I still don't see why anyone is still arguing with the OP. When someone has the viewpoint of:
"We are casual players and a casual guild and we don't want to change that, BUT we want the rewards that only can only be achieved by powergamers... but we don't want to be known as powergamers because that is a "bad word" to us."
Well, then you aren't going to change their mind... it's completely illogical.
It's the same as saying "I am a casual gamer and can only play about 1 hour a day, and I see other players leveling to 20 in 2 days. I should have some in-game mechanic that allows me to level 20 in 2 days as well... otherwise the in-game rules are inherently unfair to me... a casual gamer and the current mechanics only benefits those who "powergame".
This is just insulting.
If I seem rude, I'm sorry, I just have strong feelings about this game, since I've only played two games in the last few years., and this is my only multiplayer game. I'm much nicer in game.
