Basically you've put your character in a place where the game's designers never intended players to go. Obviously the Gadgetzan guards are there for a reason. By putting your character on the roof you are effectively bypassing this mechanic. This is a geometry exploit. The reason why it's bad is doing this gives you a lot of HK. HK won't give you gold but what it will give you is high rank titles and loot rewards; loot, I might add, you did not earn because the geometry was exploited.

So how is this different from, for example, the exploit that <NOPE> did with Ragnaros?

I love this server but sometimes the rules don't make sense or they seem to have multiple meanings depending on the situation which can constantly change...

Meaning 1: you cannot do this in this situation
Meaning 2: you ABSOLUTELY cannot do this in this situation
Meaning 3: you can do this in this situation as long as you don't do meaning 1 and 2.

GM: "Sorry but we banned you for abusing Meaning 1."
Me: "But I thought I was doing meaning 3."

You are looking into this far too deeply. This is NOT an exploit imo. Anyone can do it. Horde gank ally and ally gank horde at gadget...it is part of the blizzlike game experience. The devs clearly stated in this thread that this IS ALLOWED...except killing through buildings w/ blizzard/volley etc. My question remains, did they change their official position on this? Can they clarify.

Yes Wyzel is a GM. I'm pretty sure GM text shows up differently in chat, doesn't it? I don't have any screen shots...I'm sure someone here must.

Ogtucker, What GM response are you responding to? The GMs just seemed to have ignored this.

Funny because I had a GM tell me in game, that is PROOF is provided that Blizzard didn't allow it, they would change policy on that....They should probably communicate amongst each other. Also this isn't my thread, my thread also had another GM saying they'd "Investigate" but also was another GM, again, they are now conflicting eachother.
