Holders of this badge were present for the "mysterious" phantom guild disband of 2008. If you were a member of the guild, who logged in only to find that you were unguilded, and in fact that the entire guild had been disbanded, you hold this badge. You joined up in the temporary guild of 'Buh Sold Our Souls' while we tried to figure out what happened. At first it seemed that a hacker had taken the guildmaster Buh's account, and raped the guild bank, and then disbanded the guild. This was unheard of of course in hacker circles. We reformed the guild under it's original name, and then a few days later all the items of the guild bank were returned to Buh through his account. Because when you disband a guild, the contents of a guild bank get mailed to you personally in game a day or two later.

Nothing had been taken from his account, no gear was taken, his personal bank was left alone, and no money was taken. The only thing that we can discern happend was that the guild disbanded.

There are theories as to what exactly happened, but we'll never truly know I guess.

If you were there, post your stories and get your badge.

Oh yeah, I was part of that

I remember logging on alts to ensure we had enough bodies to put together the temporary interim guild so we could actually talk to one another, and the panicked tells I got as soon as I logged on for what I had expected to be a sleepy weekend morning.

Also the Farstriders forum drama involving accusations of what happened and rebuffs from screamingly obvious sockpuppets. :)

Ugh

Thanks for dredging up that whole nasty thread. I did get a laugh out of a post I apparently made there, on an alt.

 

Best quote of the entire thread:

"Cullie is that new friend that seems cool at first, then after a while you realize that it isn't the dog that's been crapping in your shoes lately."

i remember..

I like the last few posts. Stor asks everyone just let the subject die and they all agree and the last post is

"Wow. He really is an evil mastermind. He even can get trolls to stop."

Oh boy

I'm not quite sure if I'd be eligible for this badge or not. >_> <_<

Sure

Though i still say you were drunk and mucking around with the guild controls and disbanded the guild on accident and you were just mortified because of it and never admited it. That's my vote.

good thing my accoutn is

I doubt I could get my authenticator going long enough to log in anyways.

Definitely remember

logging in, being swooped up by Tranq and wondering what the hell was going on. Madly scrambling to assemble folks in Org to sign the charter for Natural Order. Sev showed up on Mooshat and I remember being mesmerized by all that shiny tier 5/6 gear he was decked out in, and the talbuk he rode in on.

And I remember Buh's mailbox being flooded with the contents of the gbank and how long it took to dump all that stuff back into the bank.

All things considered it went

All things considered it went pretty smoothly. Ya, it was a bizarre day, but by the next day we were almost back to business as normal.

You all

seriously

This is both (a) hilarious and (b) horrifying. That much drama has me reaching for the xanax, and I wasn't even there.

 

The only way to exorcise these demons is to kill the lich king...and then let tal ninja all the loot. As the Book of Bulworth (chapter 42:23) says "When thy blood betrays thee, only the tears of 24 can redeemth".

SO SAYETH THE LORD BULWORTH.

 

so be it

Oh man, yeah I remember that
