ACU bullying the forum yet again
https://eu.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/high-elf-guild/315474
Hey CoAD, could you maybe cover this? It's really grating that they decided to jump on this innocent looking for guild thread for no apparent reason and derailed it to the point where no constructive discussion could take place anymore. This is what new players on AD have to deal with whenever they post there, even for the most petty of reasons.

Answer from the CoAD Team:
the ACU/PCU will jump onto any bandwagon they think they can drum up passive support for one of their decaying guilds. As it has been mentioned here before the ACU posters are like a swarm on the official forums, drowning everything that isn't approved by their higher ups, pushing down topics that advertise for non-ACU guilds and derailing legitimate conversation where they can (just look at the recent trans rights thread that was deleted by their report brigade tactically bombing posters!).
In the case of High Elves, as it is has been a high traction, finger trigger topic for some time they will obviously wade into the discussion, usually rolling out the talking heads such as Teyha/Tehyani/Dorn to just nonsense post over the discussion with "hot takes" to add to their 8000+ post counter, derailing the conversation onto things that they want to talk about rather than what a significant number of other elf players are trying to discuss.
In addition to this, they and the likes of Elyrius encourage other players posting adversarial posts like the sort from Coldshade in order to degrade the over all civility of the topic until all reasonable posters feel its time to jump out, then proceed to trash the place until the moderators lock or delete the thread (as what happened in the trans rights thread.)
As the ACU has no High Elf guild of their own - they do have Highblood Myrmidons for Blood Elves (Oh look that's Elyrius' guild) there is definitely an element of trying to snuff out the competition before it can even get off the ground.
But, Dear Readers, we have had multiple cases of the ACU sabotaging guilds either from within or externally as you have all seen recently.
