I don’t know if that is the exact comparison I would make here since they told blizzard so long ago.
What if it isn’t an atm, but your own checking account and you notice an extra $200 in there. You wisely don’t spend it and actually tell the bank you notice extra money, they leave it in your account for three months now what?
The exploit was purposely used to beat a boss they were struggling with.
The guild leadership decided to stop streaming while using this exploit.
There are detailed breakdowns of the exploit on youtube. The exploit required the mage to completely redo their UI and not ever target the boss. Even a casual like me can see how much of an exploit it is.
Can you link the video?
This is not even close to what they did.
They found the exploit. They helped their mage redo their UI to take advantage. The mage never even targeted the boss, how big of a red flag is that?
And then to stop streaming to hide it.
That’s not quite right, they actually kept streaming but Max no longer used firedup as his point of view as he had been for hours which made people suspicious.
But then firedup himself kept streaming so people could see it which is how it got brought up.
It was handled poorly by the team and that makes it look much much more like they knew it was wrong.
Won’t link but it is the RWF recap by Dratnos on Youtube.
They knew it was wrong but desperate times lol.
Hopefully this being the last one after Microsoft stops Blizzard from supporting unsanctioned events. Blizz pays their staff over time to support this. Meanwhile basic bugs in the game the majority plays go unfixed.
What a joke.
Yes! They need to either make it a real event or stop with all these private contact they have with the bigger teams.
They’re doing this halfway thing to get benefits but not responsible for anything that looks bad
There is a “RWF” discord where Blizzard employees post there for them.
If someone was caught doing something they would probably “notify” them there. I think in the past they were told to “not do something” they were doing during a raid so they changed strats.
but then again, will any of you mortals get a notification from Blizzard “hey, don’t do that” or would you simply receive a ban?

This is the only bug regarding Arcane I can find.
Judging by the video I’m watching, this is the bug Dratnos is referring to, though it seems to be fixed according to what I can find.
Here it is for you:
It starts here.
I don’t care or generally watch the race outside of when folks post about drama. That said, I agree with the OP here, if I pulled that exploit I’d be hit with some sort of penalty, the same should apply to everyone
I’d agree if the exploit in question weren’t fixed per every source I can find.
It is literally captured in the streams and shown in Dratnos’ video.
It is not a question of whether it happened or not.
It happened.
all this stuff is red flags but dont think anything will happen
I watched it. Can you timestamp something significant?
All you posted was a contextless snippet of twitter drama.
I think this is what frustrates me the most. The art team, the open world team, dungeon teams and the systems teams work their heart out and it is always ruined because of this elitist attitude some in upper management have to make sure those few thousand players have a good time.
And they wonder why classic is so much more beloved and played.
You either watched a different one or skipped the first part? They go into detail about how the mage exploit was done in the first 10 minutes?
Are you trolling?
Dratnos is casting Liquid RWF. He and Tettles.
They both confirmed.
They are literally working for Liquid.
Did you watch it? I linked the video.
