Maintenance for the week of March 9:
• [COMPLETE] ESO Store and Account System for maintenance – March 11, 9:00AM EDT (13:00 UTC) - 1:00PM EDT (17:00 UTC)
I think the guild leader got spooked by it and pulled all them off from spamming as I haven't seen any of them. He mentioned something in his discord about dealing with some serious guild issues. So he probably got flamed by support about it or something.
As for why we haven't heard anything? Idk, Kevin was supposed to say something on the thread 24 hours after it got locked but I guess they're still doing things behind closed doors for now.
My assumption was that ZOS wanted to reach out to the GM to reach an amicable resolution that benefits all parties. Though the guild has a bad rep, it's also central to how a lot of people enjoy ESO.
