I bet you probably are one of the most dedicated guild leaders to ever have walked in Eberron, but honestly, do you really expect people to stay in a guild with that name?

Acolytes of Foluke isn't really a cool name for a guild, as it seems a bit egocentric & besides, only your close friends would want to stay in the guild, no wonder why so many ppl left :S

Think of a better guild name that would attract ppl or simply keep your friends in the guild

I actually found myself in a similar situation recently. What happened in my guild is that the leader and all the officers other than me got caught up in real life stuff and the leader decided that I would be a better leader for the guild. I recognized that the guild was in its death throes so I passed leadership back and left. As sad as it made me I still think it was for the best because it did not destroy the guild for those that may have cared about it and it got me out.

So that's what I would suggest. Pass leadership and leave.

Changing it in a couple months.

How does "Monsters of Madness" sound?

Or "The Illithoids"?

Give me some ideas.

I went over this several times.

Do not disband, unless you and your guildies comes to the conclusion it's the only solution. I agree with the others the guild name is a problem. If you can, create a lvl one mule and try different guild names and when you found the one you want keep it on that character to make sure you won't lose it. Something like Insanity or Brothers of Insanity looks cool but names like that might not be available.

How about "Just Give me the Ship"?

Great for if the guild gets high-level.

You mean like "Token Airship Guild" which is 60th on Orien.

Worked for them, it can work for you.

If the most important thing to you is guild level then you've no business in being a guild. If you cannot place names or at least persona of the people behind the alts what's the point of the guild? Your attitude on this cheapens what an MMO is.

The name was meant somewhat as a joke, mainly because most guilds later along only get a handful of people who aren't there for the ship. More likely I'll go with something about madness or Cthulhu.

This is probably the best so far:

"Insert good name here"

That way, it'll force people to use their imagination!
