What's that saying about anonymity and the internet? *sigh*
Another Blizzard "feature" that's currently driving me crazy is the public guild notes. There's a guild control setting that allows you to turn it on and off for each rank, however that means anyone can edit anyone else's note with no log of who is doing the changing. This can be a fun game, or a source of hurt feelings and misunderstanding. Usually for us it's the former, every once in a while, someone tries to be clever and it winds up being the later.
Ideally? The settings would include an option for members to edit only their personal note. Or even their personal note and those of people of lower rank (similar to promote/demote/kick settings).
I can't complain too loudly, given the size of our guild we do remarkably well with avoiding the drama, and overall the membership is pretty mature...it's just that 1% of the time that sends me down that "What was Blizzard thinking?" road.
The solution? Well for now I'll see if a little reminder that "this sort of thing isn't cool with me" does the trick, and if it doesn't I'll turn off the option for a while.

In my guild we use the notes for very specific purposes: 1) the character's professions, and 2) when the character was recruited and by whom.
I think if we let members just write whatever they wanted it would be chaotic and we would no longer have that easily visible important information right in game. Thus, only Officers and GMs can edit the information.
