This may not be the best solution if you want a new leader(but you do have to be the leader at the time you do this).
I was a leader of a guild for about 6 months, I wanted to move on, and some of the guild was leaving the game, we had about 6 members besides myself. I told everyone that I was going to do a /guildremove as I was going to another guild, also wanted to see what was going to happen, and when I did one of the guys told me that I removed myself from the guild and one of the remaining players was the leader.
So I guess if you are the leader then you can remove yourself and it will assign a new leader for the guild.
It won't auto assign a leader for the guild, the position will remain null until someone sets allegiance for someone, then it will make them the leader.
However, if the old leader rejoins they will automatically become leader again because the system does not recognize them as ever being voted out.
I cant reply before because i had some problems with the forum, but i have to say you are wrong, sorry. Actually the guild leader come back to the terminal and he dont be reassigned as leader.

I'm speaking from personal experience from, so I know that a leader is not automatically assigned if the leader quits. When the leader rejoins all they have to do it go back to the mission terminal and give themselves permissions like they would any other member and they are back into the leadership position.
The only way that a new leader is assigned when the leader quits is if someone sets allegiance for a member and then someone will be moved to leader. If something else is happening, then it was changed at some point and not mentioned in patch notes or it is a new bug.
No, ok, that point is correct, the new leader have to wait to the update of the guild hall to be leader. But if the old leaderrejoin he dont be reinstaured as leader again.
We made this:
1. The old leaderremove himself from the guild
2. The new leader recive at leats one allegiance vote.
3. The old leader rejoins the guild.
4. In the next update the new leader was the leader's guild without problems ![]()
I dont know if this is a bug or what but i think this is a good system to work with it. Better than the other method ![]()
Edited: I forgot to comment that this was several months ago and we repeated this process the last month, so i think this is in the game since the beginning ![]()

Yes.
The guild would then be without one unless the Leader or another member placed a new one.
However, remember that the PA Hall does NOT control the fate of the guild, so the owner of the hall can't disband or takeover the guild.
