(I've submitted a support ticket about this, but it's been a day or so and I thought I'd ask other player's advice)

 

A few friends and I started a guild a few weeks ago. I was the guildmaster, two of my friends, and a guy we paid to help us, who subsequently left the guild.

 

After a while, I accumulated the credits to open a guild bank. I had a few alts put into the guild, bribed some people to help us, and ended up with 13 people total in the guild. I am a subscriber, though my sub -did- lapse earlier this week. It is currently active now that I was paid at my job.

 

For some reason, I can't seem to start a guild bank. I've got over 900k on me, but the guild vault spot won't "highlight" or activate when I click on it. I -should- still be the guildmaster of the guild, unless my subscription lapsing for a few days would have set one of the other subscribers in the guild as the guildmaster. Any ideas?

Only subscribers may be guild leaders of subscriber guilds, the system will automatically pass guild leadership on to the highest ranked active subscriber in your guild once your account changes to free-to-play.

That is probably whats causing the problem, you are no longer the GM.

Ugh, I was afraid that was the issue. Alright, I'll have the other player hand it back to me at some point. Thanks!
