Hoy,
Right. First off, lose the quotes. As an active member of the Haven guild and of the larger THN community, you're entitled to have an opinion and you're entitled to air it.
Unless it really
isn't "your" opinion, in which case, bleh!
I think Stelios should be allowed to be a Trail Raider to prove to us that he is Mature enough and has the skill to do Guild Raids.
We agree. That's why he was. But, alas, it didn't work out at all. That's why he was demoted back to Community. While everyone deserves a second chance, we just happen to feel that the timing isn't right for it.
i have raided with him a few times and have seen no problems at all
Two things:
1) Congratulations. That's more than we were able to do while he was Trial Raider, despite several attempts to do so.
2) That said, this is the sort of vouch that we value, coming from a well-known member of the THN community and someone who I personally respect. It would have been nice to have had it
before a decision was rendered, but, all things considered, I doubt we would have reached a different conclusion.
However:
This sucks, [...] just give him and others a chance you need new blood
Much as I do respect you and consider you a friend, and trust me, I do, the fact is that you're a non-guildie, and as such, have absolutely
zero say on the make-up of the guild.
Fellows, I'm sure Stelios appreciates the support. I have to tell you, I do to. It's preciously rare to have people disagree with us, and yet be ready to post about it in a decent, respectful manner, which you did.
Thanks for that.
Cheers,
J.
