Anti farm code in Pre-Searing. Why?

I was just repeatedly doing "Charr at the Gate" quest power leveling a new prophecies character and only for about 45 minutes. I guess that's all it takes, :sigh:.

What's odd is that I got the message only after I had decided on a change of pace and went after the pre searing max armors. Now I can't even get the collectors items to drop from all the lvl 1 monsters to get the armor.

I've actually farmed for uniques and the like for far longer periods in post and in all campaigns and have never seen the message until now. Now I'm not sure what to do, the box says to play through the map "normally" to remove it, whatever "normally" means.

Is there anything even worth farming in pre, save for the charr bags and occasional random black dye drops? Seems pretty silly to me. But a few bad apples spoil it for everyone.

just change characters for a while, although i think all my chars are all anti farmed for the trolls and minos.

Yeah it didn't take too long to get out of it. But I wonder if you get profiled after awhile and start to encounter the anti farm code more frequently?
