Would you want an addon to organize efforts of multiple groups in an Alliance?

On every side in every campaign there are multiple groups of players. Some are guild groups, some are groups of randoms, some are groups of friennds doing small scale pvp, some are optimized and some are not. All of them however share the same sets of goals. Most of the time they operate individually.
I've been thinking about an addon that would help those groups to cooperate. It would optimize efforts while allowing more strategy.
I thought of two fundamental functionalities:
Ofcourse not every group leader would have a access to all of that informations. A group would need to be sufficiently large to prevent espionage from happening.
What do you think? Would you want that? Would you use that as a group leader?

I thought of two fundamental functionalities:
- Marking all group leaders on map with their names and group sizes.
- Adding a chat tab just for group leaders.

✭✭✭✭✭The idea seems broken. You recognize that it could be abused so set a group size limit, but what would that limit be? My main problem would be that all the solos and pugs have no idea where to go and with this proposal it wouldn't make it any easier. If I'm running in a 12+ man group, it becomes less important where the other big groups are at. I'm in the group leading the charge to somewhere. It's more important for the smaller groups to know what's going on and due to the reasons you've outlined, this doesn't really help that.
Small man groups tend to follow the starbursts on the map. You get something burst and just watch them show up for the fight.0 -
Thraben✭✭✭✭✭1) I would only use such an addon internally, restricted to different groups of our guild, e.g., if we field 2 8player groups, and a ganker group. In that case it would be awesome to use for flanking manoevres. Restriction is the key, though. Neither leechers and zergsurfers, nor spies should be able to read our location data, though. Otherwise a tool like this, designed to help people operate in smaller units, would become a tool for zergbuilding.
2) The chat tab is not needed. There are factionwide coordination guilds with limited access used for that purpose.Edited by Thraben on March 8, 2019 6:02PMHauptmann der Dolche des Königs

✭✭✭✭✭I'd like an addon that can tell me where all the groups are so I can PvP lag-free on the other side of the map
Edit: Just in case you think I'm joking, I'm 100% serious

It's funny you think you are safe from cyro lag on the other side of the map

✭✭✭✭Try zone chat?
But I agree, it's frustrating seeing 3 keeps under attack by 3 siege engines each. No coordination, but if you suggest maybe all hitting one target at once, all you get is the usual dribbling from zone chat.
"I know what I r doing"
"U R scrub"
"lol n00b *** u"
Then in an hour when you've been gated, the same idiots are often in zone chat asking everyone why they're not working together.
