In the last few weeks the officers have been discussing many changes to Redeemed. As we all know, there was a great deal of conflict and stress for everyone concerned with the departure of some of our loved ones.
The officers have been in prayer and have developed a starting point for some changes to Redeemed.
In the past, we had ToJ hand down Guild Leaders and some rules.
After some research and discussion this is not the way ToJ, or Redeemed is set up to operate. Based on the ToJ Article 4, Redeemed is to be run by the local Guild Leader and his administrators. They decided all rules for activity and membership.
With this in mind Cgamer/Alhana and the rest of the officers have discussed some different things. We feel there need to be some changes in the way the guild operates. We are far to large, even with the exodus of some, for one person to function effectively as the Guild Master or Leader. Especially since there are many issues Redeemed needs to address in the very near future.
So it was decided that we would start by looking at changes to the GM position and then allow the new structure to define the rest of the officers, membership and relations with ToJ and such as they see fit.
So, here is a proposal for changing the Guild Master Position from one person to three co-equal leaders. This is purely for discussion.
****NOTE FOR NON REDEEMED MEMBERS (especially non-wow)****
Your input is very valuable to us. However, we will give more weight to those who are a part of Redeemed or at least have been a part of our family.

Guild Masters
Proposal-
• Change from single position to three co-guild leaders each over a separate but equal area of concern for the guild.
• They will work as a team to lead and set direction for the guild
• They are charged with setting membership rules and expectations
• Possible Areas- Administration, Post 60, Leveling, Spiritual Development, Membership, Banking, Recruiting, Guild Relationships
Reasoning-
• The guild has grown too large to have one leader. One person cannot be on enough to handle the many things that occur. This would allow one of the three to handle “emergency issues” until the appropriate leader could address the issue.
• We have gotten top heavy with officers with no real responsibilities
• Aligns the guild to things we feel are important instead of reacting to difficult situations
• Prior to the fracture of Sanctified the guild seemed to be very focused on doing MC. Great deals of our resources were headed there. That is not bad, but the people who are not 60 really don’t understand. Those that are 60 need to help communicate we are doing this not for ourselves but for them as well. A system is a very good way to do this. It also takes personalities out of play
Difficulties-
• Defining who does what might be difficult
• Setting up how Co-GM’s get assigned/elected
• Developing standards for GM behavior and accountability
• Defining relationship with ToJ
