Hello,

I am guild leader of NER

we are about to purchase a Guild Hall soon and i have a question regarding it.

I am the guild leader and the one who will be getting the hall, and i live in usa and my acount is set for north america, but the rest of my guild is based out of europe and there acounts are set to europe.. do the guild halls work like International districts? or would only i be able to get in it because i am the leader and i bought it in a North American District? Are Guild Halls acseselbe(sp?) to anyone in the guild no matter where there account is? or am i wrong.. Please A Hastly Reply. Thx

*sorry if something like this was posted before but i find nothing in FAQ or search*

and also why does the game only allow 5 acount switches to Different Global Districts?

It doesn't matter where the guild members reside, all of them can access it. (Also, since most of your guild's from Europe, the game will consider you to be a European guild anyway.)

Also, I presume you only get a limited amount of changes because it is a hassle to move a character from one server to another. Newer accounts only have 4 switches because that makes them end up back on the server they started from. Remember you always do have International Districts.

Come to think of it, Savio (or anyone else): I was holding on to the Sigil for my guild's hall until Factions comes out and I can see the new ones ...

... would non-Factions-updated players be able to get into a Factions guild hall? I wouldn't see why not ... I mean even if they could access the Luxon/Kurzick NPC's that stand there, it's not like they will have faction to spend ...

Has anyone heard any info from Gaile/ANet about this? I'd be very curious to know, as I may have to re-evaluate our guild hall situation

I believe the limit on switching servers is to keep the 'world at war' facade. It would be pointless if you could always switch whenever you lose favor.

But your other points are valid. I haven't seen them brought up before.
