This subject has been brought up a few times/paces with 4.0.1, yet not received any blue comments I have found. This actually affects my playing enjoyment and many of my guild mates as well. There was no patch note about it and numerous things we have tried to fix it seems to do nothing. Figure here maybe it will get some responses.

The issue is that Achievements seem to no longer report in guild chat if they are earned in a guild group. Though even that being the cause for not reporting seems to not encompass it all. An example we were doing a quick little 10man Ulduar got several more people their Champion of Ulduar, none messages reported to guild. Did some pvp, saw a person who was pugging bgs get Stormtrooper. Yet the guild group did a Resilient Victory with no announcement in guild. Also had an alt hit 60 with no guild announce.

We are in a guild to play together. We like to see what people are accomplishing. It was nice to see in a raid when 15people earned their Meta Achievement mounts. It was also a great thing to see the huge spam for your first heroic kills of a boss or completing a wing. Further to not see when someone out there alone did something makes the achieves much less fun.

This sounds a bit odd, Lawn as I've done some recently and they DID still show in guildchat.

This sounds like either they were turned off or perhaps some UI issue is interfering with them being reported. The player in question must have that turned on, and I'd recommend doing a full reset UI as well.

To do a full reset UI, you will want to save your addons in another spot if you wish to preserve them.

Then rename/delete or move your WTF, Cache and Interface folders while WoW is shutdown. Reboot your system.

Note, if you are running Vista make sure your permissions are set so it does not undo your changes.

More detailed instructions for different operating systems, including Macs are here.
