For some guilds which have few active members, it is becoming more and more difficult to get our toons tagged.
I don't know if it's technically possible but hey I thought that if there would be a pillar where we could with one of our toon who is already guild tag click on it then log on our toon that we want to guild tag go there and click so that it is guild tag of the same guild. This would avoid annoying each time a member who has the guild tag rod, but also as in my case where for some time I have been the only one in the realm marshal guild which is active, and as I do not play multi account I obviously can't tag my own toons even if I had a rod

Not that it eases tagging others but you can always activate the pillar, relog with your desired character and join the guild. So you can tag yourself.

Ask a friend to port and be a place holder. You’re dependent on someone else but it does work. I’ve done exactly that with my own toons.

Doesn't that defeat the whole point of rod holders and control in the guild completely? By this practice, as long as you are in a guild, you can freely tag anyone else to be in the guild. Note I'm connecting the dots on that, but if you have someone hold your place in the example above, you can just as easily have the friend tag themselves, and once they have tagged themselves, they can tag anyone else. I'm not debating, nor declaring an opinion on that, just pointing out that currently control of who is in and not in the guild is done by way of rodholders. The change proposed would remove that control, or at least introduce a glaring hole in the security currently available. |

I am speaking of a universal pillar for all the guild who when you click on it with your guild tag toon, he keep in memory your account name and the guild tag your toon have, and when you log back with another of your toon of the same account name it give you the same guild tag as your toon who click on at first Probably about in the same mecanic who could be in use for the Reincarnation at the light. but instead of to keep in memory the xp, all the tags and all the bound items it keep the guild tag. |

Right but again this need to ask the help of someone. but over this like for my part, i am the only one member who is active and you know what, i dont even have a guild tag rod to do the way you suggesting. In my point of view what i suggest could be a good and easy avenue to make things easyer and not just for me. |

I see. That does make sense to me, but it also still has some control issues when a guild wants a user to leave the guild, but the user keeps tagging more toons. I have often wondered at having account tagging rather than character tagging as well as it seems this could clear up some maintenance issues (like always having to tag your toons). I'm not sure why it would or wouldn't be a good or bad idea. Most guilds want you to be exclusively part of their guild anyways. |

I think it’s reasonable if after a period of inactivity, a rod could be given to a guild member for a guild that has no active rod holders. The alternative is you force active players to join new homes or create new homes. Why go through all that work when one can leverage an existing resource?
Guild leaders are defined when created and someone is defined as the leader. If such a time arises where that person returns? Maybe you delete some rods then.

We've had problems in the past and even recently with guild leaders being AWOL so long that the few remaining members start fighting over whose guild it is now and getting very upset when a DM hands out a guild rod to someone they don't want in "their" guild anymore.
We probably need to draw up new guild guidelines that follow set procedures/protocols for handing out rods and who actually is in charge if the leader has been gone for year/s.
