They aren’t going to participation trophy the mount or title out to the whiners.
And yet this is in no way comparable to the by design limited event that is the grind for Scarab Lord.
Still hopping on everyone’s threads trying to rationalize the current behavior I see.
I know this may be hard for you to understand, but asking for Blizzard to enforce their own guidelines doesn’t make them a “whiner.”
You can try to devalue, dismiss, and minimize what is doing but you won’t change the facts of what most of these people are doing is against the CoC.

define the current behavior
anything being done about similar harassment on retail?
That’s not what makes them a whiner, oh-ye-of-little-reading.
This is what makes Koloi, and others, “whiners” because rather than accept that an explicitly time-gated reward is out of reach to 99.999% of the population, his/her solution is to simply make the mount (that’s the bug referenced in the quote), available at any time hereafter if you complete the scepter questline.
Try reading first, then respond emotionally after if you feel the need.
It isn’t. Getting killed by guards who were kited far away from their base, having Horde rampage through your grinding as fellow Alliance /point and /laugh, and all the other gripes aren’t against the code of conduct, no matter how much you demand it be treated as such or emotionally feel like it should be.
You’re getting PvP’d on a PvP server, complete with full use of the local terrain, mobs, and everything in between.
I do love this particular brand of popular conspiracy theory. Rather than rationally look at the problem, notably compared to how Blizzard has maintained a fairly steady response for over a decade and a half, it is just easier to argue that Blizzard has Changed™ and thus any perceived problem is with “New” Blizzard.
- Point out the rules with particularity
- Point out what Blizzard must do with particularity
Hint: If it is a vague “rule” about squishy and undefined oughts, and Blizzard has the final say on whether it warrants punishment or not, then neither 1. nor 2. can be satisfied.

Haven’t you been paying attention? They’ve allowed so much cheating and exploiting since launch that it became a meme, “exploit early and often.”
Are you seriously trying to convince people that the original team would have put up with it?
Good luck with that.
Uh huh. I guess anything goes then. 
Clearly, there is nothing they “must” do, not even fix bugs, ban bots and cheaters, or even take these things seriously, despite making claims to the contrary. So sure, technically they can do (or not do) whatever they want… it isn’t helping the game or their reputation though.
That’s been true since Vanilla launch. Where have you been?
Yes. We weren’t all wide-eyed teenagers 15 years ago.
I’ll take that as acceptance of defeat then.
Game is doing just fine.
Blizzard’s reputation is only really endangered by whiners on their forums. Irony.
There were more rules, more precise ones, and they were enforced not only more often but more harshly, so nah… not the same.
Cute. I’m flattered, but alas, I’m over 30.
Of course you will, as you would have with any response (which is why I didn’t bother getting into detail). Did you really think I’d go scour the rules for “particularity” just because you demanded it? lol, get over yourself.
Because you say so?
Doesn’t look like people are too happy from where I’m sitting.
How dare paying customers speak up about things that they aren’t happy with? Calling people names, doesn’t dismiss their concerns.
Have fun trying to convince someone else of your nonsense.
You seem to be basing your opinion on some notion that we would have acted differently around Burning Crusade/Wrath of the Lich King. We would not. Those policies have been in place for as long as I have been here, which pre-dates Burning Crusade. Stating that we do not have the same standards is a false narrative.
Oh, this part is good:
The fact of the matter is, we actually are far more involved in player behavior than we have ever been and we are working on ways to reduce the level of toxic behaviors in our games.

Oh really?
Do tell!
Well that’s disappointing… you’re a very disillusioned adult.
No, I expected you to have already found such rules to reinforce your ridiculous position, but as you stated, you haven’t even looked. You merely assume such rules may or may not exist. Your entire position is based upon the presumption that some rules, somewhere, exist, that Blizzard (the New, not the Old) no longer follows… at least according to your hunch.
Naw, because people are playing in droves, happily. Even with the War Effort drawing a huge amount of attention, I’ve gotten groups far more quickly even as a DPS on my alts. People are playing and doing content very actively, so yeah.
Also:
EVERYTHING Delimicus just posted. Just all of it.

They can say whatever. Actions (or inaction, as the case may be) speak so much louder than words.
Throw all the insults you want. It doesn’t change anything.
There have always been rules against cheating. Haven’t you ever read the terms before accepting them? Do you really need to see in writing that cheating is wrong?
Are you drunk?
I really can’t figure out if you’re defending cheating, blizzard, or both, but have fun with that.
I’m out.
“I only believe what I want regardless of what anyone else says!”
Well, glad you’re starting out from a position of good faith and not an insane zealot.
We know, you’re disillusioned.
Cheating is determined by Blizzard. Blizzard doesn’t consider a lot of things that players think is cheating to be actual cheating. You’d think you’d understand that by now.
I’m sorry about your education?
Your slow reaction and misplaced targeting is embarassing Blizzard. Please work out more.
by denying you make worse. Going full agenda andy does not help any one.
Here what you say. The goal is to open the door and its a sacrifice that need to be done in order to unlock content.
GG no re
I literally have no idea what you’re saying.
So it would be ok to simply park opposite faction alts there in spirit form to do the same thing?
Because mass reporting a scarab lord on the other faction is trying to unlock the gates asap. That should be obvious as an attempt to keep someone else from getting it.
“There is no or very limited pvp-solution to lv. 10 alts throwing world-boss fights.”
Pay guilds on other faction to guard the boss fight just like they pay them to kill members of their own faction in Silithis.

Hi Kaivax, I am wondering what the pvp solution is to member of alliance mind controlling and healing horde characters. What is the pvp solution to a horde characters mind controlling an alliance from stealth with a mind control cap or mind control and having 20 alliance kill them? I wonder what the pvp solution is to stop your own faction from killing you.
