I am the vice host of an Alliance, and everyone in the alliance says im an authority figure that they can approach. The host of the alliance is never on anymore. My entire alliance thinks and looks at me like the host/founder. I think it helps that im on maternity leave waiting for a bundle of joy to arrive that i have so much time to enjoy and give this time the attention and dedication it should have. Am i stepping the line? I personally dont think I am. We were to merge with another alliance to be stronger, but i felt that the alliance needs to stay where we are and that our wants werent met. My saying that, one of my members had stated he'd rather me lead or at least help lead that alliance, even though my position is high, i was only going to be an officer. Let me know what you think!
