I really hope its not true about you also being a guide because I don't see how it is going to end well for anyone.
Since you *refuse* to let it go i'm going to explain what happened in a way that even an idiot like you should be able to understand. Really tired of people like you with nothing better to do trying to ruin my reputation. I actually used to like you Swish before you mutated into whatever the hell you are now. Never wronged you in any way. You have just become a pretty sad individual.
The truth, like most things, is not as interesting as the rumor mill. So don't dig out the popcorn just yet.
The History:
Autofiring became a pretty big thing among the top guilds after the C/R raid system was implemented. Trackers could still FTE at this time but variances were reduced to 16 hours. this meant that all of a sudden other guilds could spend some time to compete and TMO was starting to lose their stranglehold on every mob in the game.
I was an Officer of Taken at the time and we were doing really well. A few weeks into it something changed. TMO was getting all the FTEs again. a lot of them before the mob was even visable on the screen. AFK necros at the Faydedar spawnpoint had pets instantly engaging wandering trash mobs as soon as they got into line of sight. It was pretty obvious what was going on.
The facts:
1. I used autofire twice. I logged the results and sent them to Nilbog to show what was going on. It was an attempt to shed light on the situation so that there could be change. Below is a screenshot of that PM. Enjoy

2. It was never a secret. I talked about it openly. Sorry.
3. I never got an FTE using it. Sorry again!
4. The mistake I made was that I didn't wait to get the okays from the GMs to do this before I actually did this. I also didnt consider that Nilbog probably never even looked at my PM, so the GMs did not know at all and that's on me. It was explained to me that if I had communicated it beforehand I would not have gotten into trouble. But i recieved a 30 day suspension and not a lifetime ban because i was honest upfront.
5. I did NOT avoid a lifetime ban from supposedly being a rat on guildmembers. see above. And here is the petition itself for the people who continue to call me a liar.

6. It ultimately shed light on the issue and resulted in changes to the raid scene to prevent it from happening anymore. This was exactly what I was after. But yes I went about it in the wrong way. I accepted my punishment.
7. I stepped down as an Officer of Taken of my own choice. I was not removed, it was not "implied" that i should resign. They actually tried to talk me out of it. I did it because of the politics and insanity of the raid scene was stressing me out and making the game no longer fun. Anyone who raids in the high end, especially leadership, knows exactly what i mean.
Thats the facts. The trolls will continue to try and tarnish me but I want the people with working brains to know the truth. This is the last time I will ever speak on this. Let it go. Thanks.
