Well, his manner of delivery was, indeed lacking tact...... He is 100% right in his opinion. Team trading hurts other players VERY badly. When you have people in the higher levels of gear, and skill, dropping into the lower brackets.. you are taking points away from the people in those brackets. It is in fact an exploitation of a system that blizzard did not intend, and IS correcting in 2.4. How ever, it also is indeed not cheating .........just wrong........ As 5 boxers, we should never do any thing that actually unfairly harms another player, lest we draw the ire of blizzard, and they turn against us.
Also.... the forum post editing I have seen recently is fairly heavy handed....... sprited discussion should be encouraged not squlched.

Edit: Glad your back and there not a rift in the community... there are enough haters on the wow general forums (shudder).

Team trading, like just about everything else in Arena, is messed up as Blizz attempts to get their failure of an e-sport working. Its not really fair to come down on a member of the multiboxing community for doing what thousands of single players do. Do I condone it. Not at all. I hate point selling, team trading, and all the other unintended manipulations of the point system. But that's just what I think, and it only goes so far as the tip of my nose. I've seen high rated players who legitimately join a low ranking team to bring their rating up. They're just helping out a friend. Several steps away from that, you start to get seedier and seedier. However, whatever the case, its all getting changed at S4 anyway, so no point crying about it now.
