Hello everyone, My name is Leon Nice to meet everyone. Aradune (Brad) has post a blog for new features and new player ideas.
Here is the link for those that wish to read it.
I have read this post and like what is being discussed, I am making the forum topic to help concentrate the ideas into one place. The Link above has a comment section but it was pretty tideous to read through the comments and see what was already posted.
(Here is my comment I made on the page already, for those of you wishing to know what I was talking about you may have to read the comments in the Link)
Rhoshan I agree with your point slightly, But when you are looking at new players... You may run into new players that have never played an MMO let alone a game before. (I have ran into people like that in RL). So making it so they automatically join the guild is a good thing, and for us more experience players we would know how to actively remove ourselves from the guild which would only take matter of seconds (unless there is a level restriction on when you can remove your self)
I also Like the idea of being able to mentor a newbie as suggested by Khrimace, Kickaha, and Aposi. I like the idea of a Higher level player being "Flagged" as someone who can help new players out from just the general basic to class specific orientation, and how the class should work. (These Flagged players should not be able to advertise their guilds, unless upon request by the new player(Other wise we will just get guilds trying to recruit and not really helping the players)

As Dullahan pointed out Leon, there are already discussions that exist on this topic and to keep them consolidated I will need to go ahead and close this thread down, so people can continue the conversation in the already existing threads, I appreciate your effort and thinking behind this post but unfortunately, they have already been created.
