Regardless, for 99% of the players 99% of the time, this number is irrelevant. If you don't stay in your guild, perhaps you don't deserve to do guild content for a while.
There's all sorts of reasons a person might move guilds. I can't think of any of them that would warrant punishing someone in their new guild where they're getting a fresh start. I also can't think of a way that mercing makes sense anymore. There's no way to make it more worthwhile than staying with your guild and doing the current content.
Perhaps they could institute the cool-down on raids if someone moves more than twice in a certain time period. That way players wouldn’t be penalised for a move, but would stop mercing.
Is mercing still a thing? It's objectively bad for the merc account (unless they're taking cash on the side to do it, i guess? Is that a thing?). But sure - two guild moves in the span of a week could trigger the events cooldown or something - that would be a fair way to do it.
I know of people that have moved guilds because of direct and/or indirect harassment, and other reasons that have nothing to do with the game - I think it's lame that anyone should have to take a hit on rewards because they're trying to get out of a bad situation.
