I have been given power time to be afraid

So ,
When the guild I had been in for 2 years broke up the guild I am now in Whoville started. When we started some people even asked me if I wanted to be an officer , but at the time I wasn't even sure if I would stay with the off shoot from my old guild or decide to take my druid and go Ronin for awhile.

One of the people who was an officer, she was healing raid leader and guild XO, had to leave the game for personal reasons. The guild has been holding her position open for her with the hopes that she would be able to come back, however recently it became clear that she would not return.

I am not sure why they decided to open up the position, but this weekend I was asked to fill it. Part of me wanted to say no; every time I end up officially taking a responsibility role in a hobby or game it sucks all the fun out of it for me. After consideration though I said yes because I realized that I have been doing the job anyways, and the position gives me the official sanctioning in case someone in the future questions why they should listen to me during raids.

I am also thinking that there is a good chance I won't have the role for long, because I have to be one of the slower levelers in the game. I have 2 70's after 2 1/2 years and one just dinged not that long ago.

Hmmmm, maybe that will be part of my evil plan to not have responsibility long. I will level at my usual pace and as the guild grows I will recruit good healers and see who hits 80 first and seems to want the mantle and happily give the title and worries of leadership once again
