be done to fix up the guilds a bit? The forum is so squished together that coding that works just fine in CB or regular forums don't fit and get squashed in guilds. Or it will break the forum and stretch the entire page out. Me and my friend use guilds for role playing but a lot recently we have been noticing this a lot more. Is there any way to fix this?


Please provide some URL to actual posts where formatting is broken and I can have a look and see what is happening. Unfortunately I usually don't have the time to scan through a feature to find the bug that is being mentioned, sorry!

Would it be possible to get thread tipping into guilds?


Yes, I'll be adding it the next time I work on Guilds. For now we're working on a lot of inventory related features.

god n1t30wl xiii ssc
features: gaia app
can we get a link to guilds in the app? after all guilds have been brought up to the same coding as regular forums right? and there in the app. so can we get guilds on there too? maybe get some more attention to them


Maybe eventually. We certainly want to bring as much as Gaia as we can into the app. Right now we are focusing on Inventory, Dress Up, Shops and Forums. After those 4 are done we can think about what comes next.

god n1t30wl xiii ssc
features: ignore system
even if you ignore someone you still get guild announcements from them if you're in there guild. can someone please explain why this is possible when all other features of the ignored person are blocked? i have received them from users on ignore and others have received them from me on ignore so i know this can happen. can this be fixed somehow so if you have someone on ignore they cant receive your guild announcements?


Sounds like a bug. I'll add it to the bug list, should be an easy fix.

Since the site is being updated and fixed, I was thinking about what will happen to clans and guilds since zOMG! is now back. I know the Staff are entirely busy, especially the Developers right now (Great work everyone!!), although could guilds be put into a list of low priority updates in the future?

Honestly guilds are dying more and more, and at least some confirmation of updates would be nice!

Honestly has thought about using gimp or some other art program to design concepts of what the new guild pages would look like, but I know to wait and isn't my place.


Yes guilds is very updated [I think he meant 'outdated'. -Platonix] in design, and we'll need to do a lot to improve it. More likely we'll have a much better looking mobile version out, then we will go back and work on a new web version.
