Alright, so at school today i was thinking about a build and thunderclap came up. (I wont go any further then that, I still think my idea is awsome and I dont want my haxxor ideaz to get spread). I came home and was talking about my build to my guild and they told me about this Thunderclap bug(thunderclap knocks down target when hit with light damage but you lose around 7 energy, well if you have 0 energy you can keep hitting them and it doesnt end). I was completely dissapointed, I'm completely against bugs and so is my guild and I would never use them. I want to use my thunderclap build but I hear arenanet has been swinging the zealots nerfbat of account slaying, and I dont want my account to be banned for something thats completely legitimate. Although I would normally say "just whatever, dont do the bug" its completely unfair I'm not able to use thunderclap because of a bug that isnt even my fault. And I'm sure that when I use it everyone and their mother will be screaming OMG NOOB U SUXXOR USE BUGS ALL U D0 IS PLAY TEH IWAY and ill get 8 bug reports for every team that I beat.

What do you think I should do? I think I could single handedly build a team around thunderclap(please dont tell me counters, builds, ect), but should I continue it or stop? Is there a way maybe I couldnt get banned or reported or something?

I _think_ I understand what you are saying... I think...

I wouldn't worry about being banned for this.

Do what you want, expect the bug to be fixed and plan accordingly.

It's ethical to make the build you want, just not ethical to exploit the bug.

You won't get banned for it, as Anet would probably have to ban a lot of PvP people right now. As MSecorsky said, don't expect the bug to hang around forever.

As for reporting it, people already are. They're having a heated debate about it over on the Sardelac Sanitarium, I'm sure you could join them:
