    Guild leader

    Right guys this will be my last post on the subject as its gone on far too long allready and I think my views are clear from the other thread:

    To quote myself:

    "I view the guild more as a collection of friends who "want" to help each other rather than are made to by imposing demotions/expulsions."

    "I think that punishments wouldn't be needed as people would soon notice people not helping others and in tun these people would recieve little or no help back."

    "If im made guild master ill do my best to encourage helping others but unless extreme circumstances arise I wont be forcing anyone to do anything."

    However this is not to say that if sombody is behaving inapropriately nothing will be done, If I recive complaints from members that the officers agree merit looking into, action will be taken. However I dont feel that so far anything other than a quiet word has been required.

    I also would like to appoint a couple more officers representing the more casual players so the voices of people lower down in the levels are fairly heard and considered.

    As GM I just want to do my best to keep things running smoothly and everybody having fun playing the game as they wish.

    I think we have all agreed that everyone in guild should send a mail to Thor asap stating your choice to keep the whole process impartial. Also as has been said before, if after a while you are not happy with the way I do the job we can have a talk and if needed find sombody else - However I dont envisage any problems as I intend to run te guild in the same manner as done so far by Thor, whom I feel did a great job.
    Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
    Enwrought with golden and silver light,
    The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
    Of night and light and the half-light,
    I would spread the cloths under your feet:
    But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
    I have spread my dreams under your feet;
    Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.

    I do have a question for you, which I have also put to ERU on his thread.

    How do you see yourself in the balance of power? Under Thor's democratic regime, decisions were made by discussion followed by majority vote by the officers, with Thor's vote often being the deciding vote (an uneven number, see!). Do you see yourself as making decisions with an equal vote to your officers, or do you seek to have over-riding control? You have said that you intend promoting more officers Would that be with a consensus of votes from existing officers? We have previously discussed candidates. Would we have the same level of input this time?

    Answered in ERU's thread but to be thorough yes it would be as usual with discussion with the existing officers and a vote, the GM in my view has a vote which counts the same as an officers no more no less.

    Enwrought with golden and silver light,
    The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
    Of night and light and the half-light,

    I have spread my dreams under your feet;
    Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.

    Now that we have thrashed out a bit what each person wants from being the leader of the pack - i think all intending on running should create a post like Eru has....

    Why do you want to be leader?

    What will we gain as a guild from having you as our leader?

    Do you plan to implement any changes to the rank strcture of the guild?

    Do you plan to implement any changes to the COC?

    Do you to implement any changes at all?

    Although its not the election - i think we do need to hear a bit from the relevant people.

    Im really just about trying to keep things going in the same way as thor, Trying to include everybodys opinions and view and maintaining the guild as a fun place to play WoW. I dont view it as much as a total leader more as a chairman with a group of officers whos vote all count for the same.

    If any people have ideas for the guild they can at anytime be put forward to be discussed by the officers/GM

    Should be some sort of warning for this thread, I would say the picture should be photoshopped into something comical, but no need
