I had founded a guild to experience what it is like to start a guild from scratch - it was a great experience, but I always knew I would only stay a little while. Another player joined the guild and I thought the guild was safe to leave, as that new member took over founder's rights. I left the "holiday" guild. In the meantime that player became inactive and also became unreachable for the next 2 new members to reach and they have now no way of doing GE, as the founder has quit the game. INNO's rules were explained to me and INACTIVE Bronze age players, which this player is, will be removed after being 1 month inactive, BUT the inactive player is still there, DOING NOTHING - So please INNO do your job and remove that inactive player.(Agent327)Even inactive he remains the founder. If you do not like it you can leave the guild. As a member you have no say in a founder having to be active or not.
That's the worst reply any one could come up with
Games aren't meant to run with obsolete players.
I was told by INNO moderator that when the founder leaves the guild, the founder has given up ALL rights. There was only one other member in that guild and the founder rights went automatically to that only member, that is good. other members have come to that guild now meantime the new founder has left the game for over a month and is in Bronze Age, but the other members can't get to GE, can't do GvG, can't play the game - THE GUILD IS DYING, naturally. If INNO would follow their own rules, that player would have been long deleted and there would not be a problem right now and the guild would run smoothly and healthy. So INNO, please follow your own rules and delete that OBSOLETE FOUNDER, so the guild can function, thanks
I contacted support and they tell me they can't do a thing LOL - Great help that was - NOT
They do not! I am in this situation right now and INNO has not deleted that obsolete founder...
And an aristocratic type where members have power proportionally to their points or GE stats or time spent in the guild.I have a BeTtEr solution!
There should be TWO types of guild, one "totalitarian" type, which is the status quo; and the other "democratic" type, where everything must be voted, which is where most of the comments point at.
This brings an improvement to the GVG in the mean time. Guilds of one type are automatically enemy to the other type. This prevents the current situation where it is cubersome as to which guilds are enemies and which are allies (based on guild leaders' spontaneous negotiations, an area no game rules cover) and the situation where multiple guilds bully a single guild (hopefully my guildies won't read here but our guild seems to be on the bullying not bullied side)
-------
And there should emerge a Superguild which is Guild of Guilds.
But they don't need to be natural ennemies. Take Russia, wich was a monarchy, and France, wich was a democracy. They were allies during world war I. On the other hand Russia fought Germany wich was a monarchy too.
I have send a support ticket and the moderator said they don't interfere with the system - I know FOR a Fact that player is inactive for over 30 days. I feel very, very upset and frustrated, it's like talking against a wall and the guild is falling apart, because no one can do GE or GvG....cheers
