Default I am not allowed to xp in KC on Sunday?

Am I really not allowed to be in an xp group in KC when VS is in window because of what guild I am in?

Contested or not, I am told every Sunday I need to leave my xp group. I have looked through all the posted rules I could find and I cannot find anything official, and no one I have asked can point me towards any reference other then to say there are cases in the past where an entire guild was suspended because of this.

To be clear, I am in a KC group to xp. I am not participating in the raid if there is a pop, I am not moving from my camps location. I am still told this doesn't matter

If this is a rule, it is really punishing some of those who just want to xp. And currently on Sundays of all days =/

I think you're approaching this wrong. Look at it from a wider perspective, not just your PoV but the other 50-70 people in your guild. There may not be anything in stone that you can point to but your guild is right in this case. Though Sirken has commented on it numerous times in relation to Trakanon on his stream. Guilds have been petitioned for having toons too close to the spawn point. Its tough to prove innocence sometimes so a guild's leadership is going to err on the side caution. The other 50-70 people shouldn't have to suffer because you wanted exp and got your guild petitioned...even if your intentions were innocent.

If your guild doesn't want to take the risk then that's on them. You still have the choice to not be in that guild but it makes perfect sense for a guild leader to want to avoid litigation, especially when its in their complete control such as this scenario is.

If you don't care about raiding VS and want to exp you can leave the guild until he spawns and not participate in the fight and then rejoin your guild after he's dead.

I know it sounds dumb/crazy (it pretty much is) but this is what people do and it is an accepted practice. In ToV people who are ready to complete dragon quests drop their guild and then do the turn ins when the dragon spawns. They get their quest item and do not partake in the fight, rejoining their guild after it is over.

Many guilds see the benefit of members getting 60. They may be cool with you dropping tag to get the exp you need toward that end, or they may not be - as some guilds want people eager to step in and help when a mob spawns. So talk to them and see where the temperature is at with that option.

Either way, be careful if you drop tag to not participate in the fight. Someone will notice, and your guild will eat a suspension and their loot/epic will be deleted.

Has there been a GM ruling about the acceptability of dropping your guild tag to exp? It seems to be common practice among quite a few guilds for alts to exp this way but if someone dropped their tag trying to keep in good standing and still caused a guild to eat a ban that would be really backwards and terrible.

People should get suspended for circumventing the rules like this. You guys brought this on yourselves with your coth ducking bullshit etc, so reap what you sow.
