Anyone have a method for tracking guild members? Right now i have a hotbutton which turns on log, then /who guild all, then turns off logging. i then use my log as a data file for a google spreadsheet, do some data manipulation and end up with a list of name/class/level. i then repeat on a fairly regular basis...

anyone have a better method?

The old-fashioned way.

You make a roster.

yes i think that is essentially what i am doing... was wondering if anyone had a more automated method

Nothing would really be reliable, as things like /role, /anon, and members being offline at any given time would result in incomplete results.

Every time you invite someone new....take their information and update it to your website.

As far as automatic goes, that comes in later expansions :p

This.
If having a accurate roster is important to you, don't make anyone an officer who can't handle the 30 second challenge of alt tabbing out when they do an invite.

write a bash script to parse the guild members from your log file!

/^\[([0-9]{1,3})\s([a-zA-Z]+)\]\s?([A-Za-z0-9]+)\<My\sSuper\sGuild\>/
