The thing that confuses me is this idea that the devs created this clause as an 'attack' or something against 1 or 2 particular guilds. That seems pretty ridiculous to me.
They stated that the marauders will have the same rules the other factions have had for years and years. No matter what your opinion on organization vs faction is, it is a simple idea. (IMO Maru is defined as a faction simply because you can't be karavan/maruader or kami/marauder at the same time.)
If you want to look at the RP, it fits the Maru ideal doesn't it? That whole 'all the other factions/civilizations are fools!' mentality does conflict with being in a guild with all those fools. :P (Insert Maru roar here)
I can understand newer players up in arms with the guild restrictions and such, but that is how it has always been. Marauder, being an 'official' new faction, just took a little longer to implement (due to the fame issues Placio quoted, it seems.) The rule is not new, guys and gals. (Yes I know Marauder has been around since the beginning but not as an official faction like it is now.)
It isn't like they are telling us who to be friends with or not (and who to hang out with). I got friends across all factions/civs/languages that I hang out with all the time!
But I wouldn't feel right if a karavan or marauder were in my guild, as much of a friend as they are to me.
