SilentAssassin: Why do we get banned for using it?

It should be fixed as fast as possible, but as long as it excist i dont see why it shouldnt be used - The ladder is frozen you know.

May be this is one of benefits of taking control one of capitals and they didn't announce about it before

It doesn't work with HA - you get a message saying "Party is too large."
You do not have to all be Guild Members, but you must all have the privilege to travel to the Guild Hall of choice.

It only works in for GvGs.

Yes there will be many bans... :P Just as when people abused Doppleganger's XP

Griev · May 28, 2006, 03:15 PM // 15:15

To the guy with all the screenshots, black out the names or remove the shots.

The ladder was frozen anyways, and nobody was hurt. SCC was very cool even after we wasted their time with all that. :P

A SCC member whispered me mid-match to ask what colour I dyed my armor.

No real point to that, lots of people saw the match. Additionally there are pics on the thread in guild-hall. Plus the two guilds aren't complaining :P

I'm in one of them and I'm complaining. Remove the shots or black them out.

Posting the names of other players characters without their consent is against the Guild Wars Guru rules, be that in a screenshot or just in a post.

So don't.

Because it si clearly bug exploit and that is strictly forbidden by A.net rules.
The ladder is frozen but you still gain Balthazar points for killing others in GvG. So it is a easy way to gain Baltha.

Last time players abuse an exploit bug (the doppleganger's fight which gave 50 000 xp each time you won it) they were banned.

Anyone trying to play GvG matches legit was hurt. I don't care if the ladder is frozen, it is still a bug being abused that affects other people. The reason why people are not afraid to use it is because they don't think they will be banned. Anet needs to step up and ban people so that next time a major bug arises people will think twice about abusing it for fear of repercussions.

Have you heard nothing that Griev and others have said? No one who has come against this is complaining. How many people on this forum post who are complaining have said that they came across these teams and it ruined their gameplay experience. There are exploits all over this game (especially in PvE) that Anet either cannot fix, doesnt care about, or has fixed. Take for example 55 monking. I seriously doubt any of the people at Guild Wars thought somebody would come up and abuse superior runes with prot spirit and heal breeze. So, do you want anet to ban everyone who has used a 55 monk? cuz 55 monks screw up the economy. and how about the book trick in FoW? I guarantee you most of the groups that got to the armor crafter there used the book trick, and look how long it was until it was fixed. You want anet to ban people for being able to easily get to him over others that have a hard time doing it? My point is that in this game and in so many others exploits happen, and they happen because people use them. All the people (including some of my fellow guildies that did it) WON'T be banned because #1) its an inherent affect that can be easily remedied with an update....#2) no one except people who saw it are complaining....#3)people who used it notified ANET about it....and #4) The ladder is frozen so it doesnt impact any competitive play. People can run 8 wammos in gvg during closed ladder session and lose over and over again, but no one cares cuz the ladder is closed. No one is trying to gain an advantage in competitive play. The times that people abused the doppleganger exploit was when they didnt report it and kept doing it over and over again cuz they knew as long as ANET didnt know about it they could get away with it. How would you like it if someone found out about this during the ladder season and guilds were keeping it to themselves, or doing 9v8 so as to make it not so obvious. They arent!!! so just sit back, wait for the update and dont worry about it.

You're in the dark if you think that was the last bug that has been exploited. There have been bugs in GvG that people have abused since discovery, such as glitching through gates (considered a noob if you didn't do this), closing doors just before VoD so they remain closed indefinitely (mixed feelings about this, it was clearly game breaking if you closed both doors), and even the thunderclap bug where it didn't end at 0 energy (more of a joke, but people used it in the middle of a tournament ladder season). No one was banned for any of this that I know of.

Clearly, using more than 8 people in GvG is pretty ridiculous, but while the ladder is frozen I can see it as just funny.

Well, you really shouldn't be telling other people what they have come up against and what THEIR game play experience have been. 3 of the 5 GvG matches I played last night were 12v8. To say the least I was displeased.

The 55 monk is in no way an exploit, imo is isn't even a game design flaw. It is simply a way that a character can solo some areas of the game.

Everything opinionated in you post I 100% disagree with.

Clusmas · May 29, 2006, 03:34 AM // 03:34

I don't get what the big deal is...

It's a bug. It may or may not be fixed. By the nature of this particular bug it's safe to assume it will be fixed. End of story.

This thread should be moved to The Riverside Inn, or better GWO.
