Guilds get called out when they do shit. You are not the first guild to be called out and wont be the last.

Except the guild didn't do it. We didn't all gather up and say, "Let's go buy some plat with RL money!!"
Is your entire guild defined exclusively by the bad things your members do? If some of your guildies group up and go deliberately and repeatedly train, and you find out about it two weeks later... did your GUILD do that? Is that what your GUILD is, a bunch of training jerks?
Or is that the bad behavior of a few people who do NOT represent the spirit of your guild? And if an officer found out and removed them without the knowledge of your GM, would they STILL be the end-all representatives of your guild??
Is YOUR guild defined by the mistakes or even outright jerkish things your members do? Or is your guild defined by the people who are most invested in it and who do the most for it? Who gets to decide for you, who defines your guild most thoroughly?

I'm in DW. The officers of DW actively encourage us to sniff out RMT'ers and invite them into the guild (in fact, we pay them real money to bribe them to join, that's how hardcore RMT we are).
Actually, Dark Winter is basically anyone level 5-40 that is leveling on the server right now. I'm just a random, and was invited at random, but I can tell you that 99% of DW folk (that are active in guild chat) are just normal people that probably don't even know what the acronym RMT stands for.
Seriously, you have people in this guild asking such newb questions about EQ. Super innocent folks... it's funny that people think some great justice was served here to some big evil guild-- that's not the case at all. There just happens to be a huge number of people in the guild from rapid-fire ginvites.
DW is really just a zerg. That said, everyone active in gchat is helpful and friendly so I wanted to come to their defense. Whoever was RMT'ing were probably just rando alts of rich RMTers that wanted to have a guild tag/green text to read.

LOL, Yeah, I can't count how many times this evening I had to explain RMT (and I didn't know what it meant, myself... though I understood as soon as it was explained).
But some people just enjoy hating entire groups of people. It has never made sense to me, still doesn't. What are ya gonna do.
