I am the only currently active member in my guild. No one else has logged in in over a year, I am not the guild leader at the moment, is it possible to petition Daybreak to become the guild leader so I can manage the guild. I don't want a new guild. In fact, I would like to start recruiting for the guild I am currently in. Thanks , Cynn
There used to be a function on the guild page where you could vote for a new leader, think it took a week. I used that for my guild on that started on Lucan and then was dropped on Crushbone and now Maj'Dul. I petitioned for another of my guilds that is now on AB. So I would try and find the vote function first and if it is not there, then send a petition in. Cyrrena
Added guild leader voting commands for leaderless guilds: If you are a guild Officer, you may now use the command /initiate_guild_leader_vote to initiate the guild leader voting process if your guild does not currently have an active guild leader (no leader has not logged in within 60 days). Anytime during the voting process, if a leader logs in they can cancel the voting process using the command /cancel_guild_leader_vote. But don't ask me what to do if you're not an officer hehe
You can petition Daybreak for a leaderless guild process. It takes a month and anytime during the voting process, if a leader logs in they can cancel the voting process. If you DO become guild leader, be aware that guilds die quickly if recruiting is not an ongoing process. I have rebuilt my guild 5 times now. I recruit 15 -20 people at a time hoping 5 stick through the first few months. Those 5 are the best of the best, tho, and for that reason, I look forward to recruiting all the time.
It really sucks, that I am the only left in my guild. We have only one leader and three officers. The leader has not logged on in 199 days. The officers in over a year. I tried petitioning but they marked it solved with a link to what Korucuu posted. Unfortunately I am not an officer. I have worked hard to get the guild where it is level 144... and now I have to leave. IT REALLY SUCKS: Why can't Daybreak, just add and addendum so that if the leaders and officers have not been on in 100 days or more, then any member can petition to initiate a vote? Just a thought...
Best to leave an alt in that guild for nostalgia and move to a more active guild. The game is just much more fun when you are with an active bunch.
I empathize with Benjamen here. I had to abandon a level 345 guild on HOF for the same reasons. There should be an auto-promote built into the guilds for this sort of thing. 60 days or so seems fair. If somebody can't log on for 30 seconds within 2 months to hold onto a leadership role, they probably don't deserve it anyway.
