Guild Wars 2

I’d humbly ask ANet to reconsider this decision. I’ve recently joined Patone’s guild [ONE] after following him in WvW/EB for over a week purely based on his talent as a Commander and the respectful manner in which he conducts himself. I joined his guild because of his skill in leading a large group and the respectful approach he takes with players following him.

Commanders can often be subject to some harsh criticism from players on the map – combine this with a high pressure situation that can be WvW and incidents will occur.

While I was not witness to the events, I’ve found Patone unfailing polite and patient with players. Indeed, Patone is inspirational and there are many fans of his on the SOS server.

While not taking away from a persons hurt feelings, I’ve been in the guild and have seen enough of Patone’s play style to regard such incidents as completely out of character and more than likely never to happen again.

I respect ANet has a responsibility to protect the entire player base, and ensure community standards. I like to point out that Patone has rapidly created a community around the guild [ONE]. I’ve been playing MMOs for over 10 years, and I can say that his guild approaches this wonderful game maturely and with respect for the developers and players on SOS and other servers.

Thanks for you time ANet.
