Ok look iv asked a few times for you guys to add in a drop down on the roster page that shows the total contributions for each member, this is needed information that you guys have yet to provide us ingame, specficily the guild leaders want this for making better choices for promotions instead of just relying off of TIL or time spent in the guild, sure they could have been there 6 months and have a TIL of 3k but if their not donating anything im not going to promote them, so once again Please add in a drop down on the guild roster page for total contributions this is definitely needed information for us guild leaders....

That being said, I actually do agree with you that it would be nice to be able to track if people are donating or not. And each person can do whatever they want with that info, some will use it, other can ignore it.
this is what should've been done. Total value of donation. Ive probably put in.. somewhere in the vicinity of 160k or something in total guild mark values. I doubt that would make me even a top 15 in my guild.. Tie it to guild marks earned (not capped ) but earned total value. So if total value earned was 100k guild marks, you would be posted as such.
the issue with the system in place right now is you could donate.. and by the time someone reviews its off the page! You could keep the rolling log, but also have a seperate page showing total value of donations.. from the start!
I see the need for officers to make sure that people are at least doing their part, but I would hate for a new system to be put into place and lose all of that history that was done as well.
The OP only wants an excuse to boot out all the Dwarves in his guild for not donating enough.

This exactly!
A total donated tally wont show if the player is supporting the guild by running content, it wont show if they are donating gear to other players, it wont show if they are passing on loot to allow other guildies win it, it wont show how much of their play time has been devoted to the guild. It simply shows a total, delivered out of context, that shows only one minor aspect of being in a guild. An aspect that wasnt even needed for most of the life of the game and only invented because people felt being guilded needed extra motivation.
If the only way you as a guild leader knows if your members are participating. Is by a faceless entry on a form, and not by actually seeing them in game, playing with them, interacting with them, or adventuring and farming with them, YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG!
I can only guess your guild has only existed after mod 7. Because by your limited definition of usefulness in a guild. Everyone would of been leeching.
But assuming your guild actually did exist before mod 7. How did you manage to function? How did you know who to promote, or to remove? How did you discover the active players from the leeches? Guild leaders, like yourself, asked for, and demanded incentives for guilds to attract more players, to be more useful. And now that you got it, all you want to do is use it as a measuring stick.
If there are leeches in your guild YOU put them there. If there are people ONLY willing to join your guild because of the special cookies are offering. Then it is a situation you created.
Guilds NEED to be more then the boons or perks they can offer. And membership needs to be more then maintaining some stupid quota on a balance sheet. If anyone cant understand that, then you clearly are running or being in a guild for the wrong reasons.
I want to know the age of every player made public to all. After all, we don't want leeches. And kids and teens are the ultimate leeches. They don't work, they cant possibly generate enough income to be a worthy guild member. They are either completely free players or leeching off some one else, most likely some silly parent. No one wants one of those in their guild and we need an in game tool so we can kick them out.
So how old are you Doublea2015?

Thanks for all the fish.
Please don't add this. It really would add more toxicity.
Personally I have been a member of a guild before the SH even came to be. There were no requirements, just hang out and help each other. Now I am expected to be their slave and produce at whatever rate the guild leader thinks I should be producing at. No Thanks.
