Let me put in everything I want to do regarding the guild house idea, because I like the idea, however it needs some clear rules and such First of all, if this system is put into effect, it will be obliged to be in htooc at all times when you're online. If you're spotted outside it, you'll get a whisper, after which you NEED to get back to the channel. If any kind of discussion/fighting happens in htooc, report it to the highest ranking member online, who at that point will tell the people doing this to either A: Take it to whisper B: Take it to a seperate channel - If they don't listen, there is a demotion, and if they still don't listen, removal from guild. It is important everyone is in HTOOC so everyone can see all OOC announcements, and so we can reduce the amount of OOC( Even with (( )) brackets ) in /g.
Also, all basic hellos are done in HTOOC if this system goes into effect. Any additional hellos can be made if someone enters the guild house(such as shown above).
Secondly, the guild chat becomes a second dimension. Basically, you can walk into the house in this second dimension, at any point at any time, without having to be there at the actual place. The guild house will be located at the Hillsbrad Fields INN - NOT THE TOWNHALL. Take this in mind as you RP in /g once this system is implemented.
Also, you are able to RP both in /g, and somewhere else. It is possible to, for example, RP in Stormwind, while at the same time you RP in the guild chat, because the guild chat is a second dimension.
Happenings that happen in guild chat, if you are present, can be used in outside RP. If for example Miggo throws a jar of jam at Freaza in the guild house, then for example, if you leave the guild house, and go RP somewhere, you can say "Hah, Miggo threw a jar of jam at Freaza!". HOWEVER, you cannot directly give through anything that happens. For example, if you are in Stormwind(there's RP there I tell you! Lots!), and Sugutor enters the guild house, you can't say "Oh, Sugutor entered the guild house!". You need to be outside of the guild house, and start with RP with someone, if you want to link what happens in the guild house to live RP. The same thing applies vice versa.
Thirdly, people have expressed they want to be able to say things when they're on the other end of Azeroth, Buzzbox was THE solution to this. So, how do we replace this? We don't. Let me explain. Instead of the guild chat being constantly a buzzbox channel, instead people will be able to use their buzzbox to call out messages. This is done by the means of [BB] tags(short version of [BuzzBox]). Place a [BB] tag infront of your message, and it will be seen as a buzzbox message in the guild channel.
However, this goes with limitations. I do not want [BB] spam, as you can already be anywhere you want in this first dimension, though sometimes you might want to RP being somewhere else and still being in contact. Try to avoid [BB] messages as much as possible, a few lines of conversation with [BB], but do not let it overspam the guild house. No hellos with [BB], all hellos go to htooc or to /g once someone enters the guild house(must be done clearly by an emote, shown in original post).
We will vote for the guild house idea on saturday, all guild members( alts removed mostly ) need to check their calendar for a calendar event on saturday. The voting opens on 0:01 Saturday and ends on 23:55 Saturday. Accept = Yes, Decline = No. There must be a 66% amount of Yes votes for this idea to be implemented
