I agree that there were quite many Jomsvikings breaking the rules, but as far as I remember, we boycotted only 1 SWE since I joined the clan in September/October 2014. We did it because we got massively kicked on the previous SWE, often without a valid reason. What's more, I was the only Jomsvking no to join the boycott and I told Ragnarr that admins did very good job then, so Jomsvkings returned to SWE the next month. And yes, some of us got kicked after that accident, but this was occasional and in large majority reasonable, hence we were not angry at admins because of that. In fact, Ragnarr often punished those who got kicked/banned during SWE, even with a kick (in case of Oddr).

Dead is a rather relative term it seems, observations being the basis of science, but not something to base accusations on. Then again anything seems dead compared to the hordes of Jomsvikings, to whom the idea of a clan was to clanstack,

I disagree. I would never call Fyrningas dead, for example.
Maybe you think that for  me, it is necessary to have 'hordes' of players to call yourself an active clan. If so, you are wrong. For me, even a clan that consists of 3 people can be easily called active, as long as these 3 guys attend Hildileikr from time to time and do their best to join events.

Fact is: Jomsborg members had the highest kick/ban rate in the Shieldwall events

Provided that Jomsvikings often made 50% of SWE attendants, I don't find it any wierd.
If we are the largest group attending an event, it is quite obvious that we will also have the biggest number of kicked people.

Next time you're not trying to insult people, read your text before posting it, but based on later posts, it's hard to imagine your intentions were/are innocent.

I do realize that, if Deorlaf/anyone else here does not believe me, I guess I cannot do anything about it.

You can go on living in your bubble of ignorance and saying people have mental disorders, but the Jomsborg were a big part of what happened to Vikingr.

I have never called someone mentally ill before, maybe excluding the times when I was a silly 10 year old boy, so 'saying people have mental disorders' is not an appriopriate expression here. And also note I did not tell that I'm sure - maybe Theodric is simply trolling by saying such absurd things.

Osredingas? You mean this clan that broke off Jomsborg and died a few weeks after?

I don't know if you meant this as a bad pun or as a cheeky insult (I'll assume the latter) but nonetheless you have proven yourself to be someone of ill repute. You falsely imply that I took a bunch of members from Jomsborg with the "broke off jomsborg" statement, when in actuality it was just me and one friend who I personally invited. I also never intended to stay with Jomsborg as I wanted to do an Anglo-Saxon group before even meeting Ragnar. Now let us move on to the "died a few weeks after" part of your statement. I went to several events with and without my mates (I'm not going to force them to come if they can't or don't want to) and helped organized the Val de Saire event which took place 4-5 Months after Osredingas was formed. The straw that broke the camel's back in our case is when Joub stopped hosting his monthly events, since that was essentially the only thing we went to. We did hang around the Vikingr TS in case anyone wanted to do the random "get on and play" thing but not many people used it anymore, hence why Thorkell had to take it down.
