The rules clearly states that it's totally allowed to be an asshole but they are pretty fussy about these things.
A Game Master need to help and clarify.

C. Gameplay

Nostalrius Begins recognizes all valid play styles to be part of the game, and not harassment, so player-killing the enemies of your race and/or faction, including camping the spirit healer, corpses and/or gravestones, is considered a part of the game. While playing on a Player vs. Player server, you should always remember to protect yourself in zones where the members of a hostile faction can attack you. The act of "stream sniping" is not a violation of this agreement as we cannot intervene if someone in-game makes the decision to communicate their every move, thereby informing other users of their position and/or in-game status. Nonetheless, certain behaviour goes beyond what is considered fair and are considered a violation of this agreement. This behaviour includes, but are not limited to, the following:

Using or exploiting errors in design, features, and/or bugs to gain access that is otherwise not available, to facilitate and/or grant you an advantage over other players.
Engaging in combat whilst standing on a section of the world that neutralizes the ability of town guards to detect and/or engage you.
Engaging players through various world terrain, such as roofs that is otherwise not possible, to facilitate and/or grant you an advantage.
Intentionally not participating or otherwise being AFK within a battleground.

It isn't an error in design or a bug, though. It's just a dick move.

Now, MCing someone through a BG portal can cause them to get banned by anticheat, so I can see them punishing people who grief folks this way.

I think it's not bannable, but clarification would be nice.

It's quite an issue to miss out on 15 minutes of rank farming on multiple occasions just because someone decides to be a dick.

Hi

Mind Controling players out of Battlegrounds through the portal is considered as a part of the game, this got even confirmed by multiple GM's in this forum as well as ingame.

One example;

Thanks everyone for playing on Nostalrius, it was the best WoW experience in a long time.
