I like GbG the way it is, because I like GbG the way it is. I don't care the effect GbG may or may not have on your alliances in GvG, I don't GvG. I also don't think the destruction of GvG alliances is a bad thing, but that's an aside, irrelevant to the discussion at hand which is, GbG doesn't need the controls you're asking for, as you say yourself. Problem is you don't want to grow into a better style of leadership, you want to change GbG into GvG 2.0. Sorry, that dog don't hunt in these woods.
So there you go. No controls needed. The smart ones who asked for them, don't need them anyway. Case closed.
And that means jack in GbG. And that's your problem. All your experience out the window, you are now a little fish in a very big pond. All you have with your points is intimate understanding about GvG. You and I have the same experience level on GbG. Your GvG knowledge means nothing in this thread, it just tells me you've got 5 years of baggage and bad habits you want to drag forward into Battlegrounds. No. I vote to keep your GvG baggage and bad habits in GvG. We don't need it here in GbG.
Remember, you're the one asking for changes. We're saying leave it 'as is.' Sorry, but you've got nothing to offer us in the new world that entices us to support your making it like the old world. Adapt or die.
What facts? Your one week of stellar experience in GbG? The one week where you've been unable to educate and corral your people? The one week of such chaos you were forced to come here asking for an electronic fence to lock your members into a place you can't lead them to go? Those facts? Sound to me like you're failing as a leader in GbG. You realize your experience and reputation mean nothing, even in your own guild, and now need Inno to change the game to paper over your leadership cracks. Sure. I'll wager a water.
But that's not what you're asking for. You're not asking for the ability to grant rights to large groups of guild members, you're asking for the ability to take rights away from a large group of guild members who ALREADY have those rights! Who are you to take another player's rights away? Who are you to limit another player's ability to play the game? Their play has no cost or effect on the guild. Stop trying to take other player's rights away from them. Don't limit their freedom, earn their allegiance. Time to actually be a leader, not just in title and user rights. You want to wager a water too?
