Yeah, it gets better. (Or maybe I just figured it out.) Apparently these people were repeatedly killing guildmates or other willing lackeys just to raise their scores and guild experience.
Player A exiles through the quest
Co-conspirator Player B stays affiliated with Freeport
Player A Kills player B 100 times with player B's consent
Player A and his/her guild gets tons of experience.
They didn't ban everyone who did it, just the worst offenders. If you weren't taking advantage to exhorbitantly pad your score, then you probably weren't banned. The stupidest thing about the whole farce is the guilty parties thought no one would notice. lol
They only banned/deleted the characters on the PvP servers, BTW, not entire accounts.
