No more Discoveries

[Concillian]

How would you propose they administer punishment to those that used the exploit? How would they determine who made discoveries legitly versus those who didn't?

You don't have to find that many. Just a couple. Remove all discoveries and 3 day suspension.

Find a couple guilds who fought "MalCHEEZER" instead of Malchezaar like yours did. 3 day suspension and destroy all prince gear in the guild.

Word will get around.

I mean do you honestly think that people who did either of these thought it was right? It's not like these things require more brain function than an average 5th grader to figure out they're exploits. Give people a reason to think twice about exploiting. Are you smarter than a 5th grader? no? Banstick!

As it is now it's like a twisted game of hide and go seek... but more like find the exploit and use it as much as you can before they patch it out. Total BS.

In this case the exploiters gain a rather lasting improvement out of the discoveries. Not only will they keep them, but because Blizzard put a stop to it, they now have less competition and can charge a much higher rate for making these special flasks / elixirs than if the exploit had remained in the game and everyone was on a level playing field. They are doubly rewarded for their exploitation.
