Many guilds have been deleted by a moment of madness and this effects many players who have invested a lot of hard work and time, DragonStorm in EN10 or K being the latest guild to be deleted in a moment of madness.
Theres at least 2 other theads discussiing other ways to add some control on how a guild is disolved and i do not like those proposals as they are very complicated and difficult to code.
So i would like to propose the following
1) if one founder - they have the right to disband as they want
2) if 2 founders, then there must always be 2 founders in the guild at all times and both must delete the guild or it is not deleted
3) if 3 or more founders, a majority 'of the founders' must delete the guild
No Serious big guild will have just one founder, the jobs too big these days for one person, so suspect 2 and 3 above would be the most used solutions. These are simple ideas and easliy implemented by the dev team.
Re the problem of an inactive Founder:
If a founder is inactive FOE already has a process in place today to allocate the founder role to "TWO" voted players. a player in the guild must notifiy support and explain that founder has left for more than 60 days and that guild is holding a vote using the guild forum vote process. Once the vote ends they ask support to give founder rights to the top 2 players in the vote and of course support can see the vote so have proof that it was fair and that the guild took part in it before allocating the new founders. This has been in place for over 2 years now and we used this in the guild Bezerkers in beta to remove an absent founder and allocate myself and another player as new founders.

Edit: added "'of the founders' to line "3) if 3 or more founders, a majority must delete the guild" to help those that needed to understand that only founders can disolve a guild.
