Q: Why do guilds cost 20,000 Gold?
A: Owning a guild is a big responsibility and a privilege. By requiring 20,000 Gold for your own guild we can assure that you have the experience and responsibility to own a guild. Also, by putting 20,000 Gold on the line, we can assure that you will be careful to follow the rules. No one wants to lose 20k!
Q: What is the fee to join a guild/Why is there a fee?
A: Guild Join fees are set by the guild Captain and vary for each individual guild. Joining fees contribute to guild funds and are non-refundable, even if you later leave the guild or are banned from it. Once gold is part of a guild fund, it remains there and cannot be taken back out to be given to any individual user. If you don't want to pay a join fee, just search for a guild that doesn't have one.
Q: Where does donated gold go?/I'm leaving/been banned and want my donation back!
A: Gold donated to guilds goes into the guild funds just like joining fees. Donations made to guilds are non-refundable, even if you leave the guild or are banned from it. There is no way to remove gold from guild funds and give it to any individual user, not even the guild Captain.
Q: How can I get rid of a guild?/Can I get a refund?
A: You can sell your guild to another user in the GGN Discussion forum if you don't want it anymore [n/a]. Another option if you don't want to sell it or can't find a buyer and don't want to look at it in your guild list anymore is give to a mule and ban yourself. There is no way to sell a guild 'back to Gaia' and get the 20k back that was paid to buy it the way that other items can be 'sold' back to the stores.
Q: I invited a user to join when I had my entry fee set to 100, but then I changed my entry fee to 0. When he joined, he was charged 100.
A: The entry fee that a user is charged is determined at the time of the invite or join request. Whatever you have your entry fee set at when you invite the user, that is the entry fee they will be charged.
