I feel this way too, the teleport will allow people to gather random level 10s and form a guild easily. While they still have to pay a price, currently every single member have to make the trip down to Orbis to form a guild. It's not just paying mesos to form a guild, but travelling to the sacred grounds together that makes it meaningful, and also difficult so that only serious people go with the leader to form one. As for expansions, you can either expand ahead of time, or simply ask the person to wait. If they are serious about joining, or if they applied on the forums, I'm sure they can wait a day or two. The next time you're not grinding you can spend half an hour or so moving to Orbis to get those expansions. Adding this tele would be similar to adding "Create Guild" and "Expand Guild" buttons, just like in the party interface. Furthermore, expansions only require the Guild Master to travel, think of it as part of his responsibilities as a Guild Master. Guild Master don't have much to do apart from that (nothing that appointable Jr's can't do). The entire process of travelling to form a guild and travelling to expand the guild (or add/change logos) are part of the potential commitments the Guild Master has to consider and be prepared to undergo before deciding to lead a guild.

"If it ain't broken, don't fix it." I don't see a major downside to the current system, it only requires people to wait and travel, which is an inconvenience present in other areas of the game (just like travelling to find the Buddy List Admin). So I too would prefer this not to be added.

I think you summed up my thoughts on this nicely. I'd use it if it were there, but I'd prefer that it wasn't added. Making a guild should be meaningful and somewhat difficult, and maintaining it (adding slots) is a guild master's responsibility, like you said.

The ride to Orbis was a HUGE deal in early Maple! Taking this out takes out a lot of the nostalgia and teamwork a lot of people crave when coming to a GMS-like server.

I can tell you right now that taking the requirement to ride to Orbis to make a guild will take a huge chunk of the Nostalgia people crave away. This also REQUIRES people who are making a guild to work together and cooperate. It's essential for a standing guild to have people you can rely on and trust. That party of 6 is the first step in a good guild. If you just grab a whole bunch of people together off the FM, port to Orbis in a single click to make a guild, you learn nothing from them and it falls apart.

Rog parties and getting to Orbis has to have the boat, obviously. But I think keeping the boat a requirement for guild creation is vital to the server.

As far as increasing slots in guild and creating an alliance, this is something a guild master agrees to the moment they click the "Create Guild."

This will also increase the number of guilds created by new members, stretching the thin number of members here so far. While having new guilds is GREAT, I don't think the server has enough people to spread if everyone wants to own a guild.

-1 for me =/

Totally agree with Yell.
I would still want the orbis ship ride and not just have a warp cos it is inconvenient or whatsoever.

The thing stopping people from making guilds, isn't the trip; Its the price.

Yeah.. sorta a silly reason but it's true. People are too busy worrying about endgame in a v62 brand new server with 2x EXP. Smh.

You could also:

Buy a VIP Rock

Create guild

Save map

Buy more VIP rocks at this point

Use a VIP Rock if you need to expand quickly, using an other to get back is entirely up to you.

Technically this suggestion is already in place at the cost of Cash. Being a guild master shouldn't come cheap, and Cash is already far more accessible than in the original game.

A lot of people seems against the idea, as well as @Gi giving a very perfect solution to this issue.

Sorry, but this will be rejected.
