Do keep in mind that it wasn't his intention to run up to the engage after it was over, (un?)luckily getting filmed the entire way. He was betting on showing up mid-engage, and being yet another riot name lost in the mire. He was betting on his VM or install on a pc he never used, coming from a VPN or cell hotspot being enough to obscure him (protip: they can see not only the MAC address of your machine and your IP address, they can also see the MAC address of your connection point such as router, cell phone, whatever. It's part of the packet that your machine receives). Evidence of this is his bald faced lying to the GMs when confronted about it.
People don't realize that this isn't a one-off offense. Not everybody hanging out, playing the game to have some fun, is running fraps and going hard on the elf lawyer bullshit. When you see something like this, especially from an established player who is in a leadership position of a competitive guild and has plenty of familiarity with the server rules, you are only seeing the tip of the iceberg. I've been trained by Furoar before. He banked on me not recording it. It paid off for him. This is one opportunity for the entire server to see what an actual scumbag he is, and he gets away with a punishment so light, it could never be imagined to be extended to any other player for doing just a fraction of what he did. Of course these questions of money and/or favoritism are coming up. He still has any and all gear he has collected over the years. He can still log in any non-suspended account. He can still collect dkp for the entire period of his suspension.
