I’ve always wondered why and how did Furor have so much sway?

My theory is that:
1. Family/friend/acquaintance of people related to the game, more likely since he started before the game blew up to a mainstream one in Kunark and Velious
And/or
2. They treated him like a 'diamond' level member, since he purchases the game, pays subscription, re-joins after ban, while being a full time tester 18 hours a day, proactively gives suggestions (usually via complaints), markets indirectly with his guild forums, actively tries toget people to join the game, usually from other games, etc, something only a paid worker would do. Top few guilds really helped adding hype to the game, which helped with sales and subscription, and he was basically one of the top influencer of the game at that time
