It's been suggested before in many games, but I think this game has just about the most perfect fit for it after Pirates of the Carribean Online. To go along with the guild scribe, how about a new profession, the shipwright. This would be an awesome way to encourage people to work together as a guild by making ships owned by the guild instead of individuals. With the endless sea, you could add a crazy number of islands, or even potentially a new gamemode similar to WvW, where fleets of ships band together or fight over islands. I think you could really do a lot with it, even if it was just a way to sail around a couple new maps it would be cool. A big new shipyard in lion's arch would fit really nicely too. I think it would really help to change the game up in an exciting way so the next expansion isn't a big let down. Imagine storming an island with a fleet of ships firing onto the battle as countless players jump onto land to fight it out. Awesome.
