Guild Renown Changes

[SirValentine]

Is this a new thing? Because about more than a year ago, I was in a guild where the leader was inactive, no successor, and I was an officer. No go when I looked for a way to take guild ownership.

No...since Update 11 in September 2011. The Release Notes say:

• Officers can now usurp a guild after 60 days if there is no successor, or if the successor has been inactive for 60 days.

Thank you for the decay break.

Now, only two steps left.

1) Keep the decay turned off forever.

2) Fire any of your employees who come up with such game-destroying, community-withering ideas as this in the future.

3) Make a permanent note on the employees record who came up with these ideas, and watch him carefully; perhaps put him in charge of oh, I don't know... texture cleanup for the high-res client, and keep him or her away from game-system designs and anything 'fun' related.

Problem solved.

That is three things.
