Some new (more or less) news about the guild-system improvements coming in with the Cataclysm expansion popped up over at a Russian gaming convention. Here's what's been set so far by Blizzard.
Your guild will get experience for players earning rep, killing bosses, doing dailies, getting achievements, Arena and BG wins, crafting, leveling up, and more. The top 20 earners in the guild each week will have their contributions turned into XP. Previous contributions won't factor into a particular week's XP, so every member of the guild has the chance to be a top earner each week.
Guild experience, once accrued at the end of each week, will be converted into guild currency, which can be used to buy a myriad of items, including reagents, tabards, pets, profession recipes, heirlooms, and Guild Talent points.
Guild Talents will be things like a Mass Resurrection spell on a 30-minute cooldown, removal of reagents for buff spells, and increased gold drops in the world and instances. Guild leaders can respec guild talents, though the method and cost (if any) is currently unknown.
As your guild levels up, the amount of ingredients necessary for your guild recipes will get cheaper. An example would be lowering the number of Frozen Orbs (or the equivalent) necessary to craft a weapon by your guild blacksmith. The guild interface will also allow you to browse through any and all recipes available in your guild.
Guild-crafted heirlooms will cover every gear slot, according to (J. Allen) Brack, and, like any guild-crafted item, will remain bound to the guild. If you leave the guild, your Guild-Bound items will automatically deposit themselves back into the guild bank.
Guild achievements are also in the works, such as an achievement for crafting a legendary, or for getting a certain number of players to the maximum profession level. A guild can also get an achievement automatically if a certain percentage of players in the guild have it too. It's unknown if guild achievements will provide XP or currency.
Brack also noted new Armory improvements for Cataclysm, like RSS feeds for guild news and lists of all available guild recipes.
Lastly, it'll be possible to set up a guild tax so that an adjustable portion of all looted gold goes straight to the guild bank for every member. Further details on the feature are unknown.
Pretty much all the tier 10 helms are stupid looking. Warrior is far and away the best looking set, easily. I wish they'd just made epic and awesome unique looking sets rather than modeling them mostly after undead/northrend mobs. So far Tier 8 is the best looking set in WoTLK.
Eh, it works great in eve. It's pretty negligible, I mean you're not gonna miss 8% or whatever of your loot. And it's easier than donations or someone saying "please guys we need money pleaaaaaaaaaase"
I wonder if I can start a guild for poor retard lowbies, set the tax rate at 50% and then just let the money roll in. Gotta make an officer position that can invite, but not access the bank though.
I've never been a WoW Financial mogul, Cataclysm may be a good time to start.
If you invest gold for bank tabs, I can guarantee a 500% return on your investment!
It isn't all that hard.
1. Find something on the ah that people need but isn't being sold.
2. Get it and sell it
3. Play with rates by using alts to set prices
4. Repeat until someone starts to undercut you
5. Go back to step 1

Yeah but that takes effort and/or notes and spreadsheets.
I have enough gold for the forseeable future in any case. Though I'm sure it would be fun to run up to 100k or something.

Druid, rogue and warlock helms are pretty cool! The rest aren't really worse than anything else in WoW, except maybe the mage helm.
I like that there's a stronger aesthetic trend with this tier. Previous ones seemed mostly divorced from their surroundings, with a couple weird sets like Crystalforge or Dragonstalker thrown in. Even the more mundane ideas were executed pretty well this time.
Honestly, aside from shaman and warlocks, I thought tier 8 was pretty bland

So do shaman all walk in a line to hide their numbers now?
... to ensure the maximum amount of guild drama possible by poorly run guilds

Montina is rigging the draw so that you're her Secret Shambler as we speak
There will also often be something happening on Tuesday/Thursday at the same time.
Hopefully cool stuff happens on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
come raid for 2 hours
cleanse the palette
:I
Seriously.
I mean, if you're not having fun and need a break, sure.
But if it's just that single player stuff is more fun, is it really so bad to consider spending two hours with friends killing mans?
Don't be that guy!
Think of the children.
