I did do a search for this, but did not find the idea listed. I apolgise in advance if I missed it somewhere.

IDEA
The idea is simply to show a player's 7-day donated faction alongside their name in the guild roster.

REASONS
1. Faction is important to guilds. Guild leaders/officers need a way to see who is contributting.
2. Ordinary members who donate (like me) would like to have some recognition. Currently when you donate faction nobody knows. I love Alliance Battles, and I love to compete, but the fact that my earned faction is simply transferred without any credit to me is a big disincentive to putting in the time and effort required.

DETAILS/OPTIONS
7 days is long enough to give a good daily average without having to farm every day, but short enough to meaningfully show who is currently active in the guild.

Optionally a drop down list could allow members to choose whether to display totals for the last 24 hours, 7 days, or total faction contributed by each player to the guild. Note 7 days would be the default.

I can't believe that no-one responded to this even to say they disagree.

All the guilds I have joined are obsessed by ab and guild faction points because they want to own a town etc. Have I just been incredibly unlucky in the guilds I have joined? Perhaps most guilds/alliances don't bother with faction.

My suggestion is for a low dev effort modification that will help people monitor the gain of faction (this is simillar to guild status points in EQ2).

Doesn't anyone have an opinion?

I was going to say it too that they have this in EQ2's guild menu.
Maybe they should add it for the guilds that want to keep track of who is contributing and how much.
