Trigger alert: I have opinions.

- We absolutely cannot have full judgments being a requirement for PG advancement in any way, shape, or form. We do not have the activity levels to support something like that. For each full judgment someone gets to get, that's one less opportunity for a guildmate to earn AP off a workshop in order to fund their own group-furthering full judgment. That kind of system would cannibalize itself incredibly quick, and nobody would get any sort of advancement--especially if workshops themselves cost AP to get.

- On that note, maybe we should shelve the whole PG system for the time being. We do not currently have the user base to support multiple active PGs (let alone the single PG we have at this point), no matter what sort of incentives you tack onto them. Our biggest focus should be recruitment and retention. That's not to say you should forbid the forming of groups for people to join; we just have bigger problems to tackle at the moment before we can figure out how to implement a system of rewards and incentives.

- When activity increases to a point where it's feasible to implement a PG system again, it would be wise to keep it as simple as possible. Maybe keep the max roster of a group to a reasonable minimum--perhaps six or seven, definitely no more than eight. But encourage people to make their own PGs based on their goals and the stories they'd like to tell, rather than jam twenty people into a group with very vague and nebulous goals beyond having the most bloated roster on the site because it looks cool.
