The only possible way, ingame, to change the guildmaster is the guildmaster him-/herself by choosing someone or leaving the guild (gm passes over to player with the next highest rank).
So, the only way for you would propably be the support. Maybe because of a good reason they can make you guildmaster.

Support has said numerous times in the past they will not change a guild leader. The only way for leadership to change is to have the current leader pass leadership or start a new guild.

Sad but true. You could ask around and see if there is another dead guild someone has that they might want to give up or sell (in game gold of course).

Contrary to what others have said, I'd recommend contacting Support and ask them to give you the guild leader's spot. Give them as much detail as you can, including the server, guild name, current inactive guild leader's name, how long he/she has been inactive (insofar as you can determine), and so on. It can't hurt to try and might just help. Support has transferred guild leadership in the past, but not without a very good reason.

If you do this please be patient. It can take a fair amount of time for Support to do the investigation.

Then this is contrary to what the players were told on numerous occasions. We were always told this was not possible and there was nothing support would or could do about it. Evidently this has changed now. Can we take this as official word that support has the ability to change guild leadership?

Under FA leadership, they would not ever, fer any reason, pass guild leadership. Under EU leadership, we twere able ter get guild lead changered in a guild that had the lead banned. We done did haver ta jump thru their hoops, but they twere kind enough ter changer lead. Tis possible, jus be nice bout it, an jump, jump!

You should definatelly try to contact Support about it.
I am not saying they will do it (since I'm not incharged for game and can't speak on their behalf) but based on my previous experience with Gameforge support they sometimes do that ;)

On what the other guy said, if you're on the Artemis server, I have a dead guild that you can have. Siege-ready with castle and all, just not used anymore.

As I remember, the old rule was that leadership would not never be reassigned, but that rule was changed a couple of years ago, meaning that under certain conditions, support would reassign leadership. Plead your case and see what happens.
