Furor was a douche who was banned multiple times. His original character wasn't Furor at all it was a rogue who was banned for all sorts of unsavory things. It's funny to see a post looking back at him with reverence, and then see 20 posts complaining about TMO monopolizing content.
FOH not only did it on their own server (10x as bad) but they used inside developer knowledge (a lot of the EQ devs raided with them) to monopolize server-wide firsts.
I was fortunate enough to be one of the first 50 or so players invited to EQ beta due to my connections through Tanarus (SOEs online tank game before EQ) and this guy was a shitstain.
Any old school TMO people can ask the founder of their guild on FR, Edarion (if anyone still is in contact that is). Him and I go way back to the Tanarus days so he may remember Furor pre EQ fanboi fame as I do. In fact if anyone still talks to him tell him to stop by sometime and Krunch from Tanarus says hello.

I guess the moral of the story is that often times people look back on those with "power" as if they were some larger than life bucket of awesomesauce. The guy was an ass, plain and simple. He doesn't deserve the credit people give him. At least he ended up where he belongs, making shitty WoW raid content. |
That still goes on till this day... was a part of a couple "world first guilds" and they don't really earn it on the skill front... in SWTOR my guild (and others) had developers feed them the strat to see if it was doable or too difficult for players
They earned it on the PR front though.
