Nope hes right, Astien booted me when I was about 24st rank for summoning a troll in the spire. At the time I had seen others do so, but I got busted. His house his rules I suppose. He did grill me about getting back in and pounced on me the first mistake I made. It took me a while to figure out the gist of what Astien want from Magistrates, so I used his "lessons" and RP'd them as well as I could and incorporated them into my role. In the end I felt it made me a better trib although I did make a few stupid mistakes. Live and learn I guess. My mistakes were never malicious just one lack of understanding and the other sloppiness by not checkin a persons rank before laying a flag.
I don't claim to have been the best trib ever, but at least I was always honest to a fault.
