I contributed to this thread about the recent rollbacks in Guild permissions:
My contribution is that it appears Guild permissions are being nerfed to fall in line with the basic functionalities of Communities. I’m advocating that BOTH Guilds and Communities be given “a robust set” of functionalities as opposed to having them exist with the bare minimum of tools.
Having Guild permissions become ever closer to the bare bones tools of Community management appears to be a goal from Blizz, imo.
