- Please fix the Guild Name issue - we joined an alliance not one massive guild.
- Please give guild leaders the ability to inspect fellow guild and alliance members again - removing that is just ridiculous because we are supposed to try and help one another with our builds via the menu and also form solid parties, why remove that?
- The coffer True/False donation selections do not work - there should be a Confirm Settings button
- Why am I provided the option to kick the helm guild?

^^^^^^^ This^^^ we have an Alliance name ready to go but it only gives the name of the helm Guild, my understanding was that we would be able to have our own alliance names, why should Sword and Gauntlet guilds lose their Identity, if they wanted a merge they would have done it by now!

I can't confirm this work but try:

1. Go to Character History tab and Clear Title
2. Log Out
3. Log back in
4. Set the title again

Had mixed reports that this helps but I dont know if its 100% the way to fix it.

Please fix the bonding stone issue. Once brutality or precision proc it kicks the bonding stone timer to about 4-6 seconds negating the purpose of the bonding stones themselves. @kreatyve Please do not address me. Tyvm with regards to this.

I will see if Andy has any information regarding the Arc Points once he gets online in about 4 hours.

Still waiting....only been over a week now.

The obvious answer to this is that PWE, who owns STO, is located in a space going vessel that is moving at a significant percentage of the speed of light. In their frame of reference, it may have only been 20 minutes since your post, even though it's been weeks for us.

It would explain quite a bit, actually.

Tried it, did not do anything still cant change the Alliance Title, there is a check box for having your personal title replicate the alliance title, unless I am missing something it appears that it pulls it from the helm guild and you have no choice.

This really needs addressing IMHO.

You do not get the ability to change the alliance name. PC doesn't have that ability either. The bug on Xbox is that you can't toggle your own guild name back on because the checkbox is unable to be unchecked.

It seems that upgrading the guild hall requires an additional building now that it did not require before. I am going to guess this was a bug that was fixed recently which is great to fix things. The issue I see is that several guilds were allowed to reach GH20 without the requirement and now the rest of us have additional requirements to meet.

Can you elaborate on this? I know that we had to have as many structures as stated in order to upgrade. The thing that was not working properly was that the requirement was listed for the odd numbered levels (i.e. GH19 says "you must have 10 structures at rank 9" but we went straight from 18 to 19 without building anything. We needed the extra structure to get to GH20).

That sucks, surprised its not on PC, doesn't seem that hard a thing to do, they could give us more than five characters for the alliance Tag to help with this issue.

The wording on the GH upgrade has always said requires x # of additional structures at rank X, however, this always included/counted the GH as one of the structures and now it seems to not count the GH. I don't have the wording in front of me but I think I am stating this correctly, I will have to look in game again to get the actual words and counts.
