Quote:In a "Rust Storm" style move, Blizzard has taken action against Arena Teams that practiced Win-Trading. Several folks received 72 hour or even permanent bans, while every one caught had their Arena gear stripped off and their Arena Points total reset. Why folks think that they'll get away with cheating is beyond me anyhow, but it's nice to see Blizz crack down on this, as it was making Arena irritating for those not doing it.
This is great. The thread linked at the top of that article is a real win as well.
Here's a great quote from someone trying to justify their win-trading by using the "but someone else did it while they were using my account" defense:
Quote:Idc either. It wasn't me who even did this. I honestly think, once they stop this mass banning Blizzard will give me all my gear back. Once they check the different IP's when the win trading occured.
Brilliant!
