Interesting.
Personally I consider AV to now be fair game for afk/semi afk type behavior. If they are going to give up on providing an epic PvP experience, I'm going to give up on playing in it. As many problems as it had, old school AV really gave me the tingles sometimes. Now its a dreary PvE exercise, often over faster then the "lunchtime" AB.
I wonder if the guy you got a 3hr's suspension for got it for mouthing off. If I'm going to afk (just did a few marks to top me off to 20 for the next patch), the last thing I want to do is yell at morons. I watch TV (hooray for wireless keyboards) or read forums. I've done this for a sizable portion of the exalted grind on 2 toons as well as those 20 marks for my main. I have yet to have a problem.
Bots are a different matter. If somebody is using a bot, they get what they have coming.
AB/WSG are also different. They are small enough that one person sitting out hurts the rest. They are also well designed, and deserve your full attention.
The new BG looks fun, but there isn't any word on Azshara crater yet, is there? Maybe after I get that swampland, I can get a catapult to drive around on it.
