Guessing this is a client issue more than anything, but the name plate should all be on a single line with the <Guild> being at the end of the name.

Fairly certain it's been mentioned before but my internet detective skills have not returned any result.

Do you know when it was changed to two-lines (on Live)? My guess would be 2001, when AA Titles were implemented.

Found this screenshot dated 2001 that has it still a one-liner:

Luclin strikes again!

This is indeed a client issue. Hopefully it will eventually be changed.

As far as when it was moved, I *think* it was when the classic (velious) UI was no longer useable. This came months after Luclin release though. Opting to use the Luclin UI from the beginning, I believe, would have shown the guild tag beneath the name.

Still using Velious UI, yet Luclin models and AA titles were present.

I wasn't able to find a screenshot of the Luclin UI depicting players still having right-aligned guild tags.

Guild Tag on the same line as the player seems to only be available using the Velious Interface.

Can see this on EQMac.

Using the old Interface everything will show on one line.

Using the new Luclin Interface the guild name will be under the player.

I don't think there was a certain date when this was changed, it was only dependent on the Interface you were using.
