Awakened's tracker got FTE on naggy.
The tracker camped out and Naggy stayed up for 30 more minutes until they killed him.
This lead to a 10 day ban, followed by a wave of abuse toward Awakened for thinking that they can step all over the rules.

Is your argument that Awakened's tracker should have zoned out to lavastorm, zoned back in, and somehow the Tracker FTE would be "cleared"? (no, that sounds absurd)

In both cases, A and A both assumed that they had adequately mitigated the Yellow Text of their tracker. However, Yellow Text on a tracker has 100% strikethrough. It is un-mitigatable!

Sirken's ruling is one of consistency. If a character is past the FTE line when a mob spawns, that character is considered a tracker for the duration of that mob's lifespan.


Aftermath now have the opportunity to do what Awakened didn't do, and take this ban with good grace. However, this thread is full of nothing but bad jimmies and finger-pointing.
Accept the mistake, take a timeout for 10 days and come back next cycle ready to smash some incredibly old raid content.

Try to track and then FTE some pussy this weekend, Aftermath.

No failure in real life can diminish the shame you should feel about yourself, for being a part of this incident

This is more or less where I'm at. Having a tracker move to the FTE line and become an FTEr prior to the mob spawning seems perfectly valid and no longer makes them the tracker as long they are not passed the starting line at time of spawn. However, once the mob has spawned, the person tracking at the time of spawn is now considered the tracker until the mob is dead, regardless of them zoning, camping, starting from the line, whatever.

Though I do think (read: imo) it's pretty silly to petition a guild for something that has 0 impact on you. Would be another story if it was CSG petitioning..

Yeah, that's not what happened.

Guy logs in his naggy/vox alt in lair (break #1), sets off YT when he loads in (break #2), then they tried to play the "that was an accident, we didn't know you couldn't do that defense. Plus, Naggy was contested, this Doze wasn't. The two situations couldn't be more different.

It seems to me like there is a huge difference between having a tracker get FTE and having a tracker zone out, become a racer, and get FTE.

also still waiting for A/A to realize that spending this much time on FTE/tracking on a server that will never reach luclin is pretty insane
