3 summers ago when rage and i held the STVBB as we always do, a member of a certain guild showed up-- a guild which had been accused of being both run by 2 nazis, and of hiding sneaky fascist imagery & ideology in their RP concepts
the evidence included guild ads that were more than the typical belf nationalist talk, black suns and broken sun crosses in their guild graphics, and one of the GM's deviantart posts railing against "miscegenation" (interracial families)
CW: RACISM/ANTI-SEMITISM/NAZI IMAGERY
the two accused GMs, Nazarah and Myrostian, both defended themselves publicly by way of mocking people who criticized them, calling their accusers bigots ("who's the REAL nazi here" etc), and claiming they refused to judge rpers based on "ooc political affiliations"
despite the pretty... clear-cut evidence (AT LEAST I FUCKING THOUGHT IT WAS), some folks refused to see the obvious and still gave them and their guild the benefit of the doubt, but my friends and i certainly had no intention of doing so. which brings us back to the STVBB
we approached the person in the guild who attended the Bash, who is Centari, a blood elf paladin, and first publicly asked them to leave. they seemed shocked, so we took them aside and joined party to explain ourselves more privately. we asked if they were aware of the accusation
-against their guild leaders, and they said yes, but that it shouldn't matter because they were just a guild member and not either of the accused GMs. we argued that being part of a guild that's been accused of nazism is being complicit and that we had a duty to our event goers.
a duty, that is, to protect them and ensure a safe environment free of OBVIOUS NAZIS
they disclosed that they're IRL a Black person and that we were being more like nazis for asking them to leave, which was baffling because i'd never met Centari or heard of them and in no way could have known their IRL ethnicity, but it's worth mentioning because it derailed us
they and their GMs had also used their non-white members like Centari to claim innocence against claims of racism/islamophobia, but we maintained that regardless of how diverse the guild may or may have been, it still sported swastikas and posted about the evils of race-mixing??
hopefully this is in the right order now but, here's the party chat conversation from that night 3 summers ago
yeah that's the right order now lmao okay good
anyway, i got a lot of harassment from friends of the guild and of Centari specifically who claimed they'd been kicked from their raiding guild because of us, that they'd been receiving hateful messages (which i believe because ppl can't fucking control themselves i guess)
i stated several times that i didn't believe Centari themselves was a nazi, but they'd decided to remain in a guild that had been accused (with evidence) of supporting nazism and promoting pretty heinous racism/anti-semitism, and in the chat even said their GMs weren't nazis
what happened next: not much changed until a callout blog received a submission that appeared to be of House Rosedawn GMs, Nazarah and Myrostian, in screenshotted chats admitting they were trying to create a united nazi presence on WrA, using racist and anti-semitic slurs
it wasn't until i read thru the screenshots carefully that i realized the unknown party in the chats was a notorious shithead nazi himself, Hellsoul (Ni, Xi, etc) who had used his own disgusting racism to out Rosedawn's GMs. i notified the callout blog's mod and they removed it
Hellsoul giggled and claimed he had successfully proven that the pair were nazis, but the thing is, anyone with a brain already knew, and all he did was give me lots of great examples of how *he* is a nazi worm beyond redemption and utterly, completely irrelevant to anyone
anyway, fast forward to last week! Hellsoul was spotted at an elf discord run server event and his presence & history was brought to the organizer's attention, where it was summarily ignored by the organizer! the discord is the Thalassian Elves Network https://imgur.com/a/O2XHRTM 
the imgur gallery courtesy of @/kirintorfanboy who was super helpful and again i extend my thanks, it takes guts to approach mods/organizers with this kind of thing and to be ignored was unfair AND irresponsible
who do i see in the replies, accusing the OP of being a bully and defending Hellsoul's reputation? why none other than Centari! perhaps unintentionally mentioning the fact that Hellsoul shared screenshots of Cent's former GMs using the n-word and calling Jews 'k*kes!'
CW: ANTI-SEMITISM, RACISM, SLURS

once again, the white bubbles on the left and landzer on the right are Nazarah and Myrostian, Centari's old GMs who he SWORE directly to me and my friends were NOT nazis
now, i've had Centari on ignore in WoW for some time and was content to just let them be, even tho i saw them continue to RP and form guilds in public like nothing happened, like they didn't willingly join a nazi guild and cause a LOT of stress at the STVBB 3 summers ago
i still don't even think they're a nazi i just think they're an asshole at this point! no apology, not once acknowledging they messed up and were wrong about House Rosedawn, AND coming to the defense of a known nazi because someone DARED to speak up about it
so yeah, there's my story. until Centari is willing to apologize for their behavior, i guess i don't have the patience/forgiveness anymore to pretend i'm not very irritated by it. there's too much going on in the world RN to not be VERY serious about shutting nazis out.
