What does this even mean? I googled and it's not helping. If you just mean bad people or douches, that is shocking considering how nice they seem on the surface. Always giving away noob gear to the new players there and helping each other out.
Great cover giving away 400pp or less items while rmting 1000M K Pp on the side has to be good! waitttttt

If you are talking about Dark Winter there is nothing wrong with having a twinked alt in a low level guild. I have a fungi tunic'ed shaman in that guild doesn't have anything to do with RMT.

I've been playing on this server for almost 3 years and have 3 50+ characters. I can't have a twink in Dark Winter? I just like having people to talk and group with while I level.

Yup, nothing at all wrong there.

Sorry for those still waiting on petitions but I'm going to have to look at them in the morning. I've been up for 24 hours at this point.

One of the other GM's might be able to get to it, if not it could be 12 to 36 hours.

I mean... I can only speak for myself. I don't really know them that well just joined randomly when I grouped with them in MM the other day. But what I can say is that it is possible to have a low level twink that isn't in a raiding guild.

So don't go persecuting people with no evidence. In any case I trust that Rogean knows what he is doing when he bans people.

Get some sleep dude, sad that you have to work your ass off cleaning up things people should know better about.

Interesting.

Derubael suddenly "retires" without a farewell, and a few days later the RMT bans start.

hmmmmm. GM kingpin busted?

Devs cleaning house due to sony selling everquest?

In hindsight, I'm guessing someone knew this was coming. I'm new to the server, totally unknown, but today before the server down, I got a tell asking me to hold so he could transfer. I just assumed that it was just mistaken identity, so I just said no. After the server up sure enough that person was gone, and they were in the aforementioned guild. So word maybe got out ahead of the shutdown. If not, then just odd timing.

Ban Hammer happens Tax Season when the "kingpin's" taxes are available. Everything has to be itemized and named, so info is probably very easy to obtain.

Not rocket science.

I say this respectfully. It is very upsetting that Dark Winter is being globally demonized.

Do you believe that people would admit to RMTing? If we asked, "Oh, and before we invite, have you ever bought in game money with rl money?" do you think they'll say "yeah!" if they have?

Being in the guild, I want to say that there are MANY wonderful people in it. And I certainly count myself as one of them. I LOVE to help newbies and I often sit and buff others. I love the guild. It's the first place I've felt that people "get" my jokes. We group together often, and we talk all the time.

Today we went crawling through Permafrost and then killed ourselves a few times in SolA... because my guildies weren't scared to explore.

I've found DW to be a haven of old-school style EQ manners, good people, and very giving friends. They get my humor (or tolerate it), and we're kind to each other and others. So many are "old" EQers from "back in the day" and play with strategy and with the way they treat each other in groups. So refreshing!

We have never once knowingly invited anyone who RMTs, KSs, deliberately trains, or is otherwise a dink or a jack***. Yes, we've recruited like crazy. Poor Healover and poor Dibbons are always running about. I have great sympathy for them, lol.

But at the end of the day, it is very hurtful for someone like me, and so many in the guild, to be painted with a loaded brush.

I'm upset that these people did this. It destroys the integrity of the game, and I'm ashamed they were wearing our tag when they did it. But I'm furious with THEM, not with our wonderful guild.

Please reconsider slathering us all as cheaters and jerks. We aren't! There are tons of great people here. We welcome more. We have a zero tolerance outlook on something like this, and if we find out, we keep a list... you're NEVER welcome back. We don't care if you're sorry. Not good enough.

That's all I have to say.

Thank you,

Wyldwind
