I'm not trying to disparage your post but after a little research, I may have found out a few things that reasoned your post.
"the whole basis of this post was cause I remember duels I had with Akfortysevin aka Zalaran and Cirran. (not sure what spurred this memory)."
Found in thread:

Conclusion: This may show that you knew him on a more personal level before, and are backing him up now. If you were on the same realm, possibly the same guild, it would be a shame to call other players not, for lack of better term "good" at twinking just because you knew him on a personal level.
More research has shown that Cirran is a very famous twink.

This shows that Draynor was around this rogue more then some other people in different battlegroups. But hrough all this research we have to say he must have been a great rogue.
Glad to see you coming back, have fun!
