SG == elitist in your head? Interesting.
Well, elitist in the sense that "it's better to be amongst ourselves than include outsiders" in this case.

Re: elitist.
Well, this does encourage people to team constantly with only other team mates. It probably isn't elitist, but it does promote exclusivity.
That said, most SGs/Guilds who level together will tend to kick non-member team mates in favour of members, so I don't see it changing much.
Not signed. Adds nothing to the game aside from even faster levelling.

In that case the appropriate derogatory term's probably "cliquey" rather than "elitist".
Although as the whole point of SGs is to set up a group of people who help each other (with an implicit "rather than anyone else") I don't see this suggestion being contrary to the way the game's meant to be played.
On which note: /signed

Not really; the suggestion was for a prestige bonus, not an xp one.

I dont know what sg's you have been involved with.
We may put SG members 1st when forming teams but we dont get rid of non members to make spaces.
I dont think iv seen that happen at all in fact, except maybe to go do an all sg task force or something.

No need to be such a nitpicker. I'm comparing to the complexity of most suggestions I read in this section.

This suggestion has nothing to do with experience. It might end up speeding the xp rate tho, since you'll be teaming with your fellas who actually care bout teamplay.

I dont know what game you play but last time i looked you need xp not prestige to lvl, i think you need to read things before you go of the deep end.
Good idea would give people a reason to team.
Prestege bonus seems reasonable. Good idea.
I really should do something about this signature.
The only real problem I'm seeing is that there has already been cases where people have been kicked from SGs for not playing in SG mode. This might increase with this addition.

I don't, and didn't make the assumption it was. Point is, assuming it's easy just displays your ignorance and will make no difference to whether the idea is implemented.
However, basic axioms:
Any change is harder than the idiot suggesting it thinks it is.
Any change is harder than designing it in from the start.
Re the prestige/XP thing. I misread. Which makes your sarcy response rather amusing to me and changes my mind.
Signed since it'll make no difference to me and doesn't lead to even faster leveling.

Yeah I like it lots, would help with the Elfling invasion of Union. Plus our regular teams usually have 2 or 3 Sg members in them anyway.

As our SG has regular teams every day, I think it's a great idea!

mmmmmm does that make me elitist?

Grants a small prestige bonus per SG mate in team.
This shouldn't be too hard to implement. It's basically a way to reward those who play a lot with their SG folks. As for the percentage of bonus, I'd go with something like this:
Total of SG members in team
% Prestige bonus
1 = 0%
2 = 5%
3 = 8%
4 = 13%
5 = 17%
6 = 21%
7 = 25%
8 = 30%
Whaddya think?
[/ QUOTE ]/unsigned.
Make it so EVERY team member gets the bonus and then I'll agree. Why should only one group get the benefit? Make it boost the team's prestige return so every participant's group reaps the reward

i dont have an overall opinion tbh but this is how i could see things go if such thing was intro'd
most teams would be made up of sgs only and lower the chance of getting teams. / teams for long.
for me its not a signed or unsigned. but a /maybe.
its not a bad suggestion though. dont get many about pres these days.

got to agree here, some very small SG's don't make the 8 team members, let alone being online at the same time.
so as long as it's in every team whenever it's only you in a SG or the whole team, i signed it.
Its definitely a good idea. And, implemented right, it shouldnt be a down-point for people who dont have/dont want a SG.
The Prestige boost for everyone sounds interesting. As with most interesting suggestions, it would need to be a case of correct implimentation.

I'm not sure it's needed if there are 8 of you from the same SG playing together the SG gets pres from each of you anyway. That being the case I'd rather developement time was used on other things.
I'm also concerned that it would make teaming for people not in a big SG harder, simply because SG members would want to team together for the extra pres. This seems unfair on those people, which IMO isn't right.
im sorta on the fence on this one altho it is a good idea to get sgs teaming together and working together i can see this being another nail in the coffen for the smaller freinds only sgs that has only a small handful of members.
as for how it would effect teaming this one i cant desdie either after all might limit some people to who they invite to teams but it could also encourage sgs that are coalitioned to team as a team made up of 3 or 4 from two sgs would benifit them the same using these numbers both sgs would earn 13% bonus which over the course of a few 8 man missions would definetly add up
There isnt a problem on earth that cant be solved with the proper aplication of hi explosive's

Edit: Obviously, if one of the members isn't in SG mode, the bonus is null. Say in a team of 8 SG members, two of them aren't in SG mode then the bonus would be 21%.
