This is at the heart of it all. Had we had clear rules about tracker fte not locking you out of other targets, Riot wouldn't have been pissed off about Lord K.

Every time Detoxx pulls a screencap of a GM ruling from 3 years ago, I lose faith in the system because everyone should have all the same information laid out clearly.

Agreed, it's not helpful that the rules are spread out between 3 or 4 different threads and previous rulings set precedent but aren't easily searchable. The point I was trying to make was more that the GMs expect players to police themselves (via said vague rules) and submit petitions, which leaves the GMs having to spend their time playing "he said, she said" and rooting through logs and 5 different video recordings of a single event days or even weeks after the fact. It introduces a larger chance of them getting it wrong and it creates more work for them in the long run. They'd be much better off if they just actively refereed every contested raid target proactively, and the only way they could feasibly do that is if they quaked every week at a time of their choosing so they could make sure they're available for it.
GMs taking an afternoon to put all the raid rules in one spot would be a nice-to-have but as long as raiders are expected to police themselves, you're going to have a toxic raid environment. P99 has been lawyerquest since its inception a decade ago, through multiple raid rulesets. It's pretty clear that's the inevitable outcome of the self-policing system.
