I will admit that Durison, and a lot of other people in the guild liked Raren at first. He was active, showed up to raids, and for the most part did his job. However - the standards and direction of the guild at that time were vastly different than they are now. When Raren was a member, we were a fairly new raiding force on the server and trying to find our place in the raid scene. There was a lot of turn over in the guild and the officers at the time, albeit good players, were not the best leaders. That atmosphere made active and vocal members like Raren appear to be valuable assets to the guild. Raren did show up, do his job, and did recieve loot because of it. However - it did not take long for him to show his true colors - and that is why he is not currently and will not be a member of DA in the future.
That being said - showing up and doing your job doesn't make someone a leader, officer material, or even mean that they are exceptional at their class. I've played with a lot of good enchanters - IV was blessed with some godly enchanters like Butch and the original Kaerus, and DA has it's fair share of good enchanters like Daishelo (Athiyk) who is probably also one of the best necros I have ever played with... Raren is not in the same class as those players - not by a long shot.
