Could we at least be given a clue if there is any serious talk about assigning

I will also post this to ideas-wanted and general since I bet more then half

potential coder for priest guild out there, would I?

Agreed, but the guild has a coder, he first needs to pass it off if he doesn't
choose to continue working on the guild.

to take over priests, he can always talk to the toriginal guild creator, I'm
sure they can find some common language for guild's good.
What you suggest right now, is IMO low and really dirty thing.

gives a push to get hold on things.
Ok, if transfer of guild to another upsets wizard morality so much, why not
just assign him a 'helper'? I suppose it wouldn't be too improper to let
somebody else do the work that must be done?

Wow, i can't believe i'm still reading this thread. I'm with Favorit on this
one though...To actually suggest taking away someone else's code and start
changing it is quite lame and rude. How about you let me break into your
houses and take all your possessions? Same type of feeling. A lot of wizards,
and players alike, have real lives out side of bat, as absurd as that may be
to some of you. When it comes time to choose between tinkering with a guild
and keeping a roof over my head and food in my stomach, you'll be damned sure
I'm choosing the latter. Realize we code because we want to, not specifically
to cater to whatever demands players may think they're authorized to give.
With attitudes like yours, I see no reason why he should code improvements at
all, ever.

has other interests, like real life, and has absolutely NO time to code
anything, maybe he should be asked if he would let anyone change it? If it's
SUCH private and important property (among his other interests and property),
then it might be possible for you wizards to discuss it with the said person?
If this 'property' thing is really the case, of course it's rude to just take
it away and change whatever. But talking should be at least tried, no?

commenting a lot and making spec how the stuff works.

has been a bit hostile though.... But still, there hasn't been much
changes in priests since Aarugotti's times. Recent small changes
by Juggelo didn't do that much really, just some tweaking.
Anyway, different wizards take over different guilds occasionally,
for various reasons (look at "new" barbarians for example, quite
good result from new guildmaster). Of course coren should be
consulted in this matter, but if somebody steps up, there's no reason
to hold him/her back. The code's more or less collective effort
after all.
And yes, priests could use some facelift. Habo, habo, habo, habo,
habo, habo. Rais the dead people. Habo, habo, habo.

PS: I do like being a priest, and harm body is quite nice, it
after all does the same damage as mageblasts

Noone ASSIGNS anything. Noone is OBLIGED to do anything. Believe me, if there
was a wizard eagerly wanting to do something to priests he would have spoken
to Coren by now. If you are one, talk to Coren, then to arches about your
immorting. (As Gore already stated in his flame post).

And, keep up the good work with the guilds - its not an persoanl offensive
against your virtual ego even if someone says you SHOULD do something, and I
guess most of the wizards who didn't take Merioli's post as a personal threat
can agree that priests (and some more guilds) need bit work.
(ps. dont repeat what Gore always says : you're not obliged to do anything,
you're doing all coding for the good of your hearts etc bullshit - we all know
you're building your virtual ego by coding and gaining levels, feeling worthy
and gaining respect from newbies as almight wizard :DDDDD)

go talk to Coren and immort now, and then WORK, WORK, listen to the
