For a game that is entitled "Guild Wars" the lack of honor bestowed upon the guild itself in the Hall of Monuments is somewhat lacking in my opinion.
I would love to see a stand on either side of the Monument of Honor (Titles monument) which would display a player's guild cape. Nothing fancy, just something to give a nod to our guilds.
The display could work just like the color system for Ascended armor sets, automatically adjusting the guild cape's image should the guild cape be altered.
Please sign if you would like to see our guild capes properly memorialized in the Hall of Monuments and Guild Wars 2.

Sounds nice. They could just use the regular guild banners already in the game.

Guilds themselves do have a rather unimportant role in a game called "Guild Wars." This suggestion makes sense and would be fairly easy to impliment.

The only potential problem I can see is what to do if your guild changes capes, but still, a good idea.

Sure why not?

Not everyone is in a Guild, and some people who are in a Guild are only there because you need to be in one to donate Faction to alliances to boost the Kurz/Lux titles. For such a player as this, it's bad enough they have to have their crappy Guild cape forced upon them in PVP matches. No need to add insult to injury by forcing their crappy Guild cape into the HoM too.

I would say that the HoM is supposed to be for personal achievements. Anyone can have a guild cape. Not really an achievment, IMO

If it means that much to you, just make it so you have to physically put it in the hall yourself, so it's not automatic and you can choose to not have the cape in there. Voila problem solved.
btw, /signed. It'd be really cool to have personal emblems flying around (though I imagine the number of 1 person guilds would skyrocket after this)

Oh, and /signed because there needs to be more emphasis on guilds in "Guild Wars"

Ow... great... just like most standards... like luxon and kurzick ones...
They could hang from poles between the monuments.
Those same poles could be used in the Guild Hall. With 'stick out from wall' and 'stand vertical from the ground' versions.

I like my guild's cape.
I didn't notice anything, anywhere about it giving any sort of bonus. It's aesthetic, nothing else.

Only if its optional. I don't like my guild cape and don't want to see it on any occasion if I don't have to. I wouldn't use it but options are good.

There's really no constructive reason why this would be a bad idea, it doesn't affect anything about the HoM. But I don't see why it should be implemented. That said, I wouldn't mind if this was implemented, but I could care less if it wasn't.

Since you didn't even go for that one, all that's left is the silly "I don't want other people to have better looking stuff than me." If you think people shouldn't get better looking stuff from paying money, wake up and smell the golds.
P.S. Being in a guild is an achievement.

the guilds stay on the background of this game and it's quite weird since having a guild is as normal as wearing an armor in this game
we need to bring the guilds more in sight
displaying a large cape of your guild in your HoM would be a first step

People can be devoted to the guild at a personal level. Like being the leader, and amking everything only with your other 11 members.

Sounds good to me! And if someone were to change guilds, then the cape would change then as well, same if the leader paid 2k to change the cape's appearance. /signed

This would be a cool idea, would be nice if it maybe hung from the roof right in the center and made it large. Make it a central point to your HoM.

As the game has evolved, the reliance upon other players has diminished, but the point of an online multiplayer game is, in some part, to interact and form friendships with others and guilds often form the basis for such. To recognize and allow players to have a memorial to their friendships is sensible. Additionally, the lore aspect is enhanced since the GW2 chars are supposed to be descended from GW1 chars.
and yay for unintentional thread necromancy.
in summary, lore, guild wars being named guild wars, and remembering good times are good reasons for the implementation of this idea.

Do this too, there are blank banners, they can be changed to fit the guild cape of the guild that owns the hall.
It simply changes with it. The background of the guild window can change with the guild cape, just add this to the list of what changes.
But guilds are one of the points in the game really. And if people hate their guild cape, just have the cape changed (or guilds in your scenario). As for those who are in a guild, just have it like the Guild Hall banners - a blank gray.
The HoM is for achievements because said achievements give rewards in GW2, that is how the comment relates. Guilds are, as said, a main part of Guild Wars, and as such it deserves some recognition. Along with that, the HoM is meant as, in a lore sense, a "home for your ancestor's belongings" in GW2. As such, noting what guild your ancestor was in would fit very well with the HoM.
Also, you are not the only person who disagrees.
Can you tell me how often you go to your HoM? I doubt you go there very often that seeing a cape would bug you. And while it is "personal" it is meant as a record of your account's achievements/things that would be known in a lore sense, and a guild would be included in what your character has done and whatnot in a lore sense.
There is absolutely no real argument about not adding this, it falls under the purpose of the achievements in a lore sense, it cannot hurt anyone (honestly, if you hate your own cape so much, have it changed or leave your guild), and it wouldn't take too long to add in. Neither would be adding them to a more important area - guild halls.

To those who object this idea, the concept is merely cosmetic. You did say it's personalized for the character, so how much can displaying your guilds cape hinder that? I see no other reasons why it shouldn't, and for reasons that the ones who object this previously said, it's all personalized. So what's wrong with a little spice and flavor to it if it's yours?

there are other things i would like to see changed in the game this isn't one of them. the only way i think this would be cool is if all the guilds you were in showed up as well. and it had the guilds full name along with tag (unchanged by bans to hehehe so many good guild names destroyed by [ban] ) only guilds that you where in for a month though not guilds you joined for a few days and then quit.
