Apparently someone has been harassing my guild mate regularly past few days, just saw the thread where she was apologizing (for something not her fault!) and making overtures for peace. I've been sick and missed all this drama :(. Still don't understand why she apologized for hitting once when there was farming in retaliation, but oh well. Got really tempted to post a reply in that thread but I don't want to cause problems if she wants to settle the issue, so I'm just venting on my own blog instead.

The excuse seems to be, your strong guild mate hit me once and I lost, so I decided to farm you. Which is interesting because, afaik our guild wasn't even asked for any help in retaliation - so either it was a one-off counter attack or just coincidental farming.

This has drastically changed my viewpoint on collective punishment - earlier I viewed entire guild going after someone as a childish behavior and wouldn't have thought to either ask or wholeheartedly support harassing an individual. But with idiots who like to bully X because of Y, maybe I will actively hit anyone who bullies a guild mate in future, daily if need be. And yes, I'd lose often because I am a small fish xD, but I don't care lol - and they are welcome to waste AS on 'punishing' me to get a handful of silver coins, it would be quite amusing. I need to get rid of my own mindset to avoid confrontation ...
