You have a better chance of hitting the lotto 3 times in a row.
Remix has been over for weeks and my farm in Halfhill is still broken. Iām not holding out any hope for Santa-Ionās heart to grow three sizes any time soonish.
Iām not convinced it could grow even one size larger.
So far, Iāve been really liking TWW. It seems Blizz put all their efforts into the new stuff, and not so much into fixing old stuff. They did jump right on the glitch that made all the radiant gear vanish, and fixed the issue of vanished mats in the warbank, but that (to me) just illustrates that theyāre hyper focused on the ānewā and not the āold.ā
Iāve pretty much lost all hope that theyāll ever do anything meaningful with guilds again, much less fix the permissions, but Iām going to keep posting in this thread as long as itās here. Iām stubborn like that.
Sigh. Broke down and bought TWW even though there have been no meaningful guild updates that I could see. It just didnāt seem worth playing if I couldnāt level at least a little.
Weāve given all our reasons why granular permissions should be returned. Weāve given tons of suggestions for guild improvements. All of that is in the original thread. I would consider copy-pasting the posts here, but A) I donāt have time, and B) Blizz will just ignore it anyway.
Maybe if my schedule lightens up, Iāll do it anyway. Itās not like Blizz will actually fix anything before I get around to it.

Yup. Still dead. Still gonna keep posting until Blizz either fixes the permissions or definitively says they arenāt going to. Why? Because I really think guilds (and the friendships made in them) are important to this game, and they should be bolstered, not left to whither and die.
Posting in solidarity.
Wish I could think of something new to say. I understand why not so many people are posting anymore. Weāve said it all, over and over.
-
Guilds are important.
-
Blizzard should support guilds.
-
Allowing custom permissions is simply one way to help guild leaders run their guilds as they see fit.
-
Fixing an unintended problem shouldnāt take this long.
-
When you advertise āguild updatesā, you should actually update them (not simply make them cross realm).
Has anyone tried putting in a interface ticket and asking them how to set permissions for officers without including everything? Submitting the comparison screenshot of before and current? Iād be curious to see what they say, or if they just tell you to submit it as a bug on the forums.
People did put in tickets and bug reports in the beginning. I know the permissions were even worse when the bug/glitch/whatever first showed up, and Blizz did a hot fix that changed a couple of them. But after that, Ion went on to say the change was unintended and that they were working on a fix, which weāve all assumed meant a return to granular permissions whenever the āfixā is done. Since then itās pretty much been crickets from Blizz.
This is an issue Iām running into as well, too. As an RP guild, we want to give players access to the officer chat to use as a sort of ācomms deviceā chat without having to worry about creating (and managing/purging/etc) a whole new channel. But in order to let members use officer chat, they currently have to be an officer. Very poor design. Please make these features individually togglable.
I will continue to post here until Ion finally follows through on his promise.
I donāt know, but I sort of feel like this issue will be around longer than Ion.
Looks like itās time to remind Ion he said they were fixing this. Of course, making a post here doesnāt remind anyone at Blizz of anything, since they donāt even read this thread. I wonder if we should be writing controversial stuff instead.
Well, thereās really not much to say anymore. Just, āFix the dang permissions!ā
Posting controversial stuff just makes the badmins, trolls, and blue simps report/timeout happy, so the message would never get through. Youād have a better chance of trying to find one of Ionās social media accounts and try to write him directly, or even better, corner them at a blizzcon (if there is ever one again), live stream the whole interaction, and catch him off guard asking him about it.
Wouldnāt that be fun? Alas, I doubt Iāll ever attend a Blizzcon (assuming they hold a live one again). There are bunches of other things that rate higher on my list of things to do. Posting here is quick and easy, though clearly not effective. Honestly, confronting Ion in person probably wouldnāt be effective either. As a lawyer, heās used to deflecting all kinds of questions.
Ho hum. Permissions are still busted. Thread is still here. Guess itās time to post another reminder (like thatāll do any good).
You know what would be cool? If someone could make an add-on that allows us to assign the permissions however we want. Probably canāt be done, but it would be awesome if it could and someone did it. That would be an add-on I would donate money for. And (assuming it could be done) it would probably work better than anything Blizzard would slap together.
I got the feedback survey and on the last page where you can write anything I kindly reminded Ion that the granular guild controls are still borked.
Hopefully those feedback notes are actually read by some human, rather than being automatically deleted.
That was a good idea. I havenāt had a survey where I could write in anything. If I ever do get one, Iāll definitely mention the permissions.
i guess daily/weekly in-game ābug reportsā and āsuggestionsā are the only way to keep doing it.
I am getting so tired of being ignored. If they arenāt going to fix this, why canāt they just say so? Just come on here and say, āWeāve decided weāre happy with how the guild permissions are working and have no plans to change them.ā That at least would be honest. Why is honesty so hard for people these days?
