I think it would be a good idea if all newcomers were not allowed to participate in GCs. That way, if someone is on reprimand in the guild for bad behaviour and/or breaking GC rules etc etc, they can be demoted to newcomer by the right hands and leaders to serve a 1 (or more) GC yellow card. A real punishment basically.
So, you want to punish ALL 'newcomers'! What about the new teams, who have just started the game? Or ones' who have left another Guild for a genuine reason?
Perhaps you misunderstand. When you are in a guild, there are 4 statuses that you can have. Newcomer (automatic when you first join or rejoin a guild), Experienced, Right Hands (do the admin and police the guild generally) and Leaders (general oversight, guild long-term strategy and guild relations with other guilds). At the moment, the only real difference between Newcomer and Experienced is that they can't invite people.
Regarding the ones who have left a guild for a genuine reason, when they join a new guild they are excluded from playing a GC game for 48 hours anyway, so I'm not quite getting your point there. In those 48 hours, a right hand will just make the player Experienced and he's in the next GC (unless he's yellow-cared right away for being a douche, chop, dick or English of course!)
