How to pass leadership? (from automatic new leader) [SOLVED]

[Nimppy]

Hello all!
A new Leader as been automatically appointed in our alliance due our former leader inactivity. He is not the Leader we have agree upon and want to pass leadership but he doesn’t know how to do it… No person in our alliance knows. Anyone can point us in the right direction?

The leader can promote a new player to leader, which demotes him/her to co-leader. Our previous leader did that when he decided to retire from the game and promoted me to leader.

Edit, note the new player needs to be promoted to co-leader first.

Blockquote The leader can promote a new player to leader, which demotes him/her to co-leader.

But where/how is this achieved? Our desire Leader is already co-leader.

Current Leader – Go to Alliance. The List of members will be shown. Click on player to be promoted. At bottom where Alliance name is shown there are three buttons:

DEMOTE | PROMOTE | BATTLE

Hit Promote to make new leader.

A leader can promote a new leader and demote anyone. A Co-Leader can promote and demote Elders. An Elder can kick members. Anyone above member can kick members.

You can also hit Battle to have a friendly raid against that player’s defense. That option is available to all.

How do you appoint a new leader when your leader has been inactive for almost 2 years?

Welcome to the forum Unlicensed.

I was under the impression that 60 days of inactivity from the leader would see a co-leader automatically promoted unless there are no co-leaders

@EmpiresPuzzles

We have now enabled automated demotion of Inactive Alliance leaders. If an Alliance Leader has not logged into Empires & Puzzles for 60 days, a new Leader will automatically be selected from among the eligible Alliance members.

How does it work?

If an Alliance Leader has not logged into Empires & Puzzles for 60 days, a new Leader will automatically be selected from among the eligible Alliance members.

If a Leader has been inactive for a month, there will be an automated message sent to the Alliance Chat and the Leader will receive a Push Notification notifying them that a new Leader will be selected if the current Leader remains inactive. A second notification will be sent to the Alliance Chat if the current Leader has not signed in after 45 days. After 60 days of inactivity from the Alliance Leader, a new Leader will be promoted.

Only Co-leaders and Elders are eligible to be promoted. Leader status will never be given to a Member, regardless of how long or how active they have been in the Alliance, or what ranks they have previously held in the Alliance. If there are no active Co-leaders or Elders, the Leader selection process will be stopped.

Support cannot transfer the leadership upon request, as this process is automated. If there are no eligible members who can be promoted, you might want to consider creating a new Alliance and invite the active players to join it.

Why hasn’t a new Leader been selected?

Below are the reasons why an inactive Leader hasn’t changed yet:

• The Leader has logged into the game before the 60 days of inactivity
• The process is still ongoing
• There are no Elders or Co-leaders who can be promoted to Leader
