Guard on duty during DoT
Seems to have been an issue today where a Guard on duty was same location of their level bracket DoT. Not sure if they were attacked or not but that Guard did announce they were on duty. I would suggest that in future, during a DoT that if a guard on duty is also in that level bracket then they NOT sit at that location.
Cant speak for every one, but i know when i do DoT, i very rarely check who or clan, I normally just peruse lvl's & hit any thing in my bracket. So to me it would seem more practical for 1 player(Guard) to spend there time in a different location then rest of that level bracket having to always check who/what when participating in DoT. The Guard can obviously still perform their duties & help other players w/out the disruption of mistaken jumps. Also, as Guards can & do participate in DoT when not on duty, there is also situation where players are either in clan or raid chat during DoT & may honestly not be aware that Guard is on duty.
Just seems a simple thing really, to move 1 square whilst DoT on rather then have a heap of issues arise because of honest mistakes.

Actually Truck, not quite. The Guardian was in the same level range of the DoT area that they were in, therefore, they were an open target. BUT as an on duty Guardian, why would they be in that area in the first place, knowing they were in the level range and could very easily be attacked? That's my question.
To my knowledge no one was shackled for this, but the topic was brought up because the guardian, on duty at the time made such a point of stating they were on duty and not to attack them, while being the zone of confrontation.
Yes, the guardian made a mistake in being there, and has taken full responsability in case any damage would have come of it, to his shift or to his ego/armor.
