Right now the "Note" that you can fill in when you are in a guild is quite shitty. Most of the guilds don't give their members permission to use it. And reasons for that is because most of the time inside a guild. There is atleast 1 person who will abuse it and write crap in it.
But what if we change it? What if we give everyone the permission to use it. But in return they can only change their own note (Which actually makes alot more sense then it does right now) If someone wants to write crap in their note, not only does the officers know that he did it himself but also he can't write crap in other people's note.
What do you think? should they make a change like this?
Or you rather have it as it is now but instead have some kind of log. To see who changed someone his note.
(For those who don't know what note im talking about)

*sigh* I read the title as "Should guild "notes" be edible?" I do agree on with both suggestions as either would be fine.

If it is bullshit, then you never managed a guild. And have no interest in guilds at all.

Don't know that it matters. We use ours to keep track of what toons are alts of which mains, which is pretty darn public and noncontroversial. If there's any "who has an enchanter" questions we use discord for that.
Our secret officer notes just track how people were recommended to us, in case some sort of buried drama comes up (it doesn't).
It's been a while since I handed over guild master so I don't know to what degree that's customizable, but it would be nice if it was per-guild option at least. In our case locked down makes sense. In yours, do what you like.

What the fuck? The guild leadership sets the note editing privileges. Maybe quit joining garbage-ass trade chat cesspool guilds if you're tired of people editing youw wittwe note, baby boy

Don't even need a discord for that, you can see who has what professions right in the guild interface. Who has what prof, what level, and what recipes they know. Originally Posted by Heladys

This, if your guild uses EP/GP then the officer note isn't a problem because anything other than X,Y in it is going to throw off the addon. But if you don't use that addon and people are just putting random crap in it you aren't happy with, then that is your problem with the leadership. Originally Posted by Howlrunner

Well, I am sure you can do that already. Of course, no, officer's note is for officers. The other one can be enabled for all.

i'd personally like it, im glad that some guilds don't allow it though
the guild i am currently in, only notes certain players which is kind of random... i get noted all the time, but i am also friends with the officers and the GM so its ok.

The original post was saying they have their guild discord and ask questions in it. It's really not abnormal to have a guild discord to replace older VOIP programs, stop getting angry at normal things you overdramatic loon. Originally Posted by Broken Fox

I've left our player notes editable, only the officer one isn't, and that's only due to how EPGP works. Otherwise I wouldn't care. People like to write each other little love-letters, let'm have some fun imo.

Paraphrased. Time to suck that cheeto dust off your fingers.
On topic for OP:
I think it would be a good change. All they would have to do is make it a toggle. Either permissions could be "no edit" "all edit" "personal edit". That way people who want to keep it the same would have that option, while those who would like people to write their own guild notes without the fear of lighthearted vandalism can have that too.Last edited by Protean; 2017-12-07 at 07:01 PM.

Why would anyone bother to just write random stuff in it? My guild's is editable by anyone, but all they ever says is spec/ilvl/__'s alt. If you're having issues with people putting inappropriate/unnecessary stuff in the notes then that's an issue with your guild, not the feature.

This thread doesn't seem to be producing much in the way of constructive discussion. Closing.
