Guilds can apply for a unique color. To do so, your guild must have at least 10 active members on 10 different accounts. Active members are players who put a lot of time and effort into the game. All members of your guild must show above average roleplay at all time.
The staff will decide by voting, if a guild deserves or does not deserve guild colrs. If the application is accepted, the guild master will be allowed to buy a guild color for 100.000 gold. This can only be bought from an Admin or Co-Admin.
This has been a very common request in the last years, and we're looking to start handling them. I realize the requirements might be a bit off for the actual size of the server, so I'd like to start a review on those rules.
#1: Should the 10 member apply?
#2: I feel at this point that most of Pangaea community has grown beyond the need of having babysitters. I therefore trust that guilds shouldn't have to "deserve" the colors in the GM's eyes. It's been mostly a formality for years, so I don't see a reason for keeping them in the rules.
It was needed back in the day when we had like 100 members running around making a guild every other day for sure.
Nowadays? nah.. just put up a price and let people buy the colors they want.
Staff should not actually be involved in selling the guild colors either, but that is for another discussion somewhere else I suppose before I incite more of a riot here.

Sorry about that, this one got out of control.
On more serious note, there should be some sort of requirement instead of just gold for the guild color. Be it activity, RP or stories as soon as staff deems it ok to give a guild or a player the guild colour I am ok with it. As long as it's not just "Yay I made new guild so I get kewl color" but you actually earn it on some level.
Now gimme a color!
