Sell more guild bank space.
If the number of guild bank tabs can not be raised, then how about doubling existing guild bank tab slots at a cost of a million to a million and a half AD for each tab doubled?
The size of personal and shared banks have been raised over the years, as well as the size of our bags, but not the guild bank.
Yet?
DON'T
PANIC!

    Lot of players create alts, and with alts have guilds who have their banks unlocked ( fully). For example couple months ago I met guy who had three accounts, and two of these accounts have 5 alts, and each of them have own guilds, they all combined in one Allaince, but in the end all them serve just as storage's.

    The idea to sell additional guild bank storage would not be AD sink, cuz it would be just one time payment.
    If you realy want AD sink, you need system which constantly syphon certain sum of AD.


    The good example is Lineage 2 guild hall renting. In every city are certain quantaty of Guild halls. If your guild want to rent, you visit NPC( Auction) and there you as guild bid sums for prefered/aimed guild hall. The starting bid depend on halls location, size and additional features. The cheapest as I know is 50 mil Adena( gold). However all guilds can increase bid, and higher bidder wins, and it's claims right to use/own hall.
    However for right to use it, guild must pay rent fee, 50mil Gold every week. And gold must be deposit/kept in guilds bank. Failing to pay rent, leads guild lose access to hall, and hall is listed for next week auction.

    So this system is more constant, and this also make sure it would not be one players guilds. Like what we have here in Neverwinter.
    I have encountered countless one players guilds, who are combined in alliances, and all they are lv 1, and all of them serve just as additional storages. For exmple met player who have like main + 5 alts, and each alt have own Guild with fully unlocked guild banks.
    Neverwinter have hundreds if not thousands of such lv 1 guilds who act as additional storage's, and have 0 guild activity.

    If you want AD sink, it should be constant thing.

    So why not make so guilds rent Guild Tabs, increase sizes/quantaty you can store, but make so guilds would have to pay fee, weekly or monthly. Failing to pay lock storages and players can only claim back items, but can't store in.
    The fee could be guild activity realated currencies which players donate to guild coffer + certain sum of AD.


    So it would be constant AD sink and also create spot where players could donate Stronghold currencies.
