LFR Bans are out
Account Name: **********

Account Action: 8 Day Suspension
Reason for Action: Bug Exploitation
Details: Raid Finder Loot Abuse

After a thorough investigation, we have found that a player of the account above was found to have participated in the exploitation of in-game bugs with the Raid Finder feature. By utilizing these bugs, the above account was able to acquire, distribute, or obtain gear and equipment from a Raid Finder encounter multiple times in the same week, inconsistent with the intended mechanics of the Raid Finder feature.

These actions violate the World of Warcraft Terms of Use. We ask that you take a moment to review these terms at http://us.blizzard.c...l/wow_tou.html. Specifically, please see the Code of Conduct - Rules Related to Game Play: "(i) Using or exploiting errors in design, features which have not been documented, and/or "program bugs" to gain access that is otherwise not available, or to obtain a competitive advantage over other players".

We strongly believe the restrictions of the Raid Finder loot system are clear, and the account demonstrated an apparent and malicious intent to bypass these loot restrictions. As a result of this policy violation, we have suspended this account for 8 days, and will be removing all items obtained illegitimately. This suspension and item removal will not be overturned under any circumstances. Any contact to Blizzard Support regarding these actions will be met with the same response: the actions will not be reviewed, re-investigated, or overturned under any circumstances.

This action has been taken in accordance with the Terms of Use and our In-Game Policies (http://us.blizzard.c...t/article/20309). These actions were not taken lightly and were only performed after a full investigation of all information. Any recurring subscriptions on this account have been suspended to prevent further monetary charges.

Thank you for your understanding regarding this matter.

I guess we'll get to see what guilds did and didn't exploit based on progression this week.

Doubt it affected anyone at our skill level. Most 10 man guilds don't have enough characters to fill a 25-man LFR to exploit anyway (otherwise they'd probably be doing 25s).

Yeah, not sure how they got banned and Vodka/BL didn't, but /shrug.

[Sobeyet]

I find it hilarious that 22 out of the top 25 guilds in the world are 10-man now.

[Hesher]

Ya lol, everyone made the switch.

Your trolling has really fallen by the wayside.

[Guinthel]

That wasn't even trolling, just trying to clean up the forums trash posters.

On WoW forums? Good luck with that.

He deleted his post, then continued to argue with me about how I wasn't contributing anything to the forum by posting that kind of response. Then I got banned.

Success imo.

Contributing to WoW forum discussions is like taking a dump on a compost pile.
