Wanting the best - I guess you can call it greed - try running your business or a guild with less than the best. See how long either lasts. Somebody will have to carry their weight; might as well be yourself then.
been in 5-6 Guilds on SineraniaA rather loose estimate and undocumented assumption - and fairly incorrect
Extra Guild Power (more than the rest at least) , more SoH and RoV fragments , and ofc, the "we beated them" feeling.what does positioning mean - other than pure status?
Well, it's not my experiences from all the guilds I've been in contact with.been in 5-6 Guilds on Sinerania
6+ on Noarsil
a couple on Brisgard, and few on Cirgard.
to that, you could consider, the info i have from the rest players that i talk from time to time, either for chat, or while co-operating on Battlegrounds.
(they all have attack buildings in their cities, but on activity terms, they are "assisting" not fighting as "main")
i dare that the actual analogy, is even less.. but 1/7 is accurate for the guilds i've been so far.
GvG wise, it's way smaller....
PS - see the above comment of king "somebody will have to carry" how many would you say have that role within 80 cities ? just a guess ?
last big guild i've been, #1 on Sinerania, had 2-3 "big guns" when a 5 SC sector was opening, and if 3-4-5 of the rest mortals (attack wise, replacing troops more frequently) where there with us.My own main guild currently has 53 members with maybe 15-20 of them being fairly active in GbG. No one in the guild is designated farmers.
GBG has not forced you. GBG can not force you. It is your decision. All you are doing now is using GBG as an excuse.
And yet - you are the one admittedly denying the young players from joining.You are so wrong Ice there is no choice not my choice as founder when each gbg lets say this 30 players 30% all SAV 67% mixed ages and 1 player in EMA your math is flawed where to date the 3.x % cost of ema goods is like 17.371 % ema this is sad. And yes the choice is ours but not cool to deny young players from joining this is sad.
Sure is greedy and selfish, but you risk losing good, strong, high age players, if they have to pay for low era guild members, who don't donate to treasury. They may jump to another guild, where they don't have to produce or trade for low era goods.And yet - you are the one admittedly denying the young players from joining.
So on one hand you do not think they should be denied - but on the other hand, you are more than willing to deny and ignore the young players just so you can selfishly stay at a certain ranking. If you went down a few guild ranks, it would cost you nothing. You have so many good players - well then, should also be able to afford (you or fellow guildies) to trade for those lower level goods.
Each comment you make on here just further and further shows how selfish and greedy you are - but you just keep blaming the game for your own poor behavior.

There is a financial loss somewhere if you're taking in a member that is unable to cover the cost themselves. It's an investment into the future of the guild hoping that they stick around and become a strong contributing member. It's upto each guild to decide whether it's a investment worth investing into, what they can maintain and if there should be any structure on when or how players age up to help out the treasury stock.There is no financial gain or loss on the guild position,
who in their fairplay mind will deny guild family camps? for risking hunting down EMA goods lets fix this and yes I spoke what I see. This has zero to do with 950 diamond and below but above gand it is broken.And yet - you are the one admittedly denying the young players from joining.

Mate that is an insult with all due respect you know exactly what I am saying if not ask and study top 8 to 12 guilds in each en world AGE IS ERA and you know this Respect please.Young players (beats me how you know how old they are) are not denied to join by the game, but by YOU. Game gives you plenty of opportunities to provide the needed goods. You just do not want to adapt your playstyle to do so. Your willingness to help them, stops the moment it requires any effort from your side. It is not the game or GBG that stops them from joining. It is you and your own greed. You do not play to help others. You play to help yourself. Nothing wrong with that, but do not pretend it is the game forcing you to do so.
Just my personal opinion.
nothing wrong about thatAnd yeah, those top guilds rule Diamond GBG and farm rewards and points together or fight each other for glory.
again, nothing wrong with how they decide to play their map. Though, it is "BattleGrounds" and not "PlayGrounds".Most of the top players in these top guilds are experienced, veteran players, who have spent years of time and maybe money on the game. Don't they deserve their rewarding playground in the sun for their effort?
Here is the issue, putting those weak guilds in Diamond, only causes unbalance to the whole game.Lower, weaker guilds don't have a chance against this elite club. They get squeezed, if they get close. But is that unfair? Is the game flawed and unfairly balanced because the weak guilds can't compete with the top guilds? Nah. They just need to grow up and get stronger, if they want to join the club.
However, unfortunately, as the weak guilds slowly grow stronger, some of their best GBG fighters might get bored with the mediocrity and decide to jump to the top guilds.
