Hello!



I'm the current and long-time leader of The Domination, (DOMI).



As a leader it's my duty and responsibility to look after my guild, to make sure that the stash is well kept, to make sure that nothing goes wrong.



But as a supporter, and a longer time player (longer then leader of a guild), i am absolutely appalled by how Guilds are ignored, we lack all the features that would make our life so much easier.



Firstly, i love this game, i wouldn't have spent over 2 thousand USD and almost over 8k hours playing it if i didnt. I love what GGG has done to the game in general, but unfortunately i absolutely hate GGG for ignoring a feature that is important to players



See, players want a place to socialise, to feel like they belong, mental health is a problem all around the world, people are bullied picked on, ignored, etc, and i feel like it's my duty as a guild leader to make them happy, and feel welcome, and even welcome them to the game (we get newcomers every now and then).



I recall GGG saying something about declining the idea of an auction house because that would diminish the need to talk to other players, i.e. socialise.



Why not improve the guild features, so socialising with each other can be more... well, fun?



Give us more things to play around with (i will list suggestions below).



Currently i have been taking matters into my own hands, ive made a loan system, i give out MTX's to players in the guild who have won competitions, ive made it as interactive as possible, but there's only so much that i can do with what i'm given.



So, here are my suggestions of features and QoL improvements that perhaps you, Grinding Gear Games, can consider for future updates.



- A guild hideout: A place where we can all hang out, trade each other, show off our MTX, have silly little fashion shows, and overall have a great time, and socialise.



- A guild stash log: This has been suggested so many times, but we kinda need a log soon, we often get thieves who steal from the stash. There is no way to punish these players, since we don't know who they are, give us a log system, even if its a .txt file, similar to our chat history, just give us something to we can track down these people.



- Punish thievery: This can be done by suspending players who have been caught stealing (see above suggestion), and not allowing them to join a guild for a period of time, preferably a long time, longer depending on the value of the item stolen.



- Give us our own info box/menu: So, in Diablo 3 you can view information of the clan/guild before joining them, and whilst in the guild. I want to be able to let my guild know thats happening, the rules, any upcoming events (group mapping, giveaways, lab run day, etc). There is no way at the moment to let our guild know as a whole, what is happening in the future, apart from our very small text box we can type in at the guild menu.



More suggestions from players are welcome, and i sincerely hope that GGG listens to this, as it's incredibly important to me, my guild is my family, they make me laugh when im sad, and they're all round a great bunch of people, and i only want what is best for them



Thank you for reading this (I assume only mods will read this, as developers are too busy doing developer stuff)



Have a great christmas, and an awesome new year



Much love and friendliness
