1. The possibility of grouping with a zillion people so you never know their names and constantly being spammed by a zillion people on chats is something that has been voiced...
but I kind of like my small community of players. My guild just doubled in size to about 10 people over the last two days, and It's hard to keep track of them AND the other people I hang out and level with. It's a pretty cool little community in the mid hundred levels of Zorai.
I kind of wish for more peeps too so that I had more options to buy and sell craft wares, but I like not having anyone camp prime hunting spots...though less than prime is cool to! Just ask a few Seers of Atys and some other Zorai how Baldy likes to experiment with level 150+ mobs solo!
All in all, I only really search for 4-5 people consistantly to group with. We're of varying levels but the cool skill tree gives us the ability to train something else with a friend who's lower. It almost makes me wish that guilds had limit sizes on them..like 25-30 peeps so we could all get real competitive and play 'Kipee tag' in the PR while laying sidebets!
2. All I've seen are people dueling with permission. I hate having to ask permission to kill someone. It's seriously LAME. Has anyone found some cool pvp areas or ways to do guild/group pvp?
3. I read something about mektoub rider races some time off in the future. Anyone know about cool side games that might be implemented? How about our own? I'm going to try and get my guild to sponsor some timed races through assored Kincher infested valleys for big cash prizes! I'm thinking million dapper pots, with hp limits of course. You have to be able to get killed in one hit..or less! But that's just the future of my guild, and a long way off. We only have 9-10 peeps atm and still need a guild hall.
I haven't been able to log as much as I like but I remember telling one guild member, that if she found a certain mat that I lost the location of (though I gave general dirs) I'd give her 10k and make her the amp. I'd still make the amp if I found it first, but they wouldn't get the 10k! Since they were just from noob land it was a cool little adventure....remember I DID give some dirs...I think that's pretty cool and ADDS to the game even if it isn't a side game.
We make better and more fun tasks than our current task masters you know? prolly better than a few quests when those are implemented. Each one is unique. I'm going to be running more quests like 'find kipee hill' for the noobs in my guild and stuff. Maybe add some RP into it. Not the 'thee and thou' kind, but the Sen (our clan leader) tells you: Would kindly assist doddering old Baldy to the PR? Please be careful with him, he's quite insane, and he must make it alive!
Of course during my insanity I attack a mob I know I can take...but given the lower level of the other person, they might be hard pressed to keep me alive....or they run to fast and I get lost in a wrong turn and they have to find me. Spur of the moment!
Random things, hey I'm at work!

Place - Arena just east of yrkanis - warns that you are about to enter a pvp area...just go there with whomever you want to kill.
Your other suggestions on "guild fun" are very good!
