Fishing in Wintergrasp is not against the rules!

Fishing in AV Wintergrasp is not against the rules! Stop spamming to report fishers because of salty feelings towards the honor system. Spam blizzard instead to fix honor gains and make wsg the better honor per hour as it should be.

You might as well be AFK in AV if you’re fishing as far as I’m concerned

You’re horde, so you have my permission to fish all you’d like.

If you’re an ally reading this, get to Drek, chop chop!

Remove bonus honor from people who didnt participate.

No HK’s, no cap, no turn ins, Zero bonus Honor. Thus making AFK botting or anything like it pointless.

If you were there to kill bal/galv or at the very least took back a Bunker/tower someone left behind you get honor.

I don’t understand why people forget that they are playing an MMORPG and not some shooter where a round MUST be won while taking care your K/D & W/L ratio. Take your time and enjoy yourself. People who complain about those who are simply playing within the ruleset blizzard implemented are those who are playing the game for themselves and want you to dumb down your enjoyment just so you can help them achieve their personal selfish goal. “because I want to win” is not an excuse to rush AV. “because I am almost exalted” is not a reason for everyone else to rush AV. “because I want to be done with AV” is not a reason to shove your rush like play style down everyone else’s throat.

It’s not against the rules, anymore than turning a pvp activity like a battleground into a pve event with little or no pvp. Hell, the BfA event AV has more pvp in it. Every one of those I’ve run lately has been chock full of pvp fights. Sort of odd to say that something in retail is working as intended and something in Classic isn’t…

Because there’s no incentive to win or do objectives. There isn’t a ranking system where your honor earned essentially translates to BiS gear.

As such, everyone there is just there for fun. By contrast, in Classic, people doing AV are doing it because it’s the best honor in the game, and they have to earn the most honor on their realm to get the rank required for the gear they want.

Still bm, youre gonna get reported. Just deal with it

No, you’re AFK.

There is a reason why you’re allowed to report players away in bg’s, and that’s becuase people who aren’t contributing to winning the game are in fact AFK.

Do you know what afk means?

I haven’t yet fished in AV, but i really WANT to!

Why have i not?

Because it announces what you get in raid chat.

Shouldn’t a man and his (fishing) pole have a little bit more privacy?

Fishing requires keyboard input. Do you even know what AFK stands for? Also, show me where blizzard said that someone is reportable if found fishing in AV. No, blizzard never said that, you said that, that is your standards and not blizzards. We don’t have to play by YOUR standards.
