Suggestion To Imply In The Game!

Please discuss this in a calm and civil manner......
/sarcasm off. Anyway, this can be discussed in any way you want.
As long as personal attacks stay out of this thread im happy..
Here goes:
The ability to declare guildwars.
Give us a chance to declare guildwars on the other guild.
When a guild declares guildwar on a guild. The other guild gets a notification, and if they choose to accept all members of both guilds will be "tagged" to each other. (this is consensual pvp btw, since the guildleader of the challenged guild MUST accept before they can be attacked).
The guildwar goes on until someone ends it, but implement a way to count the kills made by each guild.
Remember, this is IN NO WAY SOMETHING I TRY TO FORCE ON ANYONE.
Its a suggestion and its PURELY consensual.

This was planned months (more than one year tho) ago and we got an official statement, GvG being one of the "PvP strike team" (using Nevrax & Ms. Mulligan own terminology) planned features.
As usual, it was later dropped "until further notice". So, well, it's on the ToDo list (the evergrowing one) so... "wait and see".

I used to 'target' the crafting players of a guild when this system was in use in another game. And I know full well that what I was doing could be seen as griefing...though I put the responsibility at the guild leaders feet for entering the conflict. So my experience of PvP is one of 'interpretation' of the rules, and he desire to 'win' at any cost. Fair play is not my primary concern when I participate in conflict.
I do not see the GvG option as community building.
edit - civil enough response for you Tigrus ?

Wasn't it originally intended to be part of OPs? That when one guild declared on another guild's OP, they were effectively at war? Or am I getting my broken promises mixed up?

No you got your broken promises right.

how small a guild did you have ?
any large guild will have a spectrum of players, some of whom have no desire to be involved in random PvP.. this option would force them to be victims or leave their guild.
Consensual PvP means YOU get to choose to do it.. not your guild leader, not the hairy little freaks that hang around the TP altars..
the PvP tag system as controlled by the player works. If you want GvG fights the option is available in Nexus or ToT.. and that is under the participants control.

Oh im not thinking about war against the OP.
Im thinking declaring a war that ends when you end it manually.
Meaning it can last for months or hours.
Flamewars also become a part of it usually. (its still consensual btw).

Here is one of the best ive had when it comes to guildwars

Here is another.

Btw, all those threads refer to a guildwar in swg. No need to read if not interested.
I liked those wars. So did they. And even though there was flaming, we all said we missed it when we ended it.
I want similar ones in ryzom. perhaps without the flames to that degree..
