I said realisticly, so come up with a better plan please.

One for people with jobs, other hobbies, wives and lives, preferbly.


That or the Wizards could just get to copy-pasting decent racks to all guilds...

I have job, wife, ex-wife and 2 kids. What i'm doing wrong?
And here is no problem with rack looting in BDA. You souldn't do it alone. All high ranked guild members should take part in it

Yes because it's so amusing and no sick at all, that instead of having fun playing the game, people are to spend their time on tracking who could have stolen those three lines of text. Someone would have to be either mental to actually act like that or just... mental.

errrr - I can't see how it's intentionally part of the game to suggest to players, they should spent their gaming-time on things you mentioned ...

it shouldnt.. It just pisses off people when it happens..

I dont see why a layman guild like necroes can have those Uber cool racks that shows what goes in and what goes out, and by who. In a layman..

And most prime guilds dont have it.. Shouldnt the cool "racks" be in the normal guilds, and then have the lesser cool racks in layman guilds.

I think prime guilds should have the prime stuff. and laymans should have a normal rack/chest.

Things i mentioned is in-guild interaction between players and guild control by high ranked members. It's not a part of the game anymore?

There are things that some guilds have that others don't have. We all got saving racks now right? It is part of the diversity those guilds offer really. In the end it all will brew down to who wears what color of robe/armor and who doesn't - everything else will be the same. And no, melee will be melee and casters will be casters. Just so you cannot make some spinoff thread of off that.

Having the same rack is not a question of diversity, imo. It's a question of efficiency. Have one rack that everyone inherits, with a possibility to set up the unique features you want (descriptions, limitations, log-option etc). Then when someone takes the time to fix a good listing, everyone can benefit from it. Same with saving/logging possibility, and for finding/fixing bugs etc.
That way, it will at least not be a question of whether someone should put down time to add logging-possibility to a certain guild - if logging exists for some but not for others, it's because the immortals felt that some guilds should have it and some shouldn't (desired diversity, not due to lack of time/effort).
And then this discussion would be more interesting - currently I don't know if the lack of logging possibility is because the immortals want it so, or if it's because it's a lot of work and therefore not a priority thing to add.
(and with one base-rack, DO might get racks with less messy item-listing)

With admittedly having no knowledge of the implementation cost, it does seem like the 'necro rack' model as the basis for all guild racks is a great idea IMHO.
