I don’t even know how to invite people cross realm. Is this another stupid “you have to be Bnet friends with all of these strangers to invite them” kind of deal?
dont work cross faction, but you can create a guild recruit and ppl can just ask access from any server
Took them a long time to figure out the regional AH change.
If I had to guess they’re running into concurrency and collision problems that for whatever reason they couldn’t foresee or test until live.

Actually, cross faction can’t see guilds cross realm, but you can still join cross realm. At least yesterday they couldn’t. I created a community for me myself an I and dropped a guild invite link into it, then logged onto all alts, joined community, then clicked and joined guild. So now my guild has all of my nonremix, non main/raid characters across 5 different realms in it.

Its not even a remotely close analogy. If you drive off the lot not checking any of said features that is your fault.
You are not promised that any of these features will work on any given date. Plus the myriad of PC setups that any game runs on is so vast that it is amazing that they are able to make a lot of these features even work.
I would very much like to know what the reason was. Because it’s very odd that there’s quite that much difference between live and beta other than sheer volume.
I do it the same way as cross-faction. Community with a Guild Invite link in Community Chat. You can’t search cross-realm but this way works fine.

Was really hoping to put this key feature to use, especially for Remix. With that said, it’s probably why they pulled it down cause how dare we have convenience to send our remix alts max level gems? Can’t mail them - have to make a dummy account to trade to and from myself. Bet you anything the Warbank will be available and “working” once remix ends.
You might be able to use a copy and paste Guild Invite link. I didn’t try that since I already had the Community system setup for cross-faction.
do communities work now? cuz i tried this yesterday and cant create one
good to know
Not knowing how the whole thing is laid out we can only speculate. But dev and test is probably one database in one data center. Live is probably multiple interconnected databases and data centers. You have a toon on a server hosted on the east coast, another hosted on the west, where does your warbank live? how do you deal with item transfer from one to the other?
you are right and this is true… but somehow this is the kind of things i spected them to have clear when they decided the arch for this feature…
Wrong dev for the job, don’t have a right dev, institutional memory loss, project management that doesn’t understand the complexity, lots of reasons this can go south. And databases are very susceptible to a little bit of knowledge can do a lot of damage when things scale up.
Hilariously, I’m not even in charge of my guild’s Community. One of my members made one. LOL
I really wish they’d just scrap the Community system and fix the darn guild permissions and guild finder.

oh man, that would have been super sick if we could dump our “cloak” to the warbank and sneak one in retail. 854% exp bonus! YES PLEASE lol
yes they are
Sadly, yeah. I tested the warbank in the beta with non-remix characters and it was fine, then rolled a remix character and it didn’t even see a warbank tab (much like you can’t see your heirlooms tab on a remix character either).
