Sync exploiting is out of hand

Irony is lost on you… but that’s no surprise.

That is far from the truth…

Shown where? The quote you gave contradicts your argument, even when you tried to post it completely out of context.

You’re even trying it now. This doesn’t even make any sense, and I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt enough to assume you know it doesn’t make sense.

I moved two asterisks to include context in the quote you posted. I’m glad you’ve come to terms with that, now.

He might’ve made a mistake, but everything else the panda said is golden.

This is the Code of Conduct’s definition of cheating, verbatim. There is an in-game system that limits the number of players that can queue into each type of instance, and coordinating by any means, especially using a 3rd-party platform, to bypass that and get into the same match with other people where otherwise that would be a matter of blind luck, is the definition of an unfair advantage. Subsequently, having a large premade group, formed by exploiting nonetheless, curbstomping casual players is extremely degrading to the player experience, which is also defined as being punishable in the CoC.

This is not something that can be “interpreted” or “debated”, because it has already been DEFINED.

I hope so because blizzard has a well know record of not fixing exploits… or even punishing those abusing them.

Read the quote:

queuing at the same time as someone else isn’t considered cheating.

In otherwords, yes, people can create multiple parties to try and sync up to enter the same Battleground together.

The “by other means”, is using addons as a way to automate it or make it easier. People can manually do it, they just can’t use other means to automate in doing it.

“by other means” can also apply to sync queueing… but you don’t really care…

Again, that’s for us, Blizzard doesn’t have to follow those rules. They have their own internal policies. Blizzard says it isn’t.

You can’t even follow your own logic anymore.

I understand that you moved the asterisks. But when I asked why you think that sentence is important, you stated the following:

You even bolded it yourself.

But again, what you fail to recognize in this situation and have repeatedly ignored is the why. You refuse to look any further than the sentence you chose to include because you think it changes any sort of meaning for the action Blizzard did or provides any sort of deeper context.

Like I said, my guy: Semantics.

Correction: They have more clearer policies at how the rules are applied and what they’re applied too.

There is no logic to follow. That is, quite literally, what I did.

As you admit:

Then, after accusing me of trying to make ‘semantical’ arguments, you say the following:

The hypocrisy should be palpable for someone as educated as you.

Just out of curiosity, by the way. I want a linguist’s opinion. What is the value of saying ‘semantical’ as opposed to ‘semantic’? Given semantic is already commonly accepted as an adjective in its present form?

Education does not equal intelligence

Nope. “Queueing at the same time” does not specify coordination so you can’t just interpret that as meaning what you want it to.

  1. That’s what you want it to mean. That was not implied in the quote that you posted, at all. All I see is “by other means”, but you can post other parts of Vrak’s statement if you think that’ll help you. But regardless, Vrak does not make the rules and does not even enforce them in the game as he is a moderator, not a game master.
  2. “by other means” Is extremely vague and definitionally applies to absolutely everything outside of what is mechanically implemented into the game. All you’re doing is interpreting Vrak’s words in ways that you find convenient and that is not how arguments, citations, or discussions work.

You can say that again, Thaedreu.

You were saying?

I think he has told you this before, Vrakthris duties do include GMing, He’s not just a forum moderator. His tool set is the same as ingame GMs. Alos, I’m sure he’s a supervisor. Bring it up on the CS forums, He’ll set you straight.

That was directed at you. You clearly think very highly of yourself.

Again, that dude does not set the rules for world of Warcraft… not sure why that is hard for you to understand? Probably because it’s the only defense you have.

Relatively, yes. Though it’s less that I think of myself as particularly special, and more that I meet a lot of idiots on the internet. Here, everyone has a platform.

Well, you at least prove that education does not equal intelligence.
