We all know that what makes a a MMORPG great are the people you play with.  Without a strong guild or friend list, the game becomes stale, regardless of how good it is.  I've noticed a lot of gripes with PvP, World PvP, long queue times, etc. which all stem from feeling like you are the only one trying to play the game in this way.  Sure, people on the forums can relate to you, but rarely do you play on the same server/region/country/etc.  
 
Why not change all that?  
 
I propose a "Scribe" type profession and a bulletin board per zone/faction/server  (set up similarly to the AH).  The purpose of this class would be to write simple documents such as: quests, LFG signups, IOUs, Annoucements, Polls, PVP bounties (world, arena, bg, etc) etc.  As they level up, they are able to post to the larger bulletin boards.  
 
Examples:  
-  Setting up a signup sheet for a world boss a hour ahead of time. 
-  Posting a reward for killing a enemy faction player who has been griefing you in the bgs all day.  
-  Posting a reward for killing your guildie for being a poopie head  =D
-  Actually finding a dungeon group with the old feeling of evaluating them for your guild or you know, at least willing to talk to each other.  
-  Big PvP guild annoucing they are doing Rated pvp at a set time for all folks interested in competing.  
-  Offering alternate quests that still count as a daily. 
-  Missed connections?  lol
-  Tournaments.  
-  Top end crafting:  LF Brutal - Helm specced Armorsmith (or something like that)
-  Random crafting requests - LF full set of Walatiki heavy armor (Same tax as if it were AH to maintain gold sink).  
-  Give me 10 hamburgers today for 10g tomorrow.  (and have the game put a lien on income if they default).  
 
 
The gold sink can be paper and ink, with the rewards based on the type/complexity of the contract.  Filled upon completion or other type of criteria.  
 
 
This is a social game and Carbine has given us a lot of options to manage different levels of people we know through circles, friends, guilds,  etc, but have not let us meet each other more easily.  I think this can work, how do the rest of you feel?  
 
 
edit:  Yes, I was inspired by Log Horizon.
