@Alli and the rest, the dragons weren't rooted because there were too many guilds in tov. The chain of events seem to be, at least from the outside, Sirken gets forced out, Braknar immediately starts losing his shit about how toxic the raid scene is, posts a FULL GUILD ROTATION on the forums after the very first petition (For real, I think it was actually the first petition, AG AM and Core competed for a month or two pretty happily/without major drama after Tempest died- also was probably the most fun I had in TOV, all 3 guilds had a legit shot at every mob) Braknar loses his shit [You must be logged in to view images.

That's my take at least
You aren't wrong but neither is Alli, its a combination of the 2, imo. Even when it was just A/A it was pretty toxic but I think manageable. When it turned into 4 guilds sittin at the ent with AG and kittens or whoever, etc, joined in the poopsocking it became overwhelming, likely drastically increasing the amount of petitions, which lead to Braknar losing his shit. At least that's how I remember it.
