Every Monday Scott Andrews contributes Officers' Quarters, a column about the ins and outs of guild leadership.

It's been a couple of weeks since I answered a letter, so let's jump right into it!

Hi there,

I've been in my guild for about half a year now, basically since i started playing WoW. In that time I've gone up from newbie member to officer and done quite a lot of work for the guild (if i may say so myself lol) like starting and setting up the guild site, creating a guild bank, starting a recruitment spree and such things.

Recently I've run into the next problem though: With the guild growing, my GL has become more and more negative in general and is basically only complaining.

I've tried to talk to her about it (being an officer i think its my responsibility to give feedback to others, GL included) in private, which didn't really [have] any effect. After another negative and, other than that, empty response from her on the forum I replied to her in public (well semi-public, it being in the officers' corner of the forum) [and asked] everyone to keep an upbeat attitude and to not complain but instead to come up with solutions (or at least try to do so). I'm really hoping this will work, but I fear that it might not (lol, upbeat attitude?).
