I’ve been trying for about a month now to get our guild involved in doing things together, and i’ve finally hit the jackpot.
Got those members that only play with each other unless it’s a raid? That constant group of 5 that just does their own thing? Well- here’s an easy way to avoid getting those in your guild ( or at least make it not as definite.)
We have instituted ‘Guild Farming Day’. this may be different for guild further into progression since you all have some cracked-out gear, but the idea is pretty adaptable.
We have a points system, where when you get to 15 points, the guild will farm mats for a crafted item of your choice and if there’s a crafting fee, it will come out of the GB.
Point tallies will be shown as thus:
Instance = I
-1 point for half or more of the group being guild members
-2 points for a full guild run
Guild Contest = C
-1 point for participation
Guild Farming Day (for someone else) = F
-2 points for participation
Forum Attendance = A
- 1 point per week attendance thread is signed
Each Main will have their own thread and points will be distributed in that thread.
Example:
Goryending
1/23/08 (I) 1 point
^Gory earned one point for attending an instance run that contained 3 guildies.
It’s just a fun way to get people geared and get your guildies to work together towards a common goal- because, after all- that’s what a guild is for- right?

That sounds like tons of fun! Its a great way to get guild participation, I know I would sure be more interested if I knew I would get some sweet item from helping around.
Hope it works out for you guys.

Sounds a great idea. Let us know how it works out

We tried something similar, having a Karma system for (useful) forum posts, instance runs, and such earning credit for guild bank withdraws. worked out pretty well until folks forgot and gave up tallying the points.
Sounds fun though if you get the whole guild involved and not just the officers, like we tried!
