I don’t know if anyone else had this happen but it kicked me out of all of the persistent posses I was apart of as well. And only remained in my own

Normally for most this wouldn’t be an issue and they could just join back later but I met a pretty decent guy and one of his other friends who he knew in real life when I first started playing in November 2023 who both helped me get started. We hung out fairly often and were good friends. He told me after a few weeks of knowing him that he has cancer. Never told me what kind and I didn’t want to push the question because I just wanted to be a good friend and not remind him of it. He was on treatment, things seemed fine. He passed on may 14th 2024. His friend told me. I dedicated a persistent posse slot to stay in his persistent posse forever. When I log on this morning before work to knock out a daily I see this and looked online. And that’s when I see I’m no longer in his posse

He’s not alive to add me back and I doubt when rockstar gets it fixed I’ll be added back. A little heartbreak to start the day

I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. From what I've seen, you should still be a member of his posse, it's just the way the posse name is displayed in the menu and to other players when roaming around. If you scroll through your posses in the menu list, it will display in the bottom left of the screen the posse leader's name (even if they all only display POSSE as the posse name right now) and his name should still be there as a leader.

I understand the way this is displayed this is only temporary, whilst Rockstar sorts out some profanity filters behind the scenes so fingers crossed it will be sooner rather than later.

Unfortunately that’s not the case for me. I did look in there and I saw that people were seeing that in their posse lists it was just labeled “POSSE” but for me they were all gone except mine that was just my PSN name

I really appreciate your condolences and I do hope that when rockstar fixes this it will return me back into his posse but I’m not sure if that will happen
