The problem were the long ranged unlinked shadowsteps (Shadow Meld and Recall) not the assassins.

/roll only happened on double point days (happens every 1-2 months) and red resign on z quest days (once a week) after it was announced HB was to be removed, not even mentioning most of the match manipulation was done by pve population. People actually did play the game and the mass amount of people who RR didn't even get past r2 commander so it still holds worth.
Whatever, it's still a worthless title that no one cares about. It's not my fault if people like to play rotten formats.

You do realize those are both assassin skills?

Hb had a dedicated population of over 1000 people who played it right and were getting a gw2 reward for r3+ commander so bite me on that.

Match manipulation is is a bannable offense, unless you has the fancy trim.

OK - so the argument goes that there shoule be no bans for match fixing because there was once this thing called RR day. Oh it's true that Anet recognised the problem and removed it, but the fact that it existed at all means that it is open Bot slather surely.

Epic lol.

So everyone now is a specialist in precendent law and thinks that precedent law justifies any and all later transgressions. I am not guilty of botting and fixing the matches I did your honour because I was bought up in a world with RR day.

Seriously????????????

How about little pieces of "take responsibility for your actions" and "man up ladybug".

I think people are concerned about being banned for things which weren't actioned on for years making people feel safe to do them and want A-Net to be more vocal about their rules in certain areas it is clear players think are safe to use, and give more warning to stop actions they don't like before throwing down the ban hammer.

Lets also note Match Fixing includes leeching in the RoC which imo is a mistake which makes "match fixing" an even vaguer term than it already was. It's time for A-Net to man up and give more details on these matters so honest players can correct potentially bannable behaviour and avoid it in future.

warrior and assassin primaries in hb towards the end became the only manly way to play (except for a few exceptions like a/mo healers).

So if all characters had access to the skills then who was disadvantaged by this?
