8)Warchief
    -Guild Master

    The same method for increasing your rank still applies. Helping other guild members out and contributing to the guild bank is the key to increasing your rank! The guild bank is monitored by the Warchief and the Pillagers, your contributions will not go unnoticed. 

    Not only contributing items, but gold is a very important part of guild growth, with enough gold in the bank you can have a percentage off your epic mounts! Each mount cost various prices lvl30 35g, lvl60 600g, lvl70 Flying 800g , Epic Flyer 5000g. With those base prices ill give you an example: 600g for your epic lvl60 ground mount, there is 1000g in the guild bank the entire guild (excluding peons) will get a 5% discount on their purchase. That would be 30g off your lvl60 epic mount, which would cost you 570g. The percentages max at 50% and are ranked by the amount of guild gold, so:

    a)1000g = 5%
    b)2000g = 10% 
    c)4000g = 20% 
    d)6000g = 30%
    e)8000g = 40% 
    d)10000g = 50% 

    Imagine with up to 10000g in the bank your epic mount cost as a grunt 300g! Not including the discount you get for a rank higher than grunt:

    a)Legionnaire - 2%  
    b)Centurion - 4%
    c)Warlord - 6%      
    d)Pillager - 6%      
    e)Recruiter - 8%

    So if there is 7863g in the guild bank and the the player is rank Centurion, looking to buy his regular flying mount base training 800g. The discount would be 30% (mainly because its not up to 8k gold yet) and Centurion 4% for 34%, so it would cost the player 528g for training.

Off the Ranking topic...

    The Guild Bank has changed to a more organized system, all tabs 1-4 are trade good tabs. Only trade goods should be placed into the tabs that correspond with the tab name. They are labeled in the game and grouped according to the gathering profession. Blacksmithing, Engineering, Jewelcrafting & Mining are one group. Leatherworking, Skinning, Alchemy, & Herbalism are another group. There is Tailoring and Enchanting that go hand and hand together. With the last trade tab being Cooking and misc. items. Tab 5 is rare-epic items (blues-purples), rare gems , enchanting shards, various hard to get items. Tab 5 is considered privileged access, no members other than the GM can remove items from this tab. You can request for items in this tab if your rank is Centurion or higher.

More Recruiting

    We are starting to focus on 50+ in the guild now, most members are moving up to that level or already there. I want to encourage players to focus on leveling their main character. With this push for more 50+ characters there will be a limit to the amount of lower level players in the guild. We will still assist lower members with leveling there main character. Acsia will be handling the recruiting at the moment, but all ranks Warlord and up (excluding Pillager) will be able to invite new members.

If your curious on increasing your rank in the guild, there are 2 simple things that can be done to ensure this happening. Contribute to the guild bank, items such as gold and materials for trade skills. The ranks at higher level have more access to the many tabs in the guild bank. The more you contribute the faster your rank will increase, but this is not guaranteed to get you to the highest rank.

You must show that you understand your character and can play well with other players, so by doing this I recommend grouping up with guild mates and going through instances. To really increase your rank to the top, you will have to group with people that are a higher rank than you are! This is not hard, because there is a max level to the game :) . Im not saying you have to be lvl 70 to be an officer, but there is more opportunity at lvl 70 then any other level because most of the officers are experienced in the game and have lvl70s of their own.

I want to encourage people to have fun in playing the game, so pace yourself don't rush.
