Tonight I suggested we go to Gfay and help out the underpriveleged who are farther from the server's heart of commerce.

We had a good turnout, about 20 folks, most got items, all got buffs. Saidar saw fit to use it as a gold-mine of much needed attention, and attempted to disrupt it with Jboot spamming, and immature antics like this:

[Sun Jul 11 20:48:17 2010] Saidar says, 'the person to have the worst insult for Jaladin wins Savant's Cap - GO!'

The lower level folks were mature enough to ignore him. Eventually he went away, ignored by the folks who were more caught up in the enjoyable social event that it was.

I spoke to Norril, from his guild, while he was showing his ass. He felt that since jboot spamming was not against the rules it was fine by him, and that since he did give away an item he was justified in being a douche in the process.

It doesn't take a particularly brilliant individual to find ways to troll without breaking any rules. However, whether a person breaks rules or not, every action comes with consequences.

I have no interest in putting anyone on blast, or persuading anyone of my opinion on the matter. I feel like the community is the most important and definitive aspect of classic everquest. I spend a lot of my time looking for folks who are struggling, because I know how frustrating it is to be in need, and to have to find someone willing to help. Even if that person is so pitiful that they can't get someone to speak to them without resorting to this behavior.

If I saw you naked with a corpse in the middle of nowhere, I would still offer to help, because it might spark a redeeming quality in you, and it costs me nothing to give someone more respect than is due.

It seems pretty hard to take internal action when you have a guild leader and an officer core with no self control.

Didn't you recently get a character banned for boxing too? So where is the plan to realign a known duper out of your guild?

Is DA going to dupe themselves a few more officers to handle this issue? I know a few of them are on vacation right now.

I'm going to go ahead and disagree with you - I think it is very possible for both guilds to get along. I personally get along with everyone in IB I know despite guild tensions. This may come as a shock to you, but some of the people who play here are capable of acting rational. In fact, I would say we're already moving in a hopeful direction.
