Sorry to hear of your troubles, As your aware the whole Linkshell situation is very broken, and worthless as is. (The only good thing with linkshells from XI to XIV is the fact you can talk in multiple linkshells at the same time easily now). Theres alot they need to do with Linkshells. However the MAIN things they need to do ASAP is:

*Allow you to give offline people ranks
*Allow you to remove offline people

I find it pretty silly I cant give my alts Officer status because I cannot login to both of them at the same time, or kick those who have not logged in in months and are not returning to the game ever.. Lots of dead characters in the LS with my alts having no officer status... /sigh
