I am in the process of reading through the site posts and as I was doing so I came across posts relating to our bored tank from Sunday night.

Quote from: JonnyAppleSeed;302909I was grabbed by sokhar last night just after the raid where he pointed out how crap I am at running the raids and im too week to be a guild leader. I should apoint a raid leader as soon as possible as im just plane rubbish. All the wipes we had were my fault and the whole night was a chore and people will leave

Anyway thats him scrached off the list ... tho i do think he ment it in a nice way :roflmao:

Quote from: TeaLeaf;302857I would be extremely concerned if Sokhar was even remotely considered for any leadership role in this guild, for far too obvious historical reasons and given full knowledge of his lack of inter-personal skills.  He has caused people to quit as far back as I can remember with his caustic comments and attitude, right back as far as when I was raid leading in SOG RG1 and we were about to pull Vaelatraz and his comments on TS caused Ragnarh (our MT1 at the time) to log off & quit the game on the spot (he was never to return).

This guy does not appear to have covered himself in glory in the past and my first real encounter with him in a progression raid setting was to be told he had decided to log off because he was bored. This could have quite easily spoiled the whole raid for the other twenty four people who were online. As I said on the night he would probably have recieved a gkick from Ovo for that kind of behaviour / attitude. I fully understand if that is not the policy within dMr but he needs taking to task in some way if he has not already been dealt with. The loss of raider status was discussed, I think the final descision should come from the officers who have known him longest and I am not advocating any particular sanction, if a few strong words are all that is felt is needed then that is fine by me. At the moment I have no idea what his worth to the guild is or what ripples may be caused amonst other guild members if he was dealt with too harshly. but for the good of future raids, I feel some action should be taken.

By the way if some action has been already taken please ignore this post. I have just finished nights missed the tuesday night raid and WOW is down for maintenance ...Got to release my frustrations in some form or other :devil:

I noticed he still had honoured status last night but with the facts that were presented after Sundays raid he should be demoted to friendly in my opinion.

As for the history, Sokhar was one of our most consistent raiders for a while but has been one of the least consistent over the last couple of months.

Leaving a raid because your bored is totally unacceptable...

Well we did have a talk about demotion after the raid and I thought we decided on sending a pm.. I think we were going to send in fatbob tho nothing was finalised

From my side I would prefer Hal to send a pm as he's the tanking officer and see if he can explain his actions and what he wants from the game. If that's a problem ill send one
