"Throwing a nerf bomb at the gladiator system undermines the value of joining a guild."

And that is the reason why I never joined guild and brawl before the announcement of the Conscript. I can't use it for rank so why would I waste time joining guilds? Yes, I do get SPS but they also require weekly donations of SPS. It's like, "Hey, we'll give you three bread if you give us four. sounds fair?"
