Dumb support article says they don't free names now, but I threw in a ticket (with a joke) anyway to see what they say.
Probably took up a lot of man hours so they said fuck it, but really, inactive for 2 whole expacs? If I don't get it whatever, I have something else that can work if I need it to.
In other news, raid team turmoil a-bewing slightly. Mostly it comes down to the time restriction of 6 hours a week and progression vs. farm when there's still important loot (tier) to be had for about 1/3 to 1/2 the raid team from the first 6 bosses. People who have been geared out from the loot council seem to want to focus more on progression, while those lacking gear (like me) are more intent on farming. And with the loot council, it's been sort of a rich get richer situation with people who were awarded tier early got awarded more tier to fill out 4 sets before others even had two-sets, not necessarily following a specific priority that would increase overall raid effectiveness.
So I'm not entirely happy right now. And like I think I mentioned before, it's a Catch-22 in regards to the possibility of leaving the team, since I wouldn't have any upward (or even lateral) mobility without decent logs....which I need gear for at this point.
