definately an exploit
IT is just a unfair player. Maybe is it allowed, buit it is not nice.
You know what also doesn't allow PVP? PVE servers. You know, one of the most common type of server, the more general kind of server. When you say "Go play on an RP server if you don't like PVP" it plays on the common misconception that players who role play do not/can not PVP.
And your last comment makes you out to be rather callow.

rez then continue doing what you were doing. Really not that big of a deal. or kill him yourself, if you can't, thats unfortunate, maybe more practice and less QQ would help a bit.
.. lol even my non wow playing sister said this would be a fair situation.

Rofl I gotta admit, I do this alot on my shadow priest out in Uldum near the Rep vendor. So many afkers by him i just roll dots on them and watch as they run/fly away to death.
On a side note, I used to do the same thing in Wintergrasp above the vendors.
Basement Wizard Extraordinaire!
It's PvP. Deal with it and counter it. It's bad enough that 'camping' is now considered greifing in PvP servers. Can't help but laugh when thinking how anyone who reports this sort of behavior would of lasted in Vanilla.
I dont think its an actual Sanctuary zone. Had a good 30 minute match with a DK right on the edge of the Argent Tourny border where it swaps between Sanctuary and Flagged, and every time he would step in, I would run back and wait for him to step out so I could charge him.
First and foremost, the most important thing about this thread is this... you can see who is a douche bag, and who is a normal person by their response to this question.
Simply put, there is no way to defend his actions. Anyone who does so, is of the same type mentality as the guy in question.
He is explointing a dead zone that guards won't attack him, and he is doing it because his chosen class/spec allows him to knock down anyone who would challenge him with typhoon.
Obviosly there is a dark part in each of us that would enjoy doing what he is doing, but most of us don't. And if you do, you should at least be able to recognize and admit you are exploiting and doing something 'not right'
Again, there is no defense to this. If you try and defend it, you are revealing yourself to be a douchebag.
it is exploiting, people used to do it back in classic and they changed the guards and banned a few people iirc
funny that they'd make the same mistake 6 years later
I would have to agree that guard evasion is wrong but ganking people unfair,cheap,sad but not really illegal.
PvP is PvP. There really isn't much you can do about it besides get on your main, kick his ass, then mock him when calls up about 5 of his guildies to help because he has to take advantage of loopholes and have someone hold his hand to PvP. That's my usual situation.
Standing on the rafters in the inn, try to go to Ysera to get quests you are dead. Try to talk to quartermaster you are dead. Try to defend yourself guards kill you. Set foot inside the building you are dead. Ticketed a GM, since there were people hiding around the graveyard also killing. Working as intended. Attempts to dislodge found rogues and druids in stealth around boomkin. As well as a healer also in hiding. Again, working as intended. Nobody could quest, talk to the vendors, or do anything for six hours. Working as intended that was bull shit griefing. Level 85's camping quest givers and quartermasters.
It's not actually working as intended. You know it, and they know it. They know there is a problem, but they can't talk to you about it and take sides, especially on a pvp server.
It's simply a coding problem involving the guards and dead zones, and trust me, they fix things like that if the issue is big enough.
if they're exploiting a function of the game, i report em. or camp them for several hours and then i never see em again
if your going to go around and call everyone who agree with this exploiter a douchebag then you should think about the topic a little bit more.
IT IS A PVP REALM.
This means if you see someone of the opposite faction, KILL THEM.
it doesnt necessarily say do it while exploiting, but if someone does find a way, then good for tem let them have ther fun for awhile.
but if you choose to be on a PvP real you are obviously looking to PvP, and should not complain like a scrub when you lose in a fight. i'm sure all of this wouldn't have been an issue if mr warlock would have killed mr boomkin.
moral : if you choose a pvp server to level on, DEAL WITH IT. if not transfer to an rp/pve realm.
also, if your bad at pvp, then you shouldnt be on a pvp server.

So, when someone's complaining that they got ganked on a PvP server and someone suggests that they go to an RP or PvE server, how is that not the most reasonable suggestion? Either fight back or go someplace where it's not an issue.
Damn, you RPers are oversensitive. Just because I used RP servers in my suggestion doesn't mean you need to take it personally.
Are you lacking the ability to read? Suggesting someone goes to a PVE or an RP server is fine. Why? You're including both, by saying bluntly "Don't like PVP go play on an RP server" is implying that they are obviously an RP'er because they don't like PVP. What if they were not a role player? Sending them to a role play server just seems like a silly idea to me.
Damn, you generalizing people are judgmental.

You didn't suggest he go to "an RP or Pve server" like you are now claiming, you simply said "RP server", implying RP servers are bad at pvp, but really going to an rp server is a bad suggestion, because the opposite of PvP is PvE not, RP. there's no such this as a server that implements both the rules of a PvE server and a PvP server simultaneously, because those two are opposites, but there are RPPVP Realms that have both the rules of an RP realm and a PVP realm, so if one were to go from a PvP realm, to one of the RP realms that's also PvP, they would still be gankable, and griefable, and therefore the aformentioned problem that started this thread would not be solved.
