Mind Controlling Players Out of Battlegrounds

by FrostyDog » Fri Jan 01, 2016 4:47 am

I was playing Arathi Basin with my usual 15-man and the Priests (myself included) were mind controlling some of the Alliance players out of their portal so they would get deserter. Immediately following the completion of the game, GM Velsdra whispered me the following conversation:

However, GM Tyrael has recently specified that this behavior is allowed. The thread proving this is as follows:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=28863&start=20

Not to cause misunderstanding. I am thankful that Velsdra warned me before doing anything bold, but...

1. I don't want myself or other players being banned over misunderstandings within the GM core and
2. This has been a grey area in the past, but with Tyrael confirming the validity of this behavior, I would appreciate if this received some attention.

Thank you for your time.

Yeah I made a GM ticket about this not too long ago (last WSG weekend) when it happened to some of my teammates and GM said it was an in-game interaction that is part of the game and it's not against the ToU (only thing that counts as griefing in the current edition of the ToU is spawning Infernals in starting zones and killing important quest mobs for more than 24 hours.)

Greetings,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention and we apologize for the mistake.

The warning applied to your account is not valid as MCing a player out of a BG portal is allowed.

Regards,
GM Team.
