What will happen to our city? Will it continue to go on until we get a new mayor or will it go poof when the account goes poof?
Need to know...cause i think our mayor is either absentee or quit and told no one. The city is self sufficiant and just goes on..and our militia grants rights, but we have not heard from the mayor for about a month now...so what will happen if the character is deleted????
Please help

City will go away. City Hall will disappear thus no city.

Is there no way to get the city hall to not go pop...besides the obvious election process...we're tried to get others to vote,but the pre programed incumbent vote gives his character the edge...and i fear that half of the town does not even know what is going on...i've emailed them all and have recieved only a few replies...either they don't care or don't play as much.
Is there no way for a mayor to just step down? Retire? Resign? then the management would default to the militia? I am sure then a canidate can be voted it with a clean vote...no incumbent to vote for the new political leader?
Seriously this screws with player cities...we have one that makes it's own money and no need for many to get involved...a place to store stuff and craft needed items...buy items, etc. We tried to get enough votes together but always come up short on votes...some people don't log in like they used to and we can't add new players to topple the vote...we are at our building limit to add others and we have tried using smaller houses too...it was a pain.
Is there nothing that can be done?

First, the city will only disappear if the character is deleted.
Even if the account is cancelled, the character is there. You do have some time to get a new mayor elected. No, there is no mechanism to step down and this has been a long time gripe of Politicians.
What you do have to worry about is that some time in October, cancelled accounts that are six months or older are going to start being deleted once a month. Once the mayor's account is purged, your city will vanish.
So stay calm and start organizing people to vote. It will not be easy, but it is possible and you do have at least some time to fix the situation.
