[suggestion] Guild System

gormenghast1

Is there any plan in the foreseeable future to add a Guild System in the game? The friend list can be useful, but the chance of creating communities would help players retention and favor interaction, without taking anything from players that prefer an individualistic game experience. Even if ML puts less emphasis on interaction among players than pretty much every other online RPG, being able to form guilds would be a nice addiction: it could help newer players to find someone willing to do some coaching, it would appeal to the more social personalities and it could be the basis for later content (which should still be available to solo if one so prefers, though).

Please just avoid forcing people to join guilds to get more content or bonuses granted by stronghold/fleet systems and stick on guilds being just social groups. A choice liike this would be acceptable both to players looking for social interactions and soloers, without creating too much discontent among the community.
