Well the comments from Wednesday livestream were disheartening concerning this topic. Seems the Dev's think GMS is only about guild ranks... so it seems NO Dev has read this thread.
I did my best. The horse is dead. Time to find another horse.

Mounting this horse. Would much rather see a guild coordination revamp than any more guild levels/new ships or buffs. Channels could also use a rework and could be tied into this system, I'd personally like to see a lot more visibility for our raid channel and have that tied into our guild panel.
I would love a system like you suggest. Even if they only did 50% of it. The biggest problems I see as a guild leader are the following:
Hard to recruit - I believe a system that you describe would go a long way to helping this. I would also like to see a way that new players get information about guilds when they travel to the harbour for the first time.
Able to sort by account - We allow as many alts as a person wants in our guild and it is very hard to keep track of who is who
/signed very well thought out
Yes, I like these ideas.
I also would like to see the max characters in a guild increased, my guild currently has a separate guild just for "reserves".
Yep - that is what this suggestion is all about - not new guild levels or ships or buffs, but just a better guild system period (or finish the one in place).
agree.
Sorry - don't remember the specifics, but thought it was one of those with like 4-5 Dev's and Cordovan, would have been the one the week prior to my comment.
Thank you.
Thank you. I am guessing there are technical limitations to the number in a guild - but if they did even a partial upgrade to the guild system, then that should be easy for them to look at and see if they could increase. At the same time, I believe they want to encourage small guilds, and having the max increased might go contrary to that since it might be taken as to encourage super mega guilds. :P
A simple change I was pondering was a small addition to the Character sheet-
A field for alt of ....
When some one logs in to game, a message in guild chat appears, XXX has logged in.
If the alt of field is filled out on the character sheet it would say.... XXX, alt of YYY has logged in.
A simple update that would help guild member's know who was who if they wanted to...
Ranks within the guild. Guild Leader, 1st officer, 2nd Officer. Commander of Knights, Commander, lieutenant, Private.
Restore AA rangers back to their original state. I WANT MEH OLD SLAYING ARROW BACK! Restore Manyshots to the way it was b4.
I would then move on to fixing what we already have. Instead of making new stuff or making old stuff epic I would concentrate on bugs and Lag
I like the idea of custom ranks, especially a setting for who can open guild chests.
Nice work OP, good ideas!
My request for current system is this:
Add Button: Tell
Remove Buttons: Resign, Disband (those buttons aren't needed and are very scary for guild leader, especially when your mouse bugs out or when you are tired and might miss click and confirm)
Options like Resign or Disband should be available only in command line.
I could support some of the stuff you're asking for. I don't think there is a need for the "FIND GUILD" tab, simply use the existing guild tab for finding a guild if you're not currently in one. Once I'm in a guild, I'm not looking and don't want to see that tab cluttering my interface. I could probably support News/Information and Settings although I'm not convinced of a need for events or separation of News/Info.
Some really good ideas here. I like the ranking of officers, this would help with the guilds who have had leaders stop playing without turning the leadership over. It would have to include if the leader is not online for say 30, maybe 45 days.
They should sell the new management system like they sell airships, that way they can make money off it
