Give us the classic tools to do so?

People will be camping dungeons hardcore within a day

Having classic features ready for launch, man this is exactly the time not the wrong time

In a perfect world where we have a company of thousands of programmers supporting us? Sure. But in the real world, with our tiny 100% volunteer staff, do you truly feel being able to /guildwar on day 1 is more important than other classic stuff (eg. getting the lighting working)?

I'm not saying "/guidlwar sucks", I'm just saying, anything the devs do has an opportunity cost of not doing something else. They have to prioritize, and I just don't think adding /guildwar before it's practical to use it is a priority.

I honestly don't know how minor it is, but it can't be too minor: this is not the first time the command has been mentioned, and if it was that easy the staff would have done it long ago.

Plus, again, there's classic /guildwar implementation, and there's Rogean's plans for the future of PvP. If the two are connected (100% Loramin speculation), the staff has more to figure out than just how to make /guildwar work classically (ie. the logistics of how it and any other PvP stuff they have planned will interact, not just the code).

But you completely ignored my larger point: wishing the staff would do more doesn't make them capable of doing more. And you also didn't answer:
