I'm a member of BG, and have been for a little under 6 months now , and to be honest I've found them friendly and helpful (Hell, I'm even dating one of them IRL now, so they can't be that bad) . Sure, theres good natured ribbing and heckling in the shell, which was a little intimidating at first, but its a great shell and once I got up the confidence to talk to the members more, I found them really helpful, not just in giving advice on elements of the game that were new to me, but also practical help in camping NM's and inviting me along to events that were new to me .
I don't know anything about the Hagun thing - that was probably before my time, but to be honest, no one except Barik and the person landing the Hagun know the full story . Clearly one of thems lying, and as I said, it was before my time, so I'm not qualified to judge. Seems harsh to judge a whole LS by the actions of one person though . Looks like Aqaia's offering up a sensible solution, although its perhaps a little unfair that she feels she needs to make up for someone elses mistake :)
