Whatever happened to "Clever use of game Mechanics"?

If Rextroy truly got banned for the Vectis 1 shot kill, well Blizz you're going against your own rules.

"Clever use of game mechanics" used to be an easy way to defend things like this. I'm willing to bet the issue with the guards in Fort Daelin spamming the shout, or the Monkey that follows you forever and that the guards can't kill has been fixed. It was never a bug, but an oversight on the Dev team's part.

You can't ban someone for your own lack of polish. This expansion is notoriously buggy, the term "Beta for Azeroth" isn't just a joke. Almost everything that you have released this expansion has been buggy in one way or another.

So banning someone who took advantage of said issues and bugs, and doesn't do it for their own self gain, but actually for fun, and uploads it for you to fix. Well, that's simply being quite toxic if I'm honest.

This is "clever use of game mechanics" He's not doing anything that someone else can't do. Maybe if you made the guards able to actually kill mobs then it never would have happened in the first place. But in this beta in it's current state, Guards, at least the ones in Fort Daelin can't kill any mob.

Fix your own game before you ban someone for showing you your own issues and forcing you to fix them.
