Ideas to add to player Guilds in game

I have a few issues that I have come across in regards to the guild and the guild bank.
Guild:
1) History of events is too short and is wiped after a very short time. When players leave the guild for example, it only shows the very recent and for a very short time (2/4 hours?). As an officer in a guild, this is important information that I believe should be available for at least 7 days (or even 30), even if it creates history pages.
This also goes for bank history, as, due to another issue to be discussed below, the history fills up quickly and may only show the last hour at most.
2) There should be more than 4 ranks total. Most guilds have more than this (especially as one of them is a guild leader rank, which our guild doesn't even have).
3) Permissions should be totally customizable and other ranks should be able to change rank permissions if we so desire. At this time only the leader can do this, even if he wishes otherwise. Let the default be as is, but at least let it be an option, or let more than one person hold a guild leader rank (the name of which could be changed).
4) Please allow for an option in mail to send out a message to all guild members. The message of the day is okay, but very limited and not all guild members are going to check, but they are likely going to read a mail message if it is sent to them.
5) Another option is to have the 'Message of the Day" show up in the chat box when a player first logs on.
Guild Bank:
6) Please have it so that items automatically stack when deposited in the bank. Currently I have to take items out (because you cannot drag stacks together in the bank itself which would also be a nice additional feature), combine the stacks and then deposit them back. This is not only time consuming but also fills up the bank history as stated in point 1) above.
7) It would be nice to have a gold lending system in the guild bank. Right now a few of our officers in the game are holding gold that can be lent to other guild members but we are going to have to handle this on our website rather than directly in game. To have an option where this gold can be deposited in the guild bank and then loans can be requested perhaps with possible automatic interest options would be a great feature. Perhaps it could be added to another tab where a player puts in how much they want to borrow and then an officer can approve it. The money is then lent out via automatic mail (with acceptance of the loan and interest agreement attached which is binding when they take the attachment) and when that player goes to the tab in the guild bank they will see how much they owe and can pay back in parts or all at once and it will show their current loan and interest.
At the very least a guild should be able to deposit and keep their gold there rather than us having to hold it ourselves.
Thank you so much for reading. Please consider these, at least in part.
