This would be nice indeed!

I'd like to see ZOS give the guild master the ability to blacklist a player's account from future invites to the guild. This would allow the GM to keep out people who have left or been kicked under negative circumstances (such as spying for other guilds) while not restricting the GM's ability to allow his members to invite others. Plus, in the future, the kicked player would no longer be able to just ask for an invite on another character. And after so long, how will the GM or all of his members know who all shouldn't be invited? Adding this ability would fix that, notifying a member who tries to invite a blacklisted player that he has been banned from the guild. Any thoughts?

How are jerks getting back into your guild?

You can make notes on players.

If it's a guild where anyone has the capability to invite new members I could easily see it happening. People might invite someone without having any idea that they were previously members and had caused problems.

That's why there's a sign up process to get into my guild. We don't just accept anyone, and we have a process to help weed out undesirables. It's not a perfect system that totally prevents trolls from joining, but it does turn away a lot of bads.

In guild, we see them by their account name, and will see one or more of their character names, depending on how many they log onto while we're there. There's no telling what character they'll be on when they request a re-invite, or even if it's a new one. I can't make notes on every player. I can only make notes on those I ignore or those in my guild or friends list. These people definitely aren't going on my friends list. They're no longer in my guild, and the ignore list is very limited. You run a guild for the past year, and on into the unforeseeable future, how many people does this potentially add up to?

Keeping a spreadsheet listing these individuals is a limited possibility, and I have one, but it's inefficient, and doesn't keep my officers or other members from inviting them back. Posting a list of names is unacceptable to me because of possible repercussions when members recognize friends on that list, and because it may cause a negative atmosphere in the guild, which I try to avoid.

And yes, there are other workarounds, such as guild applications (assuming your guild is in a position to enforce those), or only accepting new members vouched by current members, etc. The point is, these are workarounds, and are only useful in this context as such. My suggestion of a blacklist keeps it simple, quick, private, and easy to track and keep updated. Members will only know a potential member is blacklisted if they get the message saying so when they try to invite. Another option I just thought of, maybe the GM can grant some officers the option to override the blacklist.

Regardless, anything other than adding a blacklist makes this concept more difficult, in my opinion. And I know some are saying it's a good idea but they won't add it. Well, you never know until you ask. And the more people who agree and ask, the more chance they'll add it. Thanks for reading.

in pvp there are lists of spies or trolls which we dont want in our guild. the officer in charge has to scan new invites on a weekly basis. This feature would simplify.

Definitely. Same basic problem, same application. I PVP on an occasional basis, and don't have a dedicated PVP guild, so I hadn't considered this issue, but you're right. It would definitely be a time saver.

It's a good suggestion but I wouldn't hold my breath. A blacklist is a guild tool that is too "advanced" for ESO. Haven't you seen how lacking the tools are for guilds? You can't even protect the guild bank from being robbed so I doubt this will end up on their to do list.

Their tools have to start somewhere.

I like this idea.

I wish there were a TON more guild functions.

It doesn't simplify for the officer having to look at every new invite though, does it?

Maybe they'll include one with the Imperial City.

I thought about this but the downside would be that only the guild owner can use it, correct? Or can everyone with invite privs use it?

If it was a ZOS implemented tool it would be guild-wide so anyone who tries to invite that person would get the message. If it's an addon like someone suggested it will only work for the person with the addon. That's why an actual game tool would be preferable for this type of thing.

Another idea that sounds great in theory (blacklist bank cleaners, repeat offenders, and abusers) that would be poorly implemented in practice (that sounded vaguely like an insult to something I hold dear. Kick and blacked! Good luck missing all your ex-guildies!)

I'm really not interested in another addon. It won't work for everyone, it won't interface seamlessly with the native programming, and like all addons, we're at the mercy of the developer's decision to continue playing and/or developing the addon. Addons are a stop-gap. I'm looking for a solution, and that can only be provided by ZOS. Thanks though.

I would like to see something like the implemented. It would really help us GMs with protecting the integrity of the guild roster. I have kicked bank thieves, known scammers, and more from the guild and you just can't remember all of their crazy screennames.

I would also like to see:
(1)tabs added to the History section so I can separate money deposit from all other deposits.
(2) Allow larger "About Us" and "MOTD" messages to be typed.
(3)Guild "Shout out board" 50 post - 140 characters a post.
(4)Polls
(5)Raffle Tool - all guilds have a raffle

Those are dreams and wishes but it would be nice having tools like that instead of having to keep a journal/notebook

1. already implemented in one addon, so never be added natively
2. good idea
3. same
4. same
5. same

btw why consoles didnt support addons?
