Gordon Esil Brutor Tribe Minmatar Republic 0	Posted - 2013.04.05 07:46:00 - [1] - Quote Hi So I had a corp just started it, I had to leave it for few days, I put an alt in it to keep it open When I joined I started a CEO vote to take back CEO from my alt, but then I messed it all up CEO roles revoked from my alt, and to my knowledge he has Director roles And by mistake I quit the corp as well, so basically now the corp description shows my alt as CEO but in fact he does not have any authorities and cannot accept any application The CEO vote passed (only me and my alt voted) so after the vote period is complete I should take over CEO again, but my question, I'm now out of the corp and I cannot join it again and my alt does not have any roles What will happen after 24 hours when the vote is ended? will my alt become CEO again since the one who got elected left the corp? Or do I need to petition that? * I know I screwed it up... I just woke up -.- Thanks for your comments

Next time, just make your alt a director then r-click yourself in the member list -> resign as CEO. It'll give you a list of eligible directors and you pick one to take over the CEO role. Or the other way around to reverse the process.

Next time, just make your alt a director then r-click yourself in the member list -> resign as CEO. It'll give you a list of eligible directors and you pick one to take over the CEO role. Or the other way around to reverse the process. This is not how it works. "R. Click -> resign as CEO" will list all corp members with skills to lead a corporation (i.e. corporation management of at least L1). In the event that there are no members that meet this criteria, then it will show all members of the corporation. This happens whether the member is a director or not. Regardless of who takes over as CEO, the allowed size and races* will not change, unless the new CEO goes into corporation management and clicks the "Update with my Skills" button (or something like that). This is a bad thing to do, especially if you're buying a corp from someone (e.g. one of those standing services), because it's highly likely that they also have the skills to make 100+ man corporations. *NOTE -- in the past, you used to need the skill "Ethnic Relations" to have off-race characters in your corporation (i.e. if you were gallente, you couldn't have Amarr, Caldari, or Minmnatar without the skill). I think they removed this mechanic in one of the patches/expansions in the past year or two, but I can't recall when it was. ed -- if the other toon is still a director in the corp, he can process your application and bring you back in. One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia Malcanis for CSM8

No the other toon is a normal member, I thought I had set him to director but now I am sure that I did not Basically I'm stuck outside the corp because of foolish thing I did, I'm not sure what was I thinking about when I did that Anyways I already sent a petition and I hope I get a quick response about it

Major Trant Angry Mustellid Iron Oxide. 151	Posted - 2013.04.05 12:21:00 - [8] - Quote You have misread or missed something or maybe there is a display glitch, relog and recheck. A corp cannot be without a CEO, even if you are changing via a vote, the old CEO remains in office until the conclusion of the vote. More information required. Are there other players in the corp? If CEO has passed to one of them, you are at the mercy of their charity. No petition will change that. Is your corp in a wardec? I believe you cannot reapply to the same corp for 7 days if an active wardec is ongoing.
Gordon Esil Brutor Tribe Minmatar Republic 0	Posted - 2013.04.05 12:29:00 - [9] - Quote Yes only me and my alt The scenario was: I started a vote to take over CEO with this char CEO roles revoked on my alt Thinking I gave my alt director when I joined it to the corp I left the corp with this char Now my alt is the only one in corp with no CEO/Director roles No way for me to join the corp again since there is only 1 toon in the corp with no powers or whatever to accept applications So basically if the situation will get fixed by itself after the vote period is done (like my alt will be automatically the CEO again since he is the only one in corp) then I guess I'm fine If after the vote ends I will fail to get CEO because I'm out of corp and cannot get in it again while leaving my alt with no roles then I guess I'm in an awkward position here... :/

As stated previously, a corp cannot be without a CEO.

The thing is: it DOES show my alt's name as CEO in the corp info page, but in fact his powers are stripped due to the ongoing vote to change the CEO, so basically he is CEO by name only, anyways, I'll just wait for tomorrow and see how it will solve itself... if it actually can

The CEO get's locked out of all roles so they can't abscond with any corp assets (or cash) while under the vote.

Hah, that's an important distinction! Thanks for bailing me out.

Polaris Sagan Sagan Enterprises 1	Posted - 2013.04.06 04:08:00 - [15] - Quote I believe you have to right click your name on the members screen of the corporation window and click accept roles. (Using the actual named CEO). When I had Lords Of Valhalla Corporation that was the case.
Polaris Sagan Sagan Enterprises 1	Posted - 2013.04.06 04:16:00 - [16] - Quote From what I remember when I accepted the role at my old corp. You have to be on the character who its saying is CEO and go onto the members tab of the corporation window. Right click your name and select accept roles. It should be there somewhere and should sort the problem.
