I accept your terms, on the condition that you equally send us notice when your guild leader (or any member, for that matter) logs our shared toons in an attempt to train us. Also if you could provide a heads-up before you drop the entirety of north on an active Zlexak engage, and have no inclination of assisting in the recovery. And if you'd be so kind to let us know when you plan to blur a raid target with 6 linked guards that are still alive, severing the shared threat, and that we could expect to see a new FTE message.

Something, something, stones glass house, something...

I’d like Wyman to send some tells before he dispells our raid targets. Maybe your clerics can send a tell before /ooc’ing during our CH chain to try to mess us up.

And don’t forget to send a tell before you put 1cp in trade window to our trackers to fuck up bind sight.

Quit the holier than thou bullshit.

You rite, you rite.

Just like I assume your guild leader sent tells to Riot's leadership before attempting to use a port-bot character to train their engaged raid, then lied about doing it when asked about it.

Put your 'holier than thou' bullshit where it actually is: Bullshit.

If you feel the urge to attack someone based on their jobs irl, that makes you look massively triggered and salty

Feeling the need to deflect the course of the nature of the discussion and instead focus on a trivialized, stereotype insult makes you look petty and weak.

Unlike Jesus, who you need.

TBH it's true that Riot leadership has been hypocritical from the very start, for those of us who have been in the battle from its formation -- by that I mean the ones who didn't bitch out and quit because we have to crawl ToV now. Riot's been acting holier than thou since the very beginning, and I'm happy to see they're finally getting some overdue competition.

It's pathetic that the spin is still "Riot are the server good guys". I would have figured in the time I have been gone, people would have wised up; but people don't change.

He was punished for that and so was this guild. Get over it. If you don’t like the punishment then complain to the staff.

The problem is that obviously there’s an atmosphere in Riot that promotes ill-willed behavior towards Freedom because it continues to happen on a weekly basis. Riot should spend their time playing the game, winning FTEs, and having fun instead of coming up with slimy ways to interfere with another guild’s raids.

Both sides, right?!

Except wait. Wyman got guild removed. There were no actual rules for ST racing (if you think there were, try asking yourself whether lev was or was not required and send me a quick clip of that race line). The quickness-gate was an app that was reprimanded, and the idea that there was even a problem smacks of a younger sibling wailing loudly in earshot of a parent more than actual harm.

And then on the other side, we have someone using another guilds bots without permission, actively boxing to do so, coordinating an elaborate train with DA to reach an opposing guilds engagement, obfuscating the IP and machine it was done from, bald faced lying to GMs when confronted about it, and how is that treated? Not guild removal, he is heralded as a martyr. The GMs chalk it up to "a pnp violation" and let him continue not only playing here, but raiding and calling shots, and everybody is supposed to show up to the forums and be nice about it or it is harassment? Is the idea that favoritism was shown in some capacity really that far fetched?

Not to mention the pile-on in the UN in the last couple of days. Planarity asks a straightforward question when an issue is brought up to him, whether we all should engage in a 'fraps or it didnt happen' mindset and every violation has to be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, and only then can a measly concession or two be offered. For that he was instead gaslighted by the the pathological liar that Furoar is, and the...I don't know what you'd call detoxx. Slightly retarded? Either way, instead of properly engaging a topic he only really seems able to bluster about autistically, unaware that ideas and feelings other than his own exist in the world.

When is the right time to cast aside this tribal bullshit and look at the game and how you want to play it? The only time I run OBS when not raiding is when Furoar is in zone, because he has trained me and banked on me not having fraps and it paid off for him. Pretty soon, though, with this blind eye being turned to the quantifiable bullshit that is being heaped onto the server from ag (some) and freedom (a lot), in order to do anything in the game you will need to be constantly recording, taking time to write up petitions, and MAYBE the GMs will rule in your favor about it and toss out a "pnp violation" that hands the offender a slap on the wrist for all your trouble. Eventually nobody will be left on the server except the extreme autists that are chasing pixels and doing anything they can get away with under the negligent/apathetic rule of the server staff.

Seriously, if you were ever looking for an excuse to get away from either Freedom or AG, now is the time. Look at how the Zlex train was handled. After distinctively, albeit accidentally, training Riot on their stable engage, the call was made to get out of ntov in hopes that it could be conceded just before it was eventually killed. When Riot didn't kill it and instead waited for the concede, AGF decides they don't want to be denied a shot a Vulak for something as insignificant as a dumb Zlex train, so they march over there and kill it. I know we all want to root for our team, and other guys bad, and us good, etc etc. But do you really want to be one of the people marching towards a Zlex you know you know should be conceding and killing it anyway? Do you really want to follow Furoar while he is engaging in pathological lying to try to squeeze out any advantage he can in a stupid game of elf lawyer bullshit?

Ignore the forum warrior nonsense for just a bit. I am talking to each and every line member, and I'm letting you know that you are enabling the scumbag style of play that Furoar and Detoxx engage in, and have AG wrapped around their finger and are forcing them to do it along side them. You can absolutely make a difference by just not participating. That doesn't even mean you have to stop raiding. Riot is incredibly inclusive and will allow anybody to app and join save a handful of malicious and problematic players (detoxx, furoar, etc). Look at spending your dkp, start up talks with a Riot recruiter, have some backbone, and vote with your fucking feet. There are a ton of both Freedom and AG players that I miss playing with. DM me if you want and I can get you set up. Fuck these liars and their nonsense.

Reread my post again goober. I said FRAG was able to work out our issue with DB without drama.

You of course realize what you just described applies 100% to Riot training FRAG kiters at LadyM less than an hour prior right? What was Riot’s response? Duru sends tells to our raid leader and tells him that Riot will be vacating the area and moving on. No concession, nothing. The difference is that FRAG stayed and actually killed the target because keeping blockers up is lame. Using this protocol, we returned the favor with Riot. We accidentally trained, vacated the area for a few hours, and gave Riot every chance to kill all of trips and possibly both twins as well. Instead riot wants to try and game a Zlexak concession to score a free Vulak. Concessions should not be weaponized but that is exactly what Riot did with the last Zlex a few weeks back and it's what you did on Saturday as well.

The big difference here of course is that FRAG took the time to go over the fraps again afterwards and we conceded 2x Zlexaks. We got crickets about LadyM from Riot but we decided not to push the issue because we weren’t particularly happy with the angles we had on the train. That goes to your point about fraps: gotta have them on because riot will train the shit out of you and not say a word. Just look at our most recent Vyemm fraps in raid concerns where Riot was chain summoning eyes to train our kiters. What Furoar did was completely wrong and we deserved our punishment and so did he. Riot escalating things with each cycle since then is going to blow up in your face soon enough.

You’re not the good guys and neither are we. Stop with the moral authority bullshit because I have a laundry list of examples that will just paint you as a hypocrite.
