Guild Tag Support

Mar 04, 2004 roguelazer link
I know that full guild support is on its way. But this one little thing could prevent impersonators (like [INM]Phoenix and Durgia[INM). Just... guild tag support. You are invited as you are to a group, and your nick has the guild tag appended. You guys [devs] don't even need to put in anything else, just auto-tag support. Please?

just one point Durgia[INM] is not an imposter. I moved the tag to the back for tab complete purposes:P

Well, it's not the official method and it only confuses things. And [INM]Phoenix is an impostor (phoenix was kicked out), so my point still stands.

I think the tag should go at the end...all guilds should consider this. And, I agree...tag support or some other method for ridding the game of imposters is needed.

The SDF is currently running underground due to the fact we had many [SDF] tagged impostors in our ranks. We are currently awaiting the arrival of some sort of In-game Guild Support so that we may again emerge at full strength and show our true numbers to the public.

As for the attaching the name tag on the end, it has been suggested before but that would involve several HUNDRED man hours to close down those chars, transfer the money, recontact and update websites, bot and PK to get back the original's score and reputation and to get word out to ALL guild members and to all incoming members as well as to the general public.

The idea is a sound one but isn't feasible for large scale guilds such as teh SDF. I do encourage it though for startup guilds since it is much easier on the TAB key command.


As for the whole Tag support issue. I like it but I must admit I dont entirely understand how it would work.

who cares about score and pk's. they are just numbers.

Now tracking all over the friggin galaxy to sell all the misc equipment i have floating around would suck, but moving the tag to the end isnt actually a bad idea. Unfortunately theres nothing that can be done about Impostors at this time.

umm and black1 the tag support concept is the idea that your guild tag is seperate from your name. It works kinda like the auto-ops on IRC. the server (vendetta) keeps track of who is supposed to have the tag, and only certain people in the guild can add/remove members from the list of people that are allowed to have them.
