Leader not being able to be officer.

Why is this rule here ? What does it do, except makes you unable to be an officer ? Why is it so important, for a leader not having a commander ?

Nonetheless, it IS a rule of teh game, and there have been countless other threads regarding it - none of which have been successful in changing it.

I believe the rule is here because of another feature. One which should also have been removed IMO, but nevermind that. Whenever a commander changes alliances, the officers follow. Now if one of those officers was the leader of an alliance, said alliance would become leaderless. This in turn causes admin to have to fix the problems manually, a tedious and timeconsuming task.

If it moves, kill it. If it doesn't move, kick it until it does move, and then kill it.

Which would all beeasilt fixed by making officers not follow their COs when they switch alliances, thus making the alliance leader rule irrevelent.

Which is suggested many times before too.

This topic is going pontless i think...
If it was suggested but not implemented before, means that admins dont want to do it for some reason.
