The fact that PUGs are toxic and mean at times are _not_ a viable argument for guilds taking control for this game mode. Period. End of. Guilds are _not_ "the server", as you claim, they are _a part_ of the server, they are _in_ the server. Guilds are no more important than PUGs and everyone else. That is ALL that I have said.

Such nonsense honestly.
Of course guilds should be given the power to organize WvW. You will never have a good balanced WvW system if guilds are given so much less power and Pugs are being permanently transferred from one server to another with the server-linking matchup.
And frankly, this whole WvW alliance system isn’t only about WvW, it is also about guilds in general.
Truth is guilds in general pretty much needs a strong overhaul because even in PvE, guilds are pointless and there are barely an endgame goal. And the thing is you need guilds in PvE to organize the less popular and needed events as much as you guilds in WvW to pop-up a tag just so that some Pugs can take part in WvW general activity.
That is also why they haven’t released the Alliance system imo: as much as it is cool to have guilds being a strong driving force in the hypothetical Alliance system, it won’t do any good to the game if the incentive to join one in the first place isn’t there.
