    Its almost like it's a private forum with a set of rules people agreed to follow!

    Swifty got banned, perma-banned from the game. Which is, in my own opinion, not even a greater punishment then Ensidia abusing Saronite Bombs in LK HC 25. They got a 72 hour ban, Swifty should get atleast the same. Swifty DID got an infraction before, where he used the haste-axe from Shadow Labs to own the last boss in Arcatraz within seconds.

    I got suspended several times, if I do it a few times more I lost my account. It's that simple. People, how famous they are ( Amy Whinehouse, Simpson ) cannot stand above the law. If that was the case every celebrety could murder and go free.
    i kinda agree with what you're saying, i think he should have been banned, but not perma-banned. just a 48/72hour ban, perma-ban for this seems a little over the top.

    How you follow threw when there is a problem is what matters. He chose to be cool and not bail, or kill it. Even people speaking to a highly volitile grp know there is a point where you have to change how things are being said or you will get a fevor you can't control. The situation was avoidable, he chose to save face. Woops on him

    So to say; looking at the aftermath of Swifty's ban has caused more problems than the event itself. After reading through some posts, it looks like Darkspear isn't enjoyable at all at the moment. Would be best to un-ban Swifty to make this all stop - He didn't do anything wrong after all..

    Swifty did not stop the stream/mute zybak or make any attempt at all to tell his viewers to not crash the server.
    Okay let us pretend we are watching this live stream, and we are one of those lvl 1....

    *Watching live steam and it all of a sudden goes away*

    So at that point ALL of those lvl 1's start spamming "What happened???" "Get it back" etc etc...

    It then will cause a server crash resulting in? The same exact thing

    And stopping Zybak from egging them on? Zybak has a thing called free will and can do whatever he wants.

    The other people on the server? Yeah I feel bad for them as well.

    There is no good or bad in this, everyone was effected on the server.

    And he didn't host the event, the guild did

    It was a fake "livestream" video posted on youtube to get the very same reaction that we are seeing now.

    Also, He crashed three servers. Crashed one, they moved servers. Crashed another, moved servers. Crashed another, moved servers. GM Banned him when they logged on the 4th.

    I'm not a hater. But he deserved it. They can't unban him simply because he is popular, or what message does that send to other youtube heroes?
    I may be a little naive believing these facts, but I might as well.

    That little cover-up is enough for me to have him go from "neutral" to "lul-worthy" in my books. :\

    I definitely agree with this.

    no, but if he turned off the stream, logged out of the game, he would have nothing to do with it, just write in his chat log "this is too laggy blah blah blah w/e here" then logged out and stopped hs stream

    Because like every other topic that gets 60+ threads they want it kept in a central location.
    Talking about bans, and GM judgments and that shit is against the TOS.

    And then the next time the mob demands something, give in again? After all, the precedent would be set that disrupting servers gives you what you demand. So then all the Warriors could threaten to crash a server unless they get an insta-kill attack, then the mages, and so on.

    Correct response is to ban everyone disrupting the servers, its against the TOS they agreed to follow. Swifty can work out his ban with Blizzard just like any else.
