There's no transferring going on. Izzy / some other admin just forgot to remove [mkay]'s trim, like it always takes them a week to add silver trims to guild that didn't have it yet ( and magically only takes 2 seconds for a gold one )

I didn't care to read the thread through. But same thing happened with [rawr] when Awowa's account was taken over and [rawr] was deleted. So if its about the fact that Izzy transferred it, its all about your face. Izzy likes it, you can transfer. Don't like it? TOO BAD shit happens QQ.

The thing is that nowhere has Anet ever transfered a cape trim from one guild to another even if it contains the same players, all they have stated is that the cape trim is tied to the guild name so if a guild gets deleted and recreated it will still have the trim. If you really want to see if they are inconsistent somebody with a gold/silver trim guild should delete the guild and recreate it and see what happens.

what i don't understand is the reply from Arena Net

Quote:

In response to your inquiry about transferring the silver cape to your new guild, I will ask the appropriate parties to see if this is possible. You should hear back from us within 72 hours. Thank you for your patience.

Take care,

GM Cykor
The Guild Wars Support Team

I am assuming GM Cykor is new and does not know weather a cape trim is transferable or not. But if GM Cykor is not new, since many of you say it has never been done before, shouldn't the first reply have says something like: No, cape trims are non transferable becasue Blah blah blah...??

Their Second Response:

Quote:

Hello,

We have discussed this issue and have decided to deny your request for the cape to be transferred.

Best of luck with the new guild.

Sincerely,

GM Cykor
The Guild Wars Support Team

and the second reply, they even have a discussion. ?? does it even need a discussion if there has never been any cape transfers before?

Just curious you know because if you are reporting something they have a standard reply for everytime. but the reply sounded like its something that has been done before and they just need to check weather it is applicable in this situation.

Why can ANet program a Automated Tournament and not an Automated Trim Distribution?

That's what I've been wondering for a long time now :/
Oh well, as long as we keep getting silver, no problem

This. mkay isn't the only one - Vent Rage [vR] still has their bronze trim from two months prior despite going 0-4 in the last monthly.

Every guild from last monthly still has their cape trim as far as I know. Its just izzy being lazy/not having time to remove old trims.

This was a big problem over a year ago with loads of guilds having trims for many months on end even if they didn't play. However izzy had a big clean up of them all but it seems hes gone back into old routines.

I have a couple questions:

I've always wondered why this policy is in place to begin with - "privacy issues" doesn't fit, as character names aren't (usually) real names. Names aren't allowed by Anet to be "sexually explicit or offensive" so this doesn't seem to be why... can someone please enlighten me?

Secondly, I thought Izzy was in charge of skill balancing... does he actually have to go through and add/remove cape trims every month by hand, or have I missed the joke?

Cheers.

The "DON'T POST NAMES" rule doesn't apply here, it's mainly for people accusing others of being scammers and such.
