Why do Awakened members even stay?

I understand the thought behind posts like this but all I see is someone trying so hard to kick someone when they're down. It's quite a good reflection of you I suppose.

Just shows how poisonous the competition is and what the raid scene has come to. The lengths some people go to best the other. There has been so many bad decisions and shady things done by almost all of the top raiding guilds that have been on this server. Sometimes intentional, sometimes not.

When I see people go to the lengths of getting a spy recruited to another guild so they can use screenshots of guild chat or forum posts to use in RNF it reminds me what type of people I'm dealing with.

As for the recent suspensions, these were not intentional things done by leadership to screw the server around. These were bad decisions made by members, members that have seen or learned these things from the competition, everyone is guilty of similar doings.

I believe when you're sitting at the top and you're in such a terrible atmosphere to play in you're under the microscope. In turn, Sirken falls under the microscope. I believe when the shenanigans reach a certain point something needs to be done and he got it done.

Awakened is being made an example of. We pushed too hard to be the best, made a few mistakes along the way and are paying the price for everyone in the raid scene here. Should the competition have paid also? Yes but that's not always the point I suppose.

I can say though that if I was in a leadership role and was kicked continuously when I was down by the community like this I would probably say screw it. Fuck all your player agreements and your attempts to resolve issues etc. we will abide by server and GM rules only and petition your complaints. It would make the environment for everyone more toxic but when this is what you're dealing with I wouldn't want to work with any of you but I suppose that's why I'm not in that role.

So to finish with a quote, the time for honouring yourselves will soon be at an end, look forward to getting back to some more healthy competition.

Man that Koolaid is strong.

I raided a long time on this server before hanging it up. Noone from IB, Rampage or TMO cheated as blatantly as Awakened does.
