4.3 Guild Leader MIA Feature |
With the introduction of patch 4.3, guilds will have more control over their leadership in cases where the leader goes MIA. After 30 days have passed, guild leadership will be able to be passed to a high-ranking and active individual to help continue cultivating a guild’s progression.
With the introduction of this feature, customer support will no longer intervene in guild leadership disputes. The matters of leadership and guild organization are meant for the guild to discuss and arrange, and we want to stress that leadership decisions should be made after thoughtful contemplation for and by those involved.
--------------------
I have to say this feature has pretty much sealed the deal for me. I will probably never return to Azeroth for any reason. I had a small guild with a few random players in it. It served no real purpose accept storage, casual guild leveling and communication.
The patch kicks in and I received no warning, no message at all about someone being able to take over my guild. I checked my battle.net account and my email address is correct and current. I also checked my "All" and "Spam" email folders, nothing.
In short I have lost all the extra storage that I purchased, the items contained within and 15,000 in gold.
Dirty pool Blizzard.

Yeah, the guilds shouldn't be able to be passed if there was no progression that was lost. Gah!

I, on the other hand, prefer a command-line system 'cause i'm so hardcore
/north /north *You encounter an [Avatar of the god Set]!*
/cast sheild *sheild spell unavailable*
/csat shield *csat: unknown command*
*[Avatar of Set] beheads [Peasant]*

If you're gone for 30+ days you don't deserve to be a guild leader.

I just had my five minute hissy fit on the support forums. Obviously they don't give two craps about my little casual bank guild.
Consider me the 1,500,001 sub they have lost this year.

You cared so much about the guild that you were gone for more than 30 days.
Got it.

Then he/she deserves to lose their guild. Sorry, I feel this is a good change.

I auto lost it to some nub that does not even play.
The feature says it will send you notification and it does not. I know how to check a spam folder and a all mail folder. I receieved no notification at all.
This was not a raiding guild. This was not an RP guild. This was not a PVP guild.
This was a guild with a few random people in it. That's only purpose was to serve as a casual means for those people to have a few guild lvls. It was also my alternate banking space.
I'm not sure how I don't deserve to be a leader of that. Retarded.

Well the person got the GM position, so they obviously play more than you. Absentee guild leaders aren't leaders. They're burdens.
Maybe next time you'll respect your position and play your role the way you should have.
