Being present.
I believe that it's a responsibility of being the guild leader to be the "glue" or the "anchor" of the guild. If you aren't present then the anchor is gone.
It isn't difficult to maintain a presence even if you aren't online all the time.
Ways to be omnipresent.
- Give the guild ways to contact you off-line - I give my personal phone number, e-mail, and they can use DiscordApp.com to contact me. For the most part, even with my 250 person guild, people don't use it. Just like you, they like to maintain some distance as well and will respect it.
- Participate in a little of everything - I like to be involved a little in everything so I understand the dynamics of the issues involved in those things. Even if I don't raid with all the raid teams every time, occasionally making appearance is a great way to let the guild know you are hands-on!
Don't give your guild members a moment to wonder... where is everyone and is it time to start looking again.
