...I am just going to step in here and say that the "Syssin" did not make this decision. I don't feel the need to air any other dirty laundry of the Guild beside that.
However, in defense of the players, after the "plan" was executed and … -
First, I'm just going to give a shout-out to the Syssin. Many of you don't deserve the shade and I love you lots and always.

I just want to say that @Sessizlik kicked ASS with the commission she did for me. If any of you need an artist who is quick, thoughtful, and easy to work with con…

Incentive: I am willing to pay 200 credits (or RL cash of lesser value, maybe $35?) for a completed piece, but there is a hard deadline of 2/15 by noon EST. Let me know!

(Quote) It's pretty hard to offend me because I don't take argument and disagreement personally and don't internalize the opinions of people who have no bearing on my life. People are going to disagree... Sometimes passionately. Such is life.
I am not saying that conflicts planned with parameters to make sure no one feels slighted, occasionally, can work. I just don't think it's sustainable and it certainly cannot make up for actual game-generated or spontaneous player-driven conflict in…(Quote) Aetolia is a multiplayer, conflict driven, multi-user dungeon. Therefore, I don't think it's crazy to suggest that people be ready for conflict upon logging in. Not that they should be regularly logging into raid situations... Of course no…(Quote) What if the people are just unreasonable and just don't want any conflict? Or, at the very most, don't want conflict that they know they can't/won't win?

But I also want to personally thank in Changing of the guard Comment by Faerah December 2016I normally just message Becue when I have a concern with a comment made. I don't wait for it to be elevated to her. This has helped me multiple times and also prevents a lot of drama.Faerah is very direct and terse. If she can say something in two words, she typically will. She's also rather dismissive of people, or notions she simply does not agree with.
