I tried to block... but everyday is a new bunch of new players, and i'm supossed to block them all? At the end of the week i might have more than a half of classic players blocked. And stuff keeps happening while you spend your time telling who's spamming and who's leading xD
I know, it's a way to solve it, but if the question is 'What do you think can be done to improve towering?', i have to say what i said.

I know ppl who have countless pages full of blocked players. I still think it would be nice if at least co-leads could give powers, otherwise the only other power that should be romoved from guild leaders is handing out the hats. Like I said in my last post the Reward system needs changed so leaders dont have the power to choose who and when the hats are given out. I also agree with Thallen that the reward tier system is waaayy over due over a change to encourage guilds to continue on instead of recycling.  

The main problem with towering is the people. 2010-early2012 players want a challenge (basically). Late2012-now players want a quick reward. So figure out a way to satisfy both groups. A few ideas...
Allies
Remove allies. This removes subs and makes it to where there is only truly 25 people in a guild(gotta feeling there'll still be subs somehow but oh well) making a guild only have 25 member makes tower more of a challenge since some people aren't on at the same time.
Rewards
Give out rewards every month. Special rewards could be given out every season of a year and a grand prize given out every year. Monthly rewards can be gifted to top 3 guilds with the most hours. Special rewards given to the top 2. And grand rewards given to the top guild. Rewards only given to 25(read previous idea) members. This adds more competition between guilds.(you can keep 1k,5k,10k if you want but I don't see the point in this) Admins might have to change leaderboards for this though.
Reward ideas
Might need to make the rewards different to a couple ideas of mine were reopen some old shops for the winning guilds,(40k room, old nexus, etc.) items(polos, juggling things, etc.), you get the picture. Now you may start the hate on my ideas

1. Yes allies/Subs should be gone
2. No and this has been suggested and discussed before. Bad idea there are to many dominant guilds,and you would be most likely handing out "prizes" to the same guilds monthly or seasonally or what ever time frame you use. IMO while that might encourage more competition it just doesn't seem like it would necisarrily be fair to the entire towering community specially if you get rid of allies. And besides would you want to see SON getting a reward every 4 months??? HELL NO.
3.Yes rewards need changed. I still think its best to find away to reward ppl for the work they put in as part of a guild or group rather than rewarding a guild as a whole. That alone would get rid of hat chasing,and take the power of HAT decisions away from Guild leaders meaning less drama.

I mean to restrict a guild to only 25 members. Ways to do this is make a 1 month contract between leader and members. Leaders cannot kick member for 1 month and members cannot leave guild for 1 month. If guild has co leads, the contact can be extended for 3 months, 6 months, etc. of course a player can still have multiple tags.

Also how about re adding tower challenges? I remember when I was in nal pre 5k shadow I would check to see how much we had and if was more than 8 I would ask for a challenge. Most of the time shadow said no but the few times he said yes they were fun to me.  

Delete everything.  

1 hat to give away at 2k instead of 1k and 2 separate hats at 5k?

I was trying to agree that it should be restricted down to the same 25 members,but contracts are bad. It wouldn't be good to lock ppl into only being able to be in one guild,and not be able to leave. It also wouldn't be good if the guild leads where unable to kick ppl who where inactive because they where under contract.

Challenges sound good. Not sure how that would work exactly tho.

I think if they made the reward tiers more even it would be at least a little bit better. Say every 2.5k you get a reward instead of 1k,5k and 10k.
