Option to show Guild Master at Guild Traders

Giraffon

I think it would be a nice feature to allow guilds the option of displaying the Guildmaster's @info.

Basically it would be a checkbox in the guild menu: "Show Guild Master at Trader"

If checked, then the name of the guild and the guild master for that guild would be shown. So if Speechless has a trader in Craglorn then in addition to sales, I might be able to grow my guild a little by showing @giraffon as the GM. If someone wants to join they could send me a message that way. If I don't want to be bothered I just leave the box unchecked.

Not really seeing the value in this, and I do see some serious risks for harassment.

The value is if you are recruiting or looking to join a guild. If you don't like it, leave the check box unmarked.

This place never disappoints when it comes to suggesting changes to anything related to guild traders.

I've had people message me (as a seller) to ask who they should request guild membership from. I don't see the harm (and do see the potential benefits) of allowing guilds to designate an @name to display as a guild contact. If a guild wants to recruit that way, they choose an account and check the box, if not, they leave it unchecked. For those that have a trader it might be more convenient than using zone.

Or, instead an option where the player can post a message asking for an invite that designated members of the guild get. So it does not even have to be the GM, but it probably would be. But, no names would be displayed to the general public. This could be toggle off by the GM if they prefer to recruit other ways.

That would facilitate the communication, and filter the harassment attempts
