Good.
That sums that up.
Cheers.
Like I have said before this falls into a grey area and sooner or later BlizZard might change their mind.
Treason: the crime of betraying a nation or a sovereign by acts considered dangerous to security.
The reason why bans go out on high profile accounts is because they’re making the game unplayable in reference to the conventions Blizzard intends for its playerbase.
They make rules, and they dislike it when players break them. If you don’t want to get banned, don’t break the rules.
Obviously there are some rules, when broken, which are more egregious offenses than others – even so, it ultimately comes down to this idea of self-regulation.
I don’t have to cheat, because my desire to win and/or be successful at a video game is an impulse that I can control; in a world where there are many other players who are driven entirely by greed after this fashion.
Their authentic selves become veiled, and they lose all sense of self-conception. They are lost in a hell of their own design; and by their actions, we become lost with them. The best I can do, from my perspective, is try to help them to recenter, and to better understand that happiness and success in a video game aren’t necessarily congruent concepts.
Furthermore, that their actions affect (negatively) the other players around them, until what we end up with is a game that is inherently unfun; which is why the game’s developers police player behavior, and politely encourage them not to break the rules.
We’re just trying to keep the game fun for everyone; and it should be understood that everyone’s interests are included in the calculations we make when we’re in the business of writing the rulebook, even if it doesn’t seem that way from particular perspectives.
Those perspectives tend to lack important considerations which others have made. And so those are the people that we allow to write the rulebook (in a perfect world).
Which is possible, by the way. It really is. It just requires people to take a few steps back and understand the light that there is to be found, and which exists – even in the darkest of spaces.

^ That’s the difference between productive and unproductive players.
We’re all trying to progress towards some manner of goal, and I think it helps if that goal is socially, rather than anti-socially, constructed.
Because I think we can spend a lot of time, otherwise, completing counter-productive tasks which ultimately serve noone.

DanishDadGamer on youtube just came out with episode 1, investigating the mass cheating in wow PvP that going on.
End of his video he shows proof, and calls out the cheaters, they all mass report him and he is punished by the automated system. The wow we live in today, the rampant cheaters are allowed to make money off and ruin pvp for the player base, and if you raise a fuss YOU will get punitive actions against you.

Maybe it depends on the fuss you make, and ultimately how its made.
They’re doing a lot of tuning, there’s really only so much that’s actually in our control as players.
Just do your best. 
Nobody could ever ask any more than that; including yourself. Even when you lose a battleground, if you tried your best? That was still a win.
Losing has a valor all it’s own that only the most honorable learn to respect.

Typical defensive response. Truth hurts. If its about fun for the community, then have your time together in pve, where your so called “fun” isnt ruining the “fun” of the rest of wow’s community

SPM premades AV cause we need extra materials for our black magic late night gy rituals, and there’s only one place we can get them.
That is the only reason
But that’s the result when you premade raid in random bgs.
You may argue you’re not there to “stomp pugs”, but you know your premade raids will be rolling over pugs frequently. It’s not fair to the pugs. Premade raids ruin the bracket for everyone else and they drive people away from PvP.
Blizzard has asked premade raiders to play in the brackets meant for premade raids (i.e. rated bgs and war games).
All of you know full well premade raids are ruining epic bgs for everyone else and you’re driving players away from PvP, yet you keep doing it anyways.
The game does not allow raids to queue for random bgs.
Premade raiders circumvent in-game restrictions to get their premade raids into random bgs. They gain a significant advantage over other teams.
Pugs are the ones who are actually paying the price. Instead of a fair/fun game, they get a rigged matchup where they’ll be roflstomped.
Are these black magic late night gy rituals full of ill intentions or good will?

ALL this is because Blizzard does not enforce their rules, they let bad actors do whatever they want with no pushback…
Players need to just stop their sub, dont give Blizzard a penny, if players did, it would not take long for men in suits to be told to pack their desk.

Yeah blizzard doesn’t give a flying f about u. It’s gonna be 20 years of crying about premades for u next week also.
Hahahahahahaha
Its true… The only player base more loyal than WoW is Call of Doodie, now COD players will literally buy anything, even a cow pie on a paper plate, they would even ask for seconds lol.
I think the best player base in all of gaming was helldivers2, over night the entire player base gave arrowhead the one finger salute, forced SONY to temporarily back down, and even Steam to start giving refunds. All that was because of Hostile anti gamer Devs, that kept nerfing the fun weapons while at the same time pushing their wacky ideology.

You can say whatever you want. But tonight we’re gonna “3,2,1…que!” With like 60 people:

Nothing

Sounds pretty cringe.
There is a reason there is a massive gap between non premaders like me and people who do premade in ability to play the game and what they’ve accomplished.
