dude...chill.
But let me tell you why.
A while ago, I had a Rager near hero, and a newbie. My newbie got killed by a certain arial warrior, a merc the warrior had, and a necro. I got pissed, so instead of deleting I logged off for an hour. I got on with my rager, and walking through galadon, heard 3 seperate people yell that this young warrior was attacking them...and low and behold he had his necro friend and merc with him.
The next day, this young arial was an applicant. I spoke loudly against him, and I know of at least one other near hero rager that spoke loudly against him, both in char and in game.
The next day he was inducted...and I was really really pissed.
The next week, I saw this warrior, who had power ranked pretty impressively, talking down to other ragers, and giving orders, and scolding a young one for not realizing that he should have sacced the invis thing at the pit.
I was fricken livid. Not only was this guy a prick, but I had seen nothing from this char other than greed, looting other rager's corpses then logging off, etc.
I was not the only one angry. I know of at least one other rager that brought it to the forum.
What did bringing it to the forum get? the rager who was mad was denounced, and the rager who should not have been a rager was protected from the "character assassination" even tho no names were used, if my memory serves.
I continued to seethe, and even deleted when I saw this rager "accidently" gang two mages early one night, then be held up by the leader as "The example all you villagers who hide in your huts should strive for".
What happened next? The guy was booted, and either deleted for cheating, or deleted on his own. Independant of whatever was going on in the forum.
What was the point to that long, ramble?
My point is this, if the player behind the char got into ragers (insert any cabal here) by lieing, changing rp, etc, 99% of the time they will mess up somewhere down the line and get the boot.
Bringing it to the forum, making people not like you for saying the same things over and over(heh, irony? maybe) solves nothing in game.
If they are a shitbag, it will come back to them, if not, then not.
Either way, just let it ride dude....its a fricken game.
