To try and answer your questions, Seannewboy. Each time I log on, I will check both rosters to see if there is anyone that's been invited in my absence. The majority of the time, I am the only one on in LOS. I think we are missing each other just because of the different times we log on. Right now, I am currently the one on the most with invite capabilities. I am currently working on trying to get in touch with the remainder of the members that have yet to transfer to The Harbinger. While there are several Captains when you look at the roster, most of those belong to the same people so in reality we don't have a whole lot of people that can invite. Would you be interested in joining their ranks? I tried to get as many as possible so we wouldn't have any invite issues and for the most part we haven't. I have always told anyone that finds they are having difficulty getting an invite, they are more than welcome to send me a PM via the website and I will log on when they do to extend them an invite. So far, only one person has had to use that. (Unfortunately, that even "runs into a wall" because many of our members have never been back to the website since they registered and I have no other way to reach people :( ) It's quite possible when you saw that invite request it was me, because I transferred my last 2 characters over during the time you mentioned and they were carrying the contents of the guild banks which have been returned to each of our tabs.
I am not trying to "offer" any of this as an excuse in any way shape or form, but am trying to answer the topics you have brought up. As much as I might like to, I can't do everything and I can only play one side or another at any particular time. My biggest wish has always been that there would be some way I could "monitor" both sides at the same time, but developers have never allowed that in any game, so we have to use the current arrangement. :S ) Our membership is still international, all of our members log on at different times of the day and time differences are always going to be an issue. We are basically having to rework everything as if the guilds are brand new, so if you have ANY suggestions, I am all ears. :) The next item I am going to be trying to work on is getting Officers appointed but that means we have to have members who are willing to take on more responsibility and that too has always been an issue. Real life takes precedent. Another thing that causes some issues is many of our members are playing more than one game at a time. Look at the "Other gaming" category in the forums for evidence to that. If people are playing other games, they're not logging into SWTOR so where does that leave us? Unfortunately, until the developers figure out they need to release new content more often than they do (and not in dribs and drabs like they have been), people aren't going to want to focus on just this game and that alone is going to keep our numbers way down. :(
But again, I eagerly await any suggestions anyone may have that are workable. I'd rather not be the only one responsible for everything because that never ends well..... :blink:
