EU Traders Guild

Dawgound01 · June 24

I had submitted a request to join this guild and put in application "Looking for a Trading Guild and also place for trading recipes, motif and styles" . A day or two later I was accepted. I went to the guild store and loaded up around 20 items to sell, donated $5K in gold and some items into the guild bank. I tried then trading some recipes and noticed mot allowed to withdrawal. I messaged the guild master and Thanked him for accepting my application and asked about being able to trade recipes, motiff's and styles. I logged back in the following day and noticed 19 items in my expired mail(guess sold some) and was kicked out of the guild no explanation or reply why but he kept the items and gold donated. Not sure what is up with this guild and what they thought I did?

I'd suggest removing the name of the guild or this post is going to get yoinked for Name & Shame.

In our guild, we found that an "open" guild bank became mostly a repository for junk people didn't want and required officer volunteer time to keep it cleaned out. That, combined with no permissions other than "can take nothing" and "can take everything" led us to turning deposit & withdrawal rights off and just using it to store auction & raffle items.

As for the communication between you and the GM, that's hard to comment on but it's clear you weren't a good fit for each other. Plenty of great guilds out there.

If your going to be listed under Trading as a Trading guild then you should offer it. Just because some have it others might not and it's a great area to exchange out items like recipes, drawings, mats etc. Should be able to list the guild so doesn't happen to others. I wasn't putting a players name up.

It useally requires you to have donated a certain amount of gold to Guild to be able to withdraw items from the Guildbank.

If anyone got access to guildbank at day 1 with no donations required the guildbank could be robbed of all the items.

But if you just asked about guildbank you shouldnt have been kicked unless you undercut players with your sales, someone comes in and starts undercutting at day 1 useally get kicked without warning.

"Trading Guild" in ESO refers to having an active guild store (with or without renting a kiosk).

I've never seen it defined as "access to trade items in the guild bank". Nothing wrong with you preferring that and there are guilds out there that allow for it.

For a lot of GM's a person asking for guild bank access shortly after joining throws up a big red flag, unfortunately too many of us have been on the wrong end of someone emptying the bank and immediately leaving the guild

Also in future if you join a guild many of them will state bank access requirements in their MotD/About Us on the guild homepage, reading that on joining can help alleviate future misunderstandings.
