Guilds Could Fix The Economy! ( In Theory )

Everyone likes to talk about "How broken" or "Useless" guilds are right now, But after thinking a little, I realized that one of the most efficient ways to fix the economy, Might just be within...
Wait for it...
GUILDS.

___________________________

I'm going to try to keep this short, Basically, Guilds are a HUGE money sink, And if you don't know why the problem with the economy started in the first place... It's because of the lack of Money Sinks.

The amount of emeralds entering the server is much higher than the amount of emeralds exiting it, Therefore the amount of emeralds keeps growing, Coming to a point where there's so much of them making them all nearly worthless, Which is why Mythics are sold for such massive prices such as 20 stacks of LE, Making it impossible for non-scammers or people who actually uhm... Have a life, To afford or any, In other words, The source of the problem is Inflation.

So, How could guilds fix that?
Somehow, People still seem to have forgotten, Guilds are a massive money sink, Before they were completely glitched... People donated and spent so much time and emeralds into them, There are still a lot of guilds out there with millions and millions of donated emeralds inside of them... From the moment the emeralds are donated, They can't exit the guild bank, Therefore, The more emeralds people donate to their guild, The less emeralds there are in total, The higher the value emeralds is...
So why is the economy still broken?
I think that we all know that by now... Most people just gave up on guilds, Back at the time when the economy was still intact... Guilds were one of the main things in the game, Everyone were spending all their time guild warring and getting emeralds to donate... But by now, Because of the lack of updates and glitch fixes given to guilds, They sort of "Died", Let's compare the guild maps to how they were before, And after the economy started to break.


You could easily see how much active guilds used to be... And how active they are now.
My point being?
Guilds are such a great money sink system, The way you lose money from guilds is completely fair and actually quite fun... (Guild wars) unlike a lot of other money sinks that are so unfair such as the Horse Merchant and overpriced weapon/armor merchants...
It's such a waste watching them stay completely glitched for such a long time.
So let's say they fix guilds and actually update them, What then?
People would start enjoying guilds more, Spending more time and emeralds into them, Creating a balanced amount of emeralds exiting and entering the game, Making the value of LE higher and at some point (In theory), Fixing the economy.

I didn't make a "Quality thread" for quite a long time now, I'd love to get some feedback, Should I keep my future threads in this kind of format? Also be sure to comment your opinion on this down below, But please, I know that guilds and the economy are very sensitive subjects right now, So don't be too harsh, We don't want any flame wars going on.​

 

TL;DR: Fix guilds.

 

in all fairness, horse breeding is also a pretty big money sink

in general guilds really do need a proper revamp so that people have a reason to waste a bunch of LE on guild territories

 

Yeah I may have not done the best job at eh...
"Keeping it short"

Yeah but like I mentioned, Horse breeding is extremely unfair, And makes quite a lot of players quit at some point, It's like gambling, Guilds are a much more legitimate money sink, But yes, The Horse Merchant technically still is the most effective money sink.

 

Yes.
I want to actually do a guild war without bugging or entering a server where it just doesn't work.

 

Another valid reason to fix guild but let us take a step back. Do you think that fixing guilds has not gotten mentioned between the staff members? Okay guilds are a somewhat important part of the game, but there is more important things out there such as new content, balancing the game and fixing bugs. The issue here is that if guilds would be changed, it would most likely require a whole new code to be written and thus take a lot of time and effort. With Corkus comming out soon, and the content team already working on content beyond that, i feel like the team already has enough to do.

So: This whole guild fix thing has ofcourse been tought of, but with all the other content that has to be made there really isnt any time for a whole new code rewrite. It will come, eventually.

 

guilds make so much money tho

 

1 emerald a minute for each territory isn't that much, Most of the money is gained from donations, Also consider the fact that none of the emeralds gained could even ever somehow be taken out of the guild bank, No guild could live off of only the emeralds gained from territories.

 

each of the legio guilds had a bank account with at least nine digits it takes forever to drain that

 

Weren't most of these emeralds gained from donations? I might be wrong.

 

Guilds: Git gud

 

Don't forget Tomel, the shifty merchant in Thanos :D

 

I can tell you that just by holding neesak ad the jungle youd get ~1 million per month

 

I remember there being a shit ton of "guild shops" back then, I guess thats where the donations came from haha.

 

What i want, and think a lot of people to, is that the content team after releasing Corkus stop creating more stuff and start fixing guilds

 

Ur threads are good <3

 

I actually like inflation. I think a living economy is good and it should not be changed.

pls no hate

 

im beginning to think that the owners dont really watch these threads n arent very worried bout the guilds portion, so many ppl say stuff bout guilds being broken. It's becoming clear that they either just dont care or extremely tied up that they couldn't devote just a couple days to finally resolve the issue or all the above. Regardless though, I'm seriously tired of seeing Hax everywhere and want to destroy them but cant, cuz the guild attack is seriously beyond bad broken and not worth wasting 3 min. here 3 min. there so on and so on trying and preying it works. FIX IT ALREADY WYNNCRAFT, G'lord.

 

I totally agree with you @LordMuttonChops, the guild's are super broken and so is the economy. We gotta also remember this is just a Theory. And like an theory it is subject to failure. Although, this theory doesn't seem that way. From the way it is presented, it seems like it would work out. I hope that the owners actually see this and say, "Hey, let's listen to the community and fix guilds." Just saying that out loud to themselves would probably make them fix guilds. That's all that I have to say.
