does this really seem like a guild, even as a officer, anyone should be in?

Wow, that's almost as bad as my first guild and the second one that I made myself, lol. You are missing out on so much fun for GW it's not funny. Leave that guild right away and search for one that has voice communication. That's key, if you're just someone who likes to type, that ain't gonna cut it for a good guild.

Leave, you won't regret it.

What's keeping you in the guild, might I ask?

Man, My guild is worse than that, I'm seeing a lot of weeks and month instead of days.
*sigh* but I stayed in since these were my RL friend. But now I'm always on the look out for another guild to hop to.

The biggest and most stupidest thing that people do which kills off guilds is this...
person logs on..... hmmm, noone on-line.... log off..
few hours layer..
another person logs on... hmmm, noone on-line.. log off..
next day, a third person logs on, hmm.. noone online, i'll leave it a few days.. log off...
and for the simple reason that noone STAYS ON LINE, everyone misses each other and eventually people dont bother playing guildwars at all...
Your guild isnt that bad!.. there just needs to be someone online when these people log on!
Your obviously an officer in your guild so it depends if you want to help revive the guild, or if you want to goto another, more active guild and simply be a member!

I agree that leaving would be the best idea...

Yeah, i was in your position for over a week till yesterday. The guild leader had gone off to play WoW, and hadn't been on for a couple of weeks, as well as an officer. Because of that, another officer left, and only me and another in the guild really came on. We thought we might be able to keep the guild up because we were both officers, and we could get new members, and so on, but a leaderless guild loses morale.
We just left the guild and started a new one yesterday because we got fed up of waiting for him to get fed up with WoW.

Well that is pretty inactive.. but if your an officer nothing stop you to recruit or talk to the leader why is not active much ...
Alias_X
I was in a guild way worse than that, and I revived it. I joined as a member, and helped out otehr members. Later, I got promoted to an officer, and did a lot of recruiting. Then, I got promoted to LEADER. We were super active, now we are taking a slouch right before Factions. I hope Factions revives us, if not, I will sak a few officers and get some new managment.

If you are in the guild with folks you have enjoyed playing with and feel its worth trying to save you should try, otherwise.... Start organizing events and such to try to get folks on at the same time. The inactivity level shows that there is a core of about 8 still playing, but you'll want to try to bring them together. You can use the guild announcement thing to get it out even without a forum. Forums and TS/vent are key tools though for having a lively guild I think. With a lil prompting folks may even respond quickly.
If this has been tried, yeah well what everyone else said.

Man.. find a guild with a kick policy.. many are doing this..
if the officer are inactive for more than a week they shouldn't be officers (unless on vacation for that tenture)
If your leader is gone with out notice for more than a week that is a sign to leave because you have poor leadership to begin with.
My guild kicks after three weeks, if you had a family issue or something you're given the chance to post on the forums and request back in.
but most give notice that they are leaving for an extend period of time.
Officer are demoted after two weeks of non activity and kicked at three like any other member.
Guilds need rules and structure. Find one that has those and you'll be happy, or at least a little better off.

So.. did you stay or did you go?
Hired Blade
You have to ask yourself do you want to be a pioneer, or join an established guild. There are rewards to helping to create a guild vs joing a big one, but it will send u down a harder path no free droks runs, no free gear, an little help for missions. I guess it depends on your personality. I like challenge, so I went the harder path =)
callumevans324
seriously dude, that was severe (i had to go to hospital and have a heart transplant). I would reccommend leaving ASAP (i aint read too mcuh of this thread, sorry). There's guilds out there with 100 active members, all under 4 days!
Or you can get a GvG one with 12 members that are normally active :P

We have a kick policy also, 3 weeks, and out, unless you have given prior notice, or reason as-to why you will be off line for a longer period (or unless your a close real life friend of another member )
I check the guild daily, and anyone over 1 week without notice, I check our forums, and try and contact them.., if they hit 2 weeks, i'll check again etc, at 3 weeks, theyer out...

I would normally kick people who were inactive at around a month if they had not indicated they were taking a break or busy in rl of something. They can always ask to come back. For those people who get involved more and are suddenly absent, I would normally send them a pm or an email and check things are ok...
I would not stay in a guild where everyone is inactive, but things can be improved - it just takes a lot of effort... Anyone in that situation will have to decide if it is worth it or not!

This thread reminded me of a guild I used to be in.
I got pretty lonely in there.

But dude most of those people on the OPs list haven't been on in 2wks or better, so I say leave! And trust me, it's even worse to be in a guild where you and 3members (not officers) are all that are ever on.

I just kicked 5 people from the guild they have been away 2 months and the only oline players are me and the officers apart from 2 new recruits.

That is not as bad as mine as many have been offline for months.I have already kicked a few out and more will follow.I am really skepticla about guild recruitment these days.I really hate training or helping new members out then they leave.This shot was taken a about say 7 months ago or less.

There was me: Guild Leader: Online
My one officer: Two-three days ago
My two semi-active members: three-seven days ago
My four or five inactive members: two to three months ago
Anyways, I left my guild and joined the one I'm in now. I knew these people for a long time before I picked up Guild Wars (around the same time they did, without knowing it. I started with a different group of friends (who became my guild members mentioned above)), and now I'm one of their members.
Let's just say I have benefits in this new guild I didn't have as leader of my old guild.
So it's up to you, take a chance or try with what you have (God knows I tried that several times to no end).
