I absolutely love arenas
LOL, top 25 all with maxed 5,000 rating.
It's legit, they're just that dedicated over there.
bloody hell, how did they get "negative" 14 in the loss column.

Ya. I was running RBG with friends. We all have 0 ratings. First queue poped, opposing team has 2400 rating. We ended up fighting them for 1 wave. Didn't kill anyone. Our whole team afk out. The entire night, all teams we got are 1800+ plus.Quote:

Unfortunately I am sure Blizz will never do that due to the lost revenue :-(
Just did some 5s , 4 of 10 times no enemy and the other teams who went in played worse than 1,5 team @ 1,9 mmr
I guess now its time for grinding 2,2
HEAPS of people doing this, and I mean HEAPS... it's not worth it people. You might get your accounts banned for doing it and for me that would be 4 xpacs worth of work I have put into these chars. I would be devastated if any of my accounts got banned. This is the easiest exploit in the world to do, even if you are playing normally you can do this to avoid teams you know you will lose against.
Although I have to admit I was tempted to do it with some of my accounts, was tempted. But then I remembered I have never like arenas so I don't really care about ratings. Not getting banned over that.
not like you can prevent it since those guys are queueing all day and you cant see the names
anyway I've queued up against serious teams too, seems like I can stabilize around 1950, I've got 8 arena games on fraps, gonna upload them later today or tomorrow

All multi-boxers abusing this. All on the same battlegroup and server.
Kruschpak for once i'll give credit.
I'm anxious to see that. There was an enhance video posted recently on here and I was quite impressed, especially seeing that enhance isn't totally worthless outside of the 3 minute ascendance cooldown (although when that was up, reminded me of instagibbing targets as ele back in bc/wrath :)Quote:

I think I'd rather have back the account-sharing High Warlord folks than everyone and their dog being able to exploit bugs and/or win-trade.
sweet lets see it!Quote:

almost done, didnt have much time todayQuote:

It just so happens that you didn't lose MMR when you quit during the starting area (got d/c'd via macro) which gave the opposing team MMR and yours stayed the same so you could continue to feed them or get fed to pin-pong your mmr up since you never lost any and only TR... after a certain MMR you'd gain 96 TR per win no matter what.Quote:

wait, what did they do to "fix" it ? just now.
In other news, i see tolbara and wintergrasp (obviously my favorite, and many other boxers') are back for level 90s.
PvP
The growing conflict between the Horde and the Alliance has spilled across the face of Azeroth: level 90 players can now queue for Wintergrasp and Tol Barad via the PvP tab to battle one another in these epic conflicts.
Arena matches now have a 25 minute time limit (was 45 minutes).
Rated Battlegrounds now share the same spell restrictions as Arenas.
UPDATE: November 14
Providing an environment where players can compete in the spirit of fair play is extremely important to us, particularly in rated Player versus Player combat. As part of that commitment we regularly monitor gameplay, and have discovered an issue where some Arena teams have exploited the queuing system to obtain high team ratings, “dodge” unfavorable team compositions, and engage in win trading.
These, and all, exploitative activities are absolutely prohibited. We will investigate the situation carefully, and players that have been found to have participated in exploitation will be subject to the appropriate actions against their World of Warcraft accounts and characters, including:
- Arena team deletion
- Character MMR reset to 1500
- All Conquest gear removed
- Conquest earned tally reset, as well as all Honor and Conquest points removed.
- All Arena achievements earned since the beginning of Mists of Pandaria removed.
- 3 day suspension
Please note that as of this posting, these penalties have not yet been applied. In the meantime, we have implemented a hotfix to resolve any remaining issues with the queue system to prevent this behavior in the future. Our first priority has been addressing the exploit and dealing with the players that took advantage of it. After that’s resolved, we'll assess the ladder and determine whether it's the right course, or even feasible, to make further adjustments.
there hitting them hard though if u read on the web a lot the cheaters just going to say they got "hacked"
http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/7118303086
Awesome news that they are resetting their mmr!

all npc's been buffed.
atm its not giving honor for winning/losing. (on the ptr is is CRZ? not sure if that go live or not)
and you can buy mote of Harmony for honor as well 400 each.
Yea just log in under a foreign country vpn and then give blizz a call saying you were hacked. good to go.Quote:

This change or punishment doesnt really do anything. There are alot of players who queued into these exploit teams and gained alot of mmr 3k+ in some cases that wont be punished because they did nothing wrong or will fall under the radar.
I never liked TB that much.. ill do it for the honor though. LOVE WG though! I missed it in Cata.. i even did it a few times just for kicks.Quote:

Please note: Conquest Point caps should not be affected by this reset. Point Caps will return to the appropriate levels relative to rating the following week.
