Feedback:User/Will Greyhawk/Guild Ban List

I originally made this suggestion on the GW2Guru forums, but I was told that Arenanet can legally only take suggestions from the wiki...I'm taking that with a grain of salt....but just in case here ya'll go.

Lemme start by telling you a story. I've been a member (and over time an officer and a guild leader) of a certain, large guild alliance. During a certain period last year, our alliance was very heavily trolled by an individual and some of his friends. Our alliance leader had put him down as banned. However he (and his little cohorts) would get back in one of our guilds under a different name (but presumably the same account) and start a ruckus that usually had a few folks leave. We (the guild leaders) would tell our officers over and over again not to invite the guy, and this kid would still sneak in.

Now, you can give the lecture about how one shouldn't let trolls bother you, but the fact is they will get to everyone at some point. So don't bother there.

So, before I go too long here, I'd like to suggest that GW2, as part of its guild system, include wait amounts to a Banned List. The Guild Leader (or equivalent there of) can put names in the list in the guild interface, and like the Ignore List of GW1, that account will effectively cease to exist to that guild. It can't be invited ever. I believe that this tool could save Guild Leaders and their officers a few ulcers or two as well as help keep the peace within the guild.

Depending on how big guild will be in GW2, the size of the list could vary from 10 slots to 20 slots I suppose.
