Training
Training can be defined as the intentional manipulation of NPC Placement and Aggro in such a way that causes it to attack another player that it wouldn't have otherwise if at it's normal spawn location. The most basic form of this is "dumping" mobs near another player or party and escaping via a form of teleportation or death. Intentional or not, this is against the rules. This rule is not limited to the basic example given, as there are many different forms of training players will use. You take all responsibility for mobs that you aggro. If you are trying to escape from a pack of NPC's but there is another group in your way, do not run through them. Even if your intention is not to train them, it would inevitable cause this and you may be subject to disciplinary. It is recommended that you take the death (Your responsibility for aggroing the mobs) and request a resurrection from nearby players.
If you happen to accidentally train a group of players, please immedietely notify the staff via /petition that you have done so by accident. Apologize to the players in question, and assist them with any recovery needed. If the staff hears about your train before you tell them, intention is no longer an excuse. (Repeated unintentional trains will still result in disciplinary action).

Although Rogean is very strict on this specific policy, I think it can be even stricter. You know how many times my guild has wiped from trains during a raid? Its ridiculous. Its primarily the reason why I don't want to raid here as often as I would like. I dont want my time wasted because some dbag with a sense of entitlement brings a few beez on top of us to get the upper hand in a raid target.
Any person doing that should be banned. Its so disrespectful on many levels. Recovering a raid force from a train takes a lot of time and not everyone can log in for extra time just because some **** wanted to get an advantage.
It also ruins the PR of a guild - hate to say it, but just because it is the action of one person, I personally feel that if a guild lets a person like that do that stuff they are equally responsible. Dont invite dbags into your guild, or guildremove them once they take actions like that. I would expect my guild to remove me if I had that behavior. Other guilds turn a blind eye and say "Hmm, yeah we didnt tell personx to do that, sorry". Sorry is NOT good enough. Reprimand and no repeat behavior is.
I think we all can agree that we have experienced this and want this to be something considered when re-writing our raiding rules.
