I do want to know how these cases will be handled in the future. Fear is messy, shit happens even when people are being careful. Even during regular trash clears people pull trains on their own group by accident.

I want to know how the train happened. Can any guild that gets social agro on a kite and dies claim they were trained no matter the circumstance? I hear Rogean may have seen it. Is that why it was handled the way it was? Did Rogean see it and determine that it was a legit train? If this shit ever happens to another guild, we should know exactly what constitutes a "train" and when it's the fault of the kiter.

We fucked up. It wasn't intentional. Rogean gave us a time out to think about what we did.

I wonder how going into a plane and starting up a pretty much zone-wide train of mobs while another group is already in the zone actively killing mobs interacts with:

8. You may not disrupt the normal playability of a zone or area.

Zone/Area Disruption is defined as any activity designed to harm or inconvenience a number of groups rather than a specific player or group of players. This includes, but is not limited to::

-Monopolizing most or all of the kills in an area.
Seems to me if a group is in the zone already fighting mobs and somebody just starts kiting the mobs in a circle with 0 plan of actually killing them, then they're guilty of monopolizing those mobs.

The last part was directed at the server in general not you or your guild Merkk.

Kiting fear to kill CT is classic, and should be a valid tactic. The kite is going to be centered around the fear portal by necessity due to its distance from CT's spawn point. You have to fight CT where he spawns because if you move him, you will waste too much time while he jogs his big ass towards your raid, and the adds will wipe you.

Since you have to fight him where he spawns, that corner with the portal provides the most distance between you and the adds. You can literally set up your fear clear raid anywhere but that corner and be 100% safe from the kite. The portal is a dangerous place to set up even when CT isn't around. You definitely shouldn't be standing there when he's up.

I drew you guys a map to illustrate this point:
