Dealing with Alliance Leaders that ghost

Can we get some kind of mechanism to move the leader role automatically for teams where the alliance leader has quit playing the game without leaving their alliance?

We have alliances where the alliance leader has not played since before the general global launch and players are joining these teams and feeling stuck, forcing them to create new teams and hope they can get the other active players in their current teams will move with them. Not a great thing to have to coordinate.

    @ElfNeedsFood Funny you mention that! While it's not exactly what you're requesting, we're already planning on introducing an Auto-Promote feature in 1.1.4 that will automatically promote a random, active Officer (or random, active member, if no Officers exist) when a Leader leaves an Alliance without promoting someone as their replacement.

    Developing an automated system to detect inactive Leaders is something we could certainly look into for the future though.

    How do you become an Officer?  What can an Officer do?

    Your alliance leader promotes you to Officer.  You do nothing but if the leader leaves, then the highest ranking officer becomes the leader.  This still doesn't fix when the leader just quits playing though...
