-Toot Police began life as a group of friends within a gaming community that Bennish (then using the cringeworthy tag "Combatter"... //shudders//) belonged to called "The Conclave" There was a group within it and they called themselves "The [[https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=woot|Woot]] Police" but they were mainly a bunch of arrogant and toxic pricks.  He set up a "rival" group as a piss take and called it "The Toot Police".+Toot Police began life as a group of friends within a gaming community that Bennish (then using the cringeworthy tag "Combatter"... //shudders//) belonged to called "The Conclave" There was a group within it and they called themselves "The [[https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=woot|Woot]] Police" and they were //mainly// a bunch of arrogant and toxic pricks.  He set up a "rival" group of friends in Conclave as a piss take and called it "The Toot Police".

 When Guild Wars 2 was released, [TooT] set up there but a bug in the game meant that the original guild had to be abandoned and a new one created without the "The" in the name, i.e. just "Toot Police [TooT]" When Guild Wars 2 was released, [TooT] set up there but a bug in the game meant that the original guild had to be abandoned and a new one created without the "The" in the name, i.e. just "Toot Police [TooT]"
  
-Upon the release of the "Heart of Thorns" expansion, [TooT] didn't have enough active members to claim a Guild Hall and Bennish, disheartened and suffering with mental health issues at the time, decided to let the guild become inactive and joined another guild.  Around October 2019, Bennish decided that he was fed up with the politics of the other guild and was unimpressed with the poor leadership, and so, with the help of Kyala, resurrected [TooT], set up a Discord server, and recruited new members.  A guild hall was soon obtained and the guild grew rapidly.+Upon the release of the "Heart of Thorns" expansion, [TooT] didn't have enough active members to claim a Guild Hall and Bennish, disheartened and suffering with mental health issues, decided to let the guild become inactive and joined another guild.  Around October 2019, Bennish decided that he was fed up with the politics of the other guild and was unimpressed with the poor leadership, and so, with the help of Kyala, resurrected [TooT], set up a Discord server, and recruited new members.  A guild hall was soon obtained and the guild grew rapidly.
