In a recent interview that Reinheart was kind enough to translate for us, they actually mention this. They state that they realize that the game is missing basic fundamentals, and that they're working on introducing them. As to when, I don't know. Probably going to see a lot more stuff being added once the battle system updates are finished. That and server issues.

Also, I love the idea of the thread. I also hope they end up implementing player ships, as they mentioned they would last year. Again, I think they said they're looking into it, just can't yet. As for Guild Housing, I know EQ2 did this pretty well, as did CoX. The headquarters in CoX were pretty fairly customizable. And you could upgrade it more based on how much fame/notoriety your guild had.
