Default Can you get banned for this?

Ok, let's say your an officer, and you kick every member in the guild, then leave. Then the leader sens pics of the status to a.net, saying that you kicked everyone. Is this a ban? I'm sure they wouldn't ban someones $100 dollar account for this.

Either that or he wants to report someone that did it. No, it's not a reportable offense, but I know some guilds are promoting everyone to officers just so that doesn't happen.

anyways, Anet bans for lots of random and seemingly innocent reasons, but I believe how people run their guilds is their business, and that is (or should be) off limits from the ban stick.

Sort of like, if you want to call all your real life friends horrible things, your punishment will be living with the consequences.

Sounds like a dickish move but you can't get banned for it.

I've seen this done before by an unscupulous officer. It is difficult for a guild to recover to it's pre-sabataged state. We had to use friends lists and screenshots of the roster to try and get everyone reinvited.

Guild leaders take note... get your sceenshot now.

I hope you aren't thinking of doing this?

Yes, I've heard of them banning someone for this before as it goes against the ROC. You cannot abuse other players or attempt to cause them grief or hardships.

No you wont but I wouldn't do it, you wont get much out of it except a childish laugh over it, then they'll just re-invite everyone. Which means you'll look like a tard and they'll keep on playing.

I suppose it can be categorised as 'griefing' so if you were to send that info to support, they have solid grounds for an account suspension/termination.

If you're guild has about 50 people in it, it would cost about 5k to then re-invite everyone plus a lot of time and inconvenience. That definitely sounds like griefing to me.

that's the risk you run with your officers. however, it's not against the EULA and therefore likely not bannable.

It happened to our guild once and it wasn't funny. If you have a problem with your leader that is between you two only. Only a very immature person would try and hurt all members just to spite the leader. After your post you can be sure that any who sees you in game wouldn't want you for a guild mate.

As said above, probably not a ban, but certainly penile behavior.

Irrelevant. If they feel you've violated RoC, you'll be dealt with accordingly.

Of course, posting this here where your guild are most likely going to see it was a very smart idea.
