Personal guild upgrades stick around forever, while buildings is guild specific, and that obviously can't be transferred guild to guild, which is why I went around what most games do and ensured there was a way to keep some value towards your investment in any possible case, such as being kicked, disband, etc.
The primary reasons for people to invest is to get GXP for permanent transferable upgrades. The secondary reason is to improve the guild.
There isn't too much argument beyond that....I mean, if someone is concerned about such a thing, they can simply request leader status before investing a large quantity for better confidence. And another thought would be to avoid guilding up with a creator who doesn't have the insight to keep their best investors around.
Well going off of what I've seen recently with guilds having more members; when new guildies arrive they don't question the guild leader for a better position, they donate their stone and say hi to everyone. While I understand that GXP is kept per player, if stone is not also bound to a player it makes for even more questions. Such as, making tons of mules to work in the mines. Then 'recruiting' them to donate, kick and repeat. Yes, they keep their GXP but the stones they've invested would then give the guild a huge advantage.
Right now MDK has 17-18 players, if each made a mule or two just to mine...well think about how much more stone a guild can generate. It is also hard to avoid guilding up with a creator, if you know no better. I mean Sy is an amazing leader but, that isn't to say that other guilds might not abuse such a tactic to get ahead. I have no clue what future guild buildings will do per level up, but if they are amazing like +1 members, that's when abuse is likely to occur. Even right now, if stone isn't bound to someone, guilds can kick them and use them for their resources. Some players have used ascension points in mining+wood cutting, so while their damage isn't very high, their stone output was. Imagine joining a guild and investing your 200,000 stone, to be kicked soon after. Yes you still have your GXP but now what do you bring to the table for the guild you're trying to get into?
lol Maybe I'm making a mountain out of an anthill but Idk.
