Social And Display Name Functions Are Disabled On This Server

When I join a server I see the message, "Social and display name functions are disabled on this server". Is this from the guilds being down or is something else going on? :/

    Noticed this on my end, too.

    This isn't related to the issue with Guilds being disabled as I don't even have a guild for it to being doing that. This message shouldn't be displaying at all. Their server is essentially sending this message out to people when no one has done anything to warrant the message and both social and display name functions are working perfectly fine.

    In the past when they've disabled Guild functionality or even sending mail messages, they've done so without this error message displaying. Frankly put, I'm beginning to think the updates they've been running are messy edits to existing game code that could be causing the issues we're having now. I can't say for sure what could be causing this to happen, but if the server is already skipping over lines of coding for objects to load properly and resulting in a CTD, then anything is possible at that point.

    It honestly feels as if we're all still beta testing this game.

    This is becoming annoying. It keeps popping up on my screen constantly.

    When this pops up during game play, my character pauses which isn't nice. :( I get this after every wayshrine and exit from home, dungeon, etc. Repair is not the answer... been there done that.

    This message is appearing because guild functionality is disabled. That said, it shouldn't be popping up constantly, unless you're continuously trying to send messages using guild chat. Do you folks mind trying to disable your addons to see if this resolves the issue?

    Thanks for the reply. I don't use any addons and I haven't used any type of chat at all today. Knowing it isn't a game issue is a relief and again thank you for the reply. :)

    I only get this to show when I first login the game.

    We aren't doing any Guild commands or chatting this does pop up over and over again once you log into the game.

    I tried changing m settings but now I see its not me its the Guild feature....sigh...its bad enough I can only log in via compatibility mode...and now this.

    I'm an idiot for purchasing game time in chunks
