The Keep:Pirate Cove/Archive/Jan2016-Oct2016 Guilds with Inactive Leaders

This page list all guilds that have inactive leaders. A leader is considered inactive when they have not logged in to Habitica (website or app) for at least six months. The players from the Pirate Cove are assessing these guilds to see what should be done with them. The options are:


 * Ask in guild chat if the guild members would like to select a new leader. This should be the option chosen in most cases.
 * Recommend to Alys that the guild be privatised - e.g., if the guild has not had any discussion for a long time. In most cases, Alys will probably prefer that the first option be chosen instead, because the process of choosing a new leader might bring a guild back to life.
 * Recommend to Alys that the guild be deleted. This might be appropriate if the guild is extremely inactive - e.g., hardly any chat messages since it was created.

Before approaching a guild, it is important that you get permission first from the Pirate Cove. This is to ensure that no other actions regarding that guild have occurred yet and that the pirate is aware of any history or special circumstances regarding the guild.

Once permission has been received, as suggested hail to the guild can be:

"Hello, everyone! Unfortunately the person who created this guild has not logged into Habitica for more than six months and the lack of an active leader has come to the attention of the Pirates of Habitica. In case you have not heard of us, I'd better explain that the pirates of Pirate Cove not only help to keep the guild list tidy by removing abandoned guilds but they also try to rescue guilds that are in difficulty and help them to flourish, or in this case assist a leadership change. So... If any of the long-term members are interested in being leader of the guild, the Admins can arrange for the leadership to be transferred to someone with the time and energy to promote the guild and run interesting challenges. If you think you can take on this guild, speak now! Post your plans here in the guild and if Habitica Admins think you've got what it takes to be guild leader, the guild is yours! The guild creator's gems will be returned to them, just in case they ever start using Habitica again. Please note it is not first come first serve, so even if someone else has put down their name feel free to speak up too as all names will be considered."

This has the following elements
 * Plain English. We are all pirates! but the landlubbers sometime have trouble understanding us
 * Explains who we are and what we do
 * That approval will be required by Habitica's Admin. It not just up to you, your facilitating the change.
 * You can't just come in and claim the guild. Need to show you been productive member of the guild before.

All details on this page were correct on 2016-02-21. Any changes made since then (e.g., inactive leaders who have started logging in again) will NOT be represented in this page unless someone edits them in manually. guild The "relative time" dates (e.g., a day ago or 4 months ago) are all relative to 2016-02-21, NOT to whatever day you happen to be looking at this page on. They are intended to give a quick method of very roughly assessing the activity of a leader or guild.

A Python script has been written to help find abandoned guilds with inactive leaders after the current list has been exhausted.

The guilds are sorted in order of their group IDs.

PIRATE DISCUSSION:

Tenko: animator's survivor guild is one that was on my radar, and i have messaged them in party chat on february 7th, 2016 asking if they want a new leader for this guild. the members of this guild informed me/us that they have made a new guild, and asked about this guild there was no response. they have not chosen a new leader.

i have no ideas as per what could or should be done there, and because my presence there has irated one person, i'd like to bestow follow-up with this guild to another pirate.

Luthien: I am a member both of this guild and of the newer Motion Design guild. Will be hailing this week (2/28 - 3/5).

PIRATE DISCUSSION:

Ariel's message in the Pirate Cove around 18 Feb: '''I agree if people are posting their names to a wiki list saying they want to spearhead the efforts with certain guilds, we should do that in waves with the first wave being pirates who already are in the guild. For example Mastering Buddha is on your list and I'm an active member there. I recently asked in chat if people would be ok with nominating a new leader (on my own, not as a pirate) so I would definitely want first dibs.'''

FINISHED: The Kinksters
PIRATE ASSIGNED: Alys CURRENT STATUS: FINISHED sort of (private guild; Alys posted a couple of messages explaining the guild change process, then waited a fortnight, then posted this: "I'm going to leave this group now, but if at any time in the future you'd like to have a new leader, decide amongst yourselves who it should be and then go to Help > Ask a Question to say that you'd like a leadership change. I'll see your message there.") DECISION: ignore until/unless the guild requests a leadership change

Kinksters are more or less a dead guild. If you read the chat, the guild was more or less abandoned when new ToS came in, and most of the active players migrated to the Aftercare 18+ guild.

PIRATE DISCUSSION:

@Mara the Marine Marauder (2016-08-14):


 * @Alys Requesting permission to find an active guild leader for the guild SHS: Atheists and Skeptics. It isn't in our wiki list because guild leader @No Flower Policy last logged in 26 Jan 2016, so the 6 months weren't over yet when the list was made. It was created in September 2015, and I've been an active member in there since then. As an ardent atheist, the guild is dear to me. The guild description could use a good reformatting, adding of a few search terms, etc. - so it would be great if it had an active leader. I'd like to take the following steps:


 * Message @No Flower Policy and ask if they'd mind if we chose a new, active guild leader, or if they'd like to come back and be an active guild leader again themselves. (Also mentioning that the four guild gems will be refunded to them if the guild leader is changed.) Wait for an answer for, hmm, 2 weeks?

(Also mentioning that the four guild gems will be refunded to them if the guild leader is changed.) Wait for an answer for, hmm, 2 weeks?


 * If there's no answer or if @No Flower Policy agrees to a new guild leader: Discuss the situation in SHS guild chat. What I'd really like to do is to temporarily become guild leader myself at first, edit the guild description and speech bubble (asking about all content changes in the guild first), possibly changing the guild name to "Secular Humanists, Atheists, and Skeptics" if the guild members are ok with it, possibly change the logo to the international logos of secular humanists and atheists, update the Guilds Guide, maybe reintroduce the guild in the Bulletin Board - and then let anyone else who would like the long-term responsibility take over as guild leader. It's not a catastrophe if I don't find anyone - I'm staying active in that guild anyway. I just probably won't create many new challenges myself there. If I stay guild leader, I'll give permission in the speech bubble that I can be replaced as guild leader if I don't log in for 2 months or longer. - I'd suggest all that in guild chat first, and if no one objects within a week, and if no one else steps forward with their own plans for the guild, I'd do it. If another guild member would like to do not just the guild leading but also the editing, that would be ok, too.

 * What do you think?

@Alys (2016-08-14):


 * @Mara the Marine Marauder : Sounds great! Go ahead. I'll leave it in your hands.

I like your idea of giving permission for a two-month replacement if you don't log in. I wish more leaders had done that. ;)

guild description: Hi! Anyone interested in gradually implementing the paleo diet is welcome to join. :) I've been at it, though not strictly, for about 6 months. This diet is wonderful because you lose a lot of weight, you feel more energetic and better mentally, and it can even help with health issues. These are things I've personally experienced.

guild leader message: none

PIRATE DISCUSSION: Paleo Diet Guild leader last logged in 03 August 2015. The guild never really took off. There have only been 9 posts in year since it was created. (Not counting posts by pirates!) I am actually surprised that the guild isn't busier because I know that Paleo is very much a thing these days. This possibly could be worth rescuing, but I'm not interested in doing it. Any takers? Otherwise I suggest deletion.

PIRATE DISCUSSION:

Aftercare has become a defacto lobby for the private Aftercare 18+ guild. That guild has a different leader, so maybe it would be appropriate to give leadership to that player so they can make it clear what's going on there. The only thing is that that player has been in the inn for a couple of weeks.

guild description: What stupid things do you do? Ever done any binge eating? Binge drinking? Do you procrastinate away your work time? How about stay up too late? Skip workouts? Spend too much money? This guild is for people who struggle to improve themselves. We WANT to improve ourselves, but be don't. We know what to do to lose the weight we need to lose, but we don't. We know what to do for our school or careers but, too often, we don't. We know that we shouldn't have that next beer or spend our hard-earned cash on things we don't need.

Why don't we concentrate on not doing anything really stupid JUST FOR TODAY?

Today, maybe we will have a donut, but we will NOT engage in all-or-nothing thinking and follow it up with a whole night of binge eating. Today, we might goof-off on the computer, but we'll drag ourselves away after 20 minutes especially if we should be doing something else. Today, we WILL do our workout. Today, we WILL get started on things on our to-do lists. Today, we CAN go out and have a drink with a friend, but we will NOT overdo it.

Let's focus on NOT being perfect, just being perfectly healthy.

PIRATE DISCUSSION:

Dewines @cTheDragons It's difficult to know what to do when there's no response for a call for a new leader. Do we think the guild actually has potential? There aren't many posts considering that it's been around since 2014.

cTheDragons There is a lot of duplication with this guild. There is already a thriving Doctor Who, another Sherlock guild so not just on the latest English series, and a guild for Supernatural. The owner of the only challenge of the guild has not log on since 2014. And while some of the participants are still active I don't think the challenge has been seriously taken as they have it all done the tasks all the tasks so quiet red or been deleted. I will talk to the Elms about closing the challenge.

I believe it could be safely be plundered and deleted. However I privatisation would be just as good. If we are planning to plunder I would recommend that at least 1 the guild that it is about to happen and give them a timeline for it to be for them to respond before the pirates raid.

cTheDragonsFor SuperWhoLock the challenge has been deleted. Admiral @Alys what is your direction for the guild?

Alys @cTheDragons : You're right that SuperWhoLock is redundant. Would you like to post to the guild to let the members know about the other thriving alternatives?

Message posted in guild Hello all again! I haven't heard heard from anyone who like to be leader of this guild. Considering this guild's recent conversation and there are similar interest with the guilds. For example:

221b Baker Street

Whovians

Supernatural

This guild is being considered for deletion or privatisation or to be repurposed. The guild creator's gems will be returned to them, just in case they ever start using Habitica again. So if you wish to keep this guild speak now! Deadline is Saturday 18th June 11pm UTC.

@cTheDragons 24 August 2016

As discussed before with Oriental Dancers @eleanorthetroubadour (UID 303352d0-c666-4e49-a93f-207dab11814a Born 26/05/2016) can become leader. No response from previous members despite still logging in and activity in the guild.

@Alys 14 August 2016

For Oriental Dancers, you make a very good point about the short attention span. You're right that eleanorthetroubadour is suitable under those circumstances. Let me know when you're ready for me to make the change and I won't argue about it.

@cTheDragons 13 August 2016

For Oriental Dancers eleanorthetroubadour 303352d0-c666-4e49-a93f-207dab11814a has been a member of the guild for more than 2 months and posted 3 times before I put up my notice. The person who posted the most was 5 times. Not sure if this who you were referring too in your last post, but with a such a short attention span of the guild (not even reached it 200 messages in over a year) I'm not sure who else would be suitable. I realised it a slight change in the guild directions, but considering the topic not hotly contested I don't think that a bad thing Obviously we should wait at least 14 days before making a decision - or I can message the other active members who are in chat to see if they are ok.

@Alys 13 August 2016

@cTheDragons : For Oriental Dancers, one person who responded about being leader looks like a recent member of the guild. I'd prefer to not give leadership to them if there's any other responses from established members.

PIRATE DISCUSSION:

Ariel asked in guild chat a few months ago if they wanted to nominate a new leader. A guild member volunteered and Ariel then brought this to the attention of Alys. Because the idea of a leader change was initiated by Ariel rather than by the guild members themselves, the guild leader was not changed. Subsequently, Ariel has become a member of the guild and begun running challenges there.

I've posted the message below to guild chat. Copying it here in case it's useful for other guilds. LadyAlys (talk) 06:35, February 28, 2016 (UTC)

"Hello everyone. Some of you might recall that a few months ago, there was a discussion here about choosing a new leader for this guild, because the current leader, eeklaura, hasn't logged in to Habitica since last April. We weren't able to do anything about changing the leader at that time because our instructions from Lemoness had been that an inactive leader could not be replaced until a full year had passed. However Lemoness has recently decided that six months is a better timeframe, and so if you would like to choose a new leader, you are free to do so now.

"If you have any questions, ask here. One of the members of this guild, Ariel, is familiar with the process of choosing a new leader and will be able to answer questions directly or contact me if necessary. Ariel will also tell me when a decision has been reached and I will then change the leader and return to eeklaura the four gems that it cost to create the guild."

cTheDragons 10 Sept 2016

Irish Players This guild looks like it been slowing crashing against the rocks. The chat for the last 12 months has not really stuck. There is a recent message there from a Brazilan There is even a hidden pirate message in this guild to check if it is active. Suggestions? Leave or Plunder?

@Dewnies 10 Sept 2016

@cTheDragons, the national guilds for small countries are never going to be very active, but I think it's a good idea to keep them going, if for no other reason than someone is bound to create another one if they look down the list and don't see their country represented. We ought to be able to find an active Irish player to take it over. Regarding the comments from Brazilians. One did say they were studying in Ireland and wanted to make contact with people living in the country, so that seems like a good use for the guild. For the Welsh guild, I've widened the remit slightly so the guild information says: "If you live in Wales or you are a Welsh person living elsewhere in the world, or you just have an interest in Wales and its culture and language, this is the guild for you." Surely doing something similar would bring some life back to the Irish guild?

@cTheDragons 10 Sept 2016

@Dewines agreed. Just trying to find an active Irish member though. It just very quiet and not very attractive

@Dewines 10 Sept 2016

@cTheDragons I suggest asking in the Tavern and/or creating a challenge in the Tavern pointing to the Irish guild. It looks like people are just not finding the guild in the first place.

@cTheDragons 11 Sept 2016

@Dewines Re Irish Guild (sorry on the app) I'm not sure that will work as one of @Alys directions is to find active members in the guild before my post to show they are dedicated to the guild.

Unless @Alys you want to make an exception for this?

@Alys 11 Sept 2016

@cTheDragons @Dewines : I do have a strong preference for choosing a leader from existing posters in that guild, even in cases where there are none suitable (i.e., then don't change the leader) because I don't want to start a precedent of choosing a non-member leader - that could backfire badly if an inappropriate person ever asks for leadership. It's easier to no if I always say no. :) However Dewines might have been just suggesting ways to increase interest in the guild? If you want a decision from me then either try to drum up support for the guild in general and look for a new leader later, or leave it be for now in the too-hard basket. :)

@Dewines 11 Sept 2016

@Alys @cTheDragons Sorry. I'd momentarily forgotten the requirement for the new leader to be an active guild member. In that case, I suggest a two-stage process. First a pirate should try to advertise and re-activate the guild and then, after a few months, if/when it has more members, choose a new leader from amongst them. The pirate doesn't need to be made leader to do that. If you don't want to do it, @cTheDragons I'm happy to have a go. My Irish credentials are slender, but Ireland is just across the sea from Wales and I have an Irish great-grandfather and an Irish son-in-law. :)

@cTheDragons 11 Sept 2016

@Dewines more than happy for you to do it. I have enough on my plate

@Dewines 11 Sept 2016

@cTheDragons No problem! I'm away for a few days from tomorrow, but I'll get onto it when I'm back.

PIRATE DISCUSSION:

tenko / there is a volunteer to take over. a new person, not someone who has been in this guild. but they seem motivated, they have already made a new challenge and messaged everyone present in the guild. perhaps they should become the guild leader, although they said they wouldn't like that for some vague reasons.

tenko / it's been a target of mine for a while, first i've cleaned the inactive challenges, but then the usual board plunder and sink plan got distracted by a suggestion to reurpose the guild - nothing came through with that though. status unclear.

Message from Alys in Pirate Cove 2016-03-13:

Regarding Bad Habits: There were suggestions in it from pirates from several weeks ago that the guild would be deleted if a new leader wasn't found. However since then we decided to do deletions only very rarely (e.g., only if there's hardly any messages at all since the guild was created). I don't think Bad Habits is suitable for that; at worst it would be privatised. So I've posted new messages to the guild explaining that we are no longer considering deleting the guild but that we can still help them choose a new leader IF they want that.

I felt that some of the messages we'd posted might have come across as a bit too aggressive and demanding, so I've deleted as many of them as I could to improve the tone of the chat area. I kept only the ones that were necessary to give context to the replies from the original guild members. I took screenshots though so that everyone can refer back to the messages - see the links in my message there.

I am NOT proposing privatisation to that guild at the moment, and I won't for several weeks at least. I want to let things settle down and see if a new leader appears. If there's still very little recent chat and no sign of the guild becoming more active in a couple of months, then I might consider privatisation.

Message from Alys in Pirate Cove 2016-06-24:

We'll leave it untouched for a while. There's a recent influx of people having random conversations, so the guild is naturally drifting away from its original purpose. In a couple of months we can ask about a leadership change again and see what happens.

@Mara the Marine Marauder 11 Sept 2016


 * Wanikani (that's the oldest Wanikani guild): Short version: Probably doesn't want a new guild leader. It's pretty obvious from the discussion during the last two weeks. I asked them just now in chat if they want to be listed as such (explaining that that would mean pirates would stop asking the same questions about it again and again). Got one immediate answer saying yes, fine. Waiting for more.
 * WaniKani<3 (the second one that got started because the first one's guild leader was inactive): Short version: Can probably be privatized now and deleted in half a year. Still as dead as can be (last post besides mine 13 January 2016 when the guild leader said ey wants to merge back), but guild leader last logged in 27/08/2016.
 * The third and youngest WaniKani guild dissolved within 2 weeks and is now being repurposed already (and isn't in our list anyway), so no more issues there. :)

Then I calmed down a bit and actually thought about it. I'd be happy to take over leadership of the Ponemon Trainers guild, because I love that guild. We don't really take much managing, and I think I can handle a bit of regular advertising. Worst-case-scenario I end up finding someone to replace me before bowing down, easy as that. Is there anything special you need from me? Anything I need to do in particular? Thanks.

PIRATE DISCUSSION:

From 4 July 2016

@cTheDragons

Ahoy Admiral @Alys, Captain @Dewines and fellow pirates! I would like to report from my travels abroad at Runner's Edge. I have two candidates to be captain

ResamVi 6e6d1e09-ea96-486c-b964-b0cdfab59bd8 19/10/2014 Kaylee Sea dff2ac91-ffaf-4f55-9482-2203b9ab9585 11/06/2015 Both crewmen have given suggestions for a new course to be charted. It should be noted that neither seem to have join the crew for long. Any preference or should I put it as a vote in the guild?

@Dewines

Well done on finding some candidates for leader of Runner's Edge. I think there has been discussion on Trello for a guild to be able to have joint leaders, and that would have all sorts of advantages, however, at the moment, only one person can officially be guild leader. Both candidates look good, both seem to be committed to Habitica and both have good ideas for challenges. Of course you don't have to be guild leader to run challenges (which is something you could mention). Possibilities for ways forward include: 1. voting, 2. tossing a coin, 3. sharing leadership by changing over every (say) 6 months

Vote was taken inside the guild where @ResamVi won against @Kaylee Sea 7 votes to 5.

Ahoy Admiral @Alys I have news to report from Runner's Edge. The crew have elected @ResamVi UID 6e6d1e09-ea96-486c-b964-b0cdfab59bd8 Born 19/10/2014. Could you please arrange a leadership transfer.

CrimsonAngel (c0a015ac-83cd-4123-9805-d81b3fd2ff3e) volunteered to be leader, and looked like they'd be suitable (made earlier posts helping to reinvigorate the guild).

tenko / when erika came back she has replied to my previously sent question about her intent regarding this guild and its future. she has stated that the guild can be deleted and that she will most likely retire from habitica again, and then she vanished into the night without choosing her successor in the moonies guild. this conversation can be viewed here for reference.

PIRATE DISCUSSION:

tenko / juana tango did ask in that guild if anyone wants to become a new leader, and there were no volunteers. it was also asked before. maybe we should ask again?

tenko / there were 2 volunteers. @Alys wanted only one. tenko sent identical messages to both volunteers describing what a guild leader can do and where to get more resources/help/advice, and also more importantly, kindly asking for these two nice volunteers to settle this among themselves. suggested that a leadership can always be bestowed onto someone else and that they can even swap from time to time. the reaction from these 2 volunteers was presented in form of 1 message from 1 of them, @cyani. it read:


 * Morning @tenko
 * a couple of hours after your message I received this message from @Ranged Lunatic "Hi, cyani. I'll happily cede the guild leader spot if you still want it. I don't really participate in the guild enough to be considered a full member, let alone the leader. I only threw my name in the hat because I wasn't sure if anyone else would." To whom I replied that I would be happy to take responsibility for the guild. I need to mention that I will be afk from 10 June to end of July (road trip), hope this is not a break-deal. What is the next step now - can you message alys, or should I?

to which tenko replied:


 * nah, i'll let alys know at the pirate cove. if you need to go away for a bit longer you can then ask alys to make someone else a temp admin, but if it's for less than a month or two it might not be worth it. there really is not much difference between normal users and the guild leader, just some :) thanks for letting me know, i'll tell her now.

@cTheDragons 12 July 2016

Ahoy my fellow pirates! I have come asking advice for the Computer Companions guild. For more than 18 days I asked for willing volunteers for a new guild leader but have had no response. There has been a few posts since then, but I fear the guild is becoming direction-less without a firm captain to guide the winds. Any suggestions? -

@Riverstone 12 July 2016

@cTheDragons That's an odd one. It's pretty clear from the amount of Hi! posts that there's a lots of interest, but it doesn't seem to get off the ground for very long at a time.

@cTheDragons 12 July 2016

@Riverstone It like the subject too broad and that why it doesn't go anywhere.

@Alys 12 July 2016

@cTheDragons : I say just leave that guild as it is. They don't have to have an active leader. If you wanted to, you could post a message saying that if any of the established members want to take on guild leadership in future (assuming the current leader doesn't come back) then they can contact us. Established member means someone who has been posting in the guild for at least several weeks, ideally longer. It's probably also worth putting a note about the new leader being an established member in the initial message that we post to guilds with inactive leaders.

@cTheDragons 6 August 2016

For Keepers of the Chronicle I have two volunteers to be ye new Captain: @Artdecotech 4ae69cee-0951-4674-ac3a-378383b01eb1 Born 07/12/2015 @KatyChurchill 99788dc7-4ba7-4189-ac2f-9fa69ee67323 Born 04/08/2015 Are ye Pirates have any suggestions?

@Alys 6 August 2016

For Keepers of the Chronicle, as far as I can tell, neither of those players had posted to the guild before your message asking if anyone wanted to be leader. I'd rather give leadership to an established player to ensure they really are dedicated to the guild. However either or both of them could start doing leadership-like actions in the guild - starting challenges, promoting conversations, etc and we can reassess in a couple/few months. The guild can stay without an active leader for a while; that's better than giving leadership to a new player who might then abandon the guild. Tell me if you'd like me to post there about that!

PIRATE DISCUSSION: @cTheDragons 28 July 2016

From reading the Linguists, The RolePlayers has been abandon.

"@Sphinx Seems like the guild is intended to gather fans of a real world group of Role playing games. I've looked their other medias (site, social) and they are really active. I'll send some emails and private messages to them. Seems like nobody is using that guild anymore. Btw, the guild have been renamed to 'Roleplays abandoned. We have a new guild now!' and the chat only have random 'Anybody here?' messages."

If it has been abandon could we capture and either plunder or re-purpose please?

Quotation provided by Rodrigo Nasc

@Alys 28 July 2016

@cTheDragons : Boarding the RolePlayers concerns me because it sort of seems that they're still using it to recruit members for a party or private guild, and it's harder for us to handle sensitively because the people involved might not speak English well and we might not get good translations of their language from Google. I want to put it into the too-hard basket at the moment.

PIRATE DISCUSSION:

Due to awkward shenanigans, a previous attempt to have an active leader was thwarted. Since Alys has been mildly traumatised and the guild is functional (if quiet) as is, it is to be left alone for now and revisited when the previous situation scrolls out of chat.

PIRATE DISCUSSION:

I investigated this guild while working as an elf dealing with 3 orphaned challenges. (These have now been deleted.) I came to the conclusion that the best option for this guild is to be made private. It is devoted to a particular issue relating to forums outside Habitica. Reading the chat, the guild seems unlikely to revive but in view of the lengthy discussion about a topic that was important to the members and the fact that there are about 3 or 4 members still active in Habitica (though not posting in that guild), being made private to perserve the previous conversation would be a good option. It could actualy function perfectly well as a private guild because any new members are more likely to come from the related external sites, not from within Habitica, so they can be invited to a private guild by guild members if necessary. [Dewines] After presenting the case to @Alys and the other pirates, it was decided to make the guild private.

PIRATE DISCUSSION: @Alys 5 Oct 2016

Geek Women Sweden - I'm going to ignore that one for now. It's a non-English guild, and there doesn't seem to be any others for Sweden, so it might be valuable if we get a Swedish influx. At the least, I'm putting it in the too-hard basket for now. We can rethink it later.

@cTheDragons 10 Sept 2016

Grad School Recovery I noticed there are few people in the past posting quite regular, but possible because they now past being past at Grad School that it not relevant? Suggestions? This guild is quite small. I could approach some of the active members. But not sure if anyone just moved on to the next stage of their life.
