NOTE: Any attempt to alter your OP in a way so as to bring the argument in your favor, notably because you contradicted yourself in one crucial area, will be disputed with desktop video footage I have of your OP if need be made public. It would probably be in your best interest to delete this post you made before our Guild begins to look bad, granted you actually are the Leader of BoBd, and not an imposter.
As a fellow [BoBd] member (I choose to remain anonymous for reasons), you cannot be serious, Bob. There was a Guild meeting regarding Valdrimari's return to [BoBd], which in turn got voted down because of you, the Guild Leader, who was a big influence on the vote. Furthermore, there are [BoBd] members (myself included) who do stand by Val, and who did want Val back into the Guild.
Not only that, Val was kicked from [BoBd] because you (and a couple Officers) did not like Val's threat to disrupt/shut down gw2mb, and for no other reason. His threat was not against [BoBd] members at all. In fact, Val (in the video he provided) defended the members of [BoBd], and I will be sure to add this tidbit of info in my thread.
Furthermore, the only drama that really took place, unrelated to [BoBd], started here on gw2mb between Val, gw2mb user The Ben Efits, and the founder of gw2mb, proteininja. The only reason Val brought anything gw2mb-related into our Guild's Chat is because he was pissed off and venting out to us, and two days later explained he did not mean what he said after his threat against gw2mb.
How can you blame him? If the founder of gw2mb chose a person's behavior like The Ben Efits (who by the way, is a former [BoBd] member of ours by the in-game name Micky Mouse [with an accented e], who also got kicked from the Guild for a separate set of reasons some time ago) over you (if you were Val) who contributed over 200 pieces of music for the GW2 community, you would be ticked off, too.

"FIRST: Our guild has no problem with macro players in the slightest, and I do not believe we have ever once used one of Vald's macros, nor did we rely on them in any sense of the word. We enjoy playing music with people whether it be a macro or not. On top of that macros are a very good teaching tool, and we have an amazing programmer working on making a converter so it is easy to view them in our format and therefore play them by hand."
You just shot yourself in the foot... How can you consider yourself one of us in [BoBd] after saying that? You say our Guild is a lover of music, macroed, or not, and then turn around and say the syntax to create a macro (notably Val's syntax) is not being used for learning purposes. The above underlined within the above quoted from you is a huge contradiction, that and it is slightly hypocritical, because that programmer you speak of goes by the name Thrassak in-game (who is also a [BoBd] member and a [MGT] member), and so yes, Valdrimari's macros/syntax IS being used in [BoBd] in some way, shape, or form, as a learning tool! You said it yourself.
The only thing you were right about is when I mispoke about us [BoBd] being against macros in my announcement on the gw2mb Archives. I got [MGT] mixed up with us (I am a member of [MGT], too), and I will be changing my gw2mb announcement on the Archives to reflect what [BoBd] truly stands for regarding macros.
Cheers.
