Guild NPC Merchants aren't cheap and we want it to feel even more rewarding to have them in our guild halls, along side having guild members not feel the need to hop all over the maps to get a rune trader merchant, etc.

Anet CAN do this and they should.

For every purchase made to a npc in that particular gulid hall, the guild leader should get a 50% to 25% commission. If the leader buys something from his own hall, the comission don't apply (but it would be nice if it did anyway). The rest of the profits would go to whoever's been getting the profits anyway.

I think you miss the point of those merchants. They're in game as a gold sink, removing gold from the economy to help keep prices at a reasonable level. If you make the gold sink less efficient, the prices on everything go up. Unless, of course, you're looking forward to the day an ecto costs 100 plat?

Anet can do this, and they should NOT.

Any successful guild I've been in has grown as guild, thus has contributed as a guild. This means that any guild I've been in, the guild leader has not solely funded the guild hall. It's also incredibly unfair to the members who never had the chance to contribute, yet the guild leader makes a profit off their use? Just sounds really, really stupid. There's a price to pay for having a guild - this is it.

Nope, and I am a guild leader!!

Me and 2 officers bought all of the NPC's, not expecting any reward other than the simple convinience of having them there.

I dont even own a guild and have never been interested in having one, but because of how great my guild leaders have been in the past, I would like to agree with this idea because it gives a little back to the people that bother to waste their time to setup and manage a guild.

Also, a new person to a guild with a fully equipped hall likely wont ever contribute much to it anyway.

It doesnt have to be much, maybe just 1% from each sale, but it is a decent idea.

Just as long as the player doesnt pay any extra, why should it matter?

Nope, I am serious that I support this idea.

Every tom dick and harry will run of to try and create a guild to try and get rich, and I can stay in one without these people XD.

Make it so enticing for the idiots to form their own guilds that I can find one that they are not a part off.

Yay! /signed.

You know, all the people that ask silly questions in Guild Chat like 'How do I make money?'

You tell them to start their own guild and maybe they'll go away XD

we already have too many inactive, crazed, childish and/or whiny guild leaders out there--this will just make more of them.

For those who don't know it costs a lot of gold to get the npcs. 10k to 100k for all the npcs. And Guild leaders and officers should be able to get a comission off purchases players make with the npcs they bought for their guild. like a 10%comission. That's not trolling. You can't troll to make gold to buy the npcs. YOu take the time to buy the npcs for your hall, the reward should be fulfilled for convenience of all sorts.

So I could buy a guild from someone who as hall the npcs and buy lock picks for really cheap and sell them to other ppl for higher prices. That would be nice lol.
