question regarding FC inactivity

[Madjames]

How long does an fc leader have, before the FC is given to someone else because they are inactive?

If that time comes and the only person who is active is a level 1 toon and just is an alt to hold things for his main. Can that level 1 toon get the FC if no one else in the FC has been online for 200+ days?

A friend is in an fc with an alt atm and the leader has been inactive for 27 days. He joined the FC because he liked the name. He created his level 1 character, and got an invite. He used teleport to see the FC house and such and just never did anything past that point except use the mailbox.

As far as i know:
after 30 days of leave the leadership is given to the highest ranking active Player if no officer was playing during the last 30days the lower ranks will beconsidered and so on.

I think it's something along the 35 day line. At that point, the next highest ranking, active, member of the FC can take over. I would assume that the "active" party of that is the same as the leader, in that they'd just have to have been online within the last 35 days. In other words, the only way your friend will be able to take over is if all the members ranked higher have been inactive for just as long as the leader at this point.......

Theoretically. There has been one noticeable side effect. Apparently it doesn't change your rank in the fc. So if you don't have privileges to promote/demote or change privileges you get stuck as a low rank in the fc with 0 control. Someone posted a thread about this a few days ago.

35 days was the last number I saw, but I don't know how accurate that is.

I dont understand what you mean. If you are given the master rank of the FC you are then the owner of it and the fc house and everything else. It doesnt however allow you to promote, demote or change anything?

I cant seem to find the post stating what your saying here.

Anyone just curious?

So basically your friend is trying to get a free FC house.

I did not say that at all.

My friend joined the FC in question so he could level an alt and have a different pool of people to play the game with then on his main and because he though the name was cool. It is not unheard of for someone to have 2 main characters as he does.

However, he is focusing on his main as he levels through HW.

Upon transferring stuff between his main character and his alt today (first time in 28 days since he has logged into said toon) he noticed that no one was online which was kinda odd. Upon checking, no one has been online for weeks on end. Some for months. He is now stuck in the predicament that I have originally posted. The leader hasn't been on in 27 days and that is the most recent activity. Since he is going on a trip I thought it would be best to post for him on here so I could get some answers.

If you think he is just going to quit the fc that is not going to happen, as I said he likes the name and wants it to become something. The best scenario would be for the fc leader to come online. The second best senario would be for him to be given leadership and to invite people and get the guild going.

I have been running guilds for 17 years straight in my 18 years of playing mmorpgs. I have no sympathy for a leader or officers who leave for months on end without even such as a small note. If the fc is given to my friend by the system in place that SE put in the game, then that's the way the cookie crumbles for the FC leader. He/she should have came online more I guess.
