I suggest you read the complaints page _again_
I quote:
<quote>
The job of the Titans is to combat /abuses and cheating/. They are /not/ 
for general support, bug reports, questions, etc. Please use the 
bugtracker for bug reports and the mailing lists for questions.

The part about mailing list is questions about the _game_, general 
support, bug reports etc

There is no elite group afaik. I have never seen one in my 3 years of 
playing. A good player, imo, is anyone who _plays_ the game and makes if 
fun for others.
I am not saying Darfix is not a good player. I am saying is that there 
is no elite group. Additionally, Tom has stated many times, the wiki 
states it for a long time, _any_ complaints, queries regarding the 
Titans should be addressed to either the Titan mailing list or to Tom 
himself.

The Titans have tools which they can use. They will not hand out any 
punishment lightly (I don't know what punishment Darfix received) and 
would have given it with some thought and merit. Darfix really should 
not have brought this issue to the discussion list be should have mailed 
the Titans list.
