I'm kinda worried about the "Lower level enemies are now able to damage higher level players". Kinda stinks for players who worked really hard on buying a high level boat and working on their sailing and all that jazz. I guess we'll see how it works out.

Thanks for posting!

I happened to look at the Guild member list yesterday, and it is now set up like the Friend's tab. There were no other guild members on at the time, but my own name was bumped to the top of the list and had a green dot next to it.
