On the other hand, with this news, I can start constructing my own guild database to reflect what information can already be received.
The problem with having an object is that it is tying something that is outside of the server into the server. That means that every use of the guild object would require a request outside of the gserver to the guild database, unless it is cached and then possible problems might arise with keeping things in sync.

Perhaps a requesttext/sendtext method might be better, like Warcaptain said. Then it is possible to control when requests are being thrown about, and it would be many times easier to implement.
