In the wrong hands people would quit the guild and that's why any feature to disallow guilds PMs is pointless.
I can easily see poll guilds getting paid to put links to threads, other guilds, shops... ect, in thier letters. But since the gold update and the decreasing ammounts, those guilds aren't very usefull, so if done incorrectly people would just quit the guild. If they wanted to be in a gold guild, they just find one of the thousands of others.
From the first post, it appears that we have yet to recieve a reply.
I bet you'll get the same reply the admin give us, maybe in the fall. However, that is likely just when we'll get our devs back, and to get an update worth anything we will need to be patiant and wait for a few months. My guess is that we'll be assholes and they'll give us a half-baked feature or five, and they'll all suck and be riddled with problems.

churrlo I second what metallic says blaugh And I feel that captains of the larger guilds are surely more responsible and wouldn't abuse the system... I would hope anyways gonk Accually, I was trying to say that big guilds are more likly to abuse it, like as a way to make gold, by getting paid to send out a guild PM with links to threads and shops.
However, a fee that charges per member in the guild, instead of a set rate every time you send one out, would raise the cost of advertising, and as I said before, the members could just quit the guild if they cared, forcing guild captains to think and make the PM correctly.
I highly doubt the devs would ever allow a non captain/VC to send the PMs.
If they come out with an option to not recieve the PMs I will be voicing my complaints. Especailly if it's just captians and VCs able to send them, to get annoied by the guild PMs, and asking them to not do it so much doens't work, it's not a guild that that person should be in, especailly since each guild is an anarchy and if you don't like the king(captain) you can't really enjoy the guild.

I like 5g per member per PM. So if a guild had 15 members, and the captain didn't omit anyone (assuming we can) the cost from the guild account would be 75g. Not bad, and I liked how a lot of people were whining about this amount.
1K members = 5K gold to send out the PM
10K members = 50K gold.
(The 10K+member guilds tend to have a TON of gold in the guild accoutn any way.)
I think the hesitation of implimenting this, is it would be using gold that has basically left gaia (gold sink) but it's not like it's coming back, and I sure just enough guilds would abuse this when it comes out, too fast for the members to imediatly quit, and quickly deplete the guild funds.
As I said before, I'm extremely against a profile option to not recieve guild PMs. If someone can't just ask the captain to stop, or come to an agreement with the captain, they shouldn't be in the guild because guilds are anarchys and require all people in it to get allong to some extent, or just lurk/never enter the guild.
