Comentado por Nixeska Oh for a second I thought the bug was I got loot from my first kill and bonus roll for once. Comentado por dokeefe1986 Maybe they should also focus on pushing out content that isn't ridden with fundamental bugs. This is basic stuff. Come on... Comentado por Andmyaxe And the Banhammer claims more souls. Good riddance. Comentado por Theclosk Wait, so after killing him and not getting anything except for AP on my bonus roll, I could have kept killing him until I got loot? Damnit! Comentado por Grimora Good. Comentado por LadyTannette Good riddance to bad trash and all that. Comentado por tdillon79 Based on past experience, I could have killed him 100 times and got nothing. :) Comentado por Lemonopy Well crap, I killed it 3 times and bonus rolled it. Thought the loot was only coming from the bonus rolls and was behaving like killing raid bosses for rerolls....so it will suck if the banhammer hits me. Comentado por infamousnic Maybe their developers should lose more of a Christmas bonus for not properly testing the content rather than expecting people not to follow human nature on the internet and suspending them. Comentado por Stovn LOL. I love their selective decision like this. I remember the bug with the Pterrodactyl mount. OH MAN PEOPLE ARE EXPLOITING THE SHARE QUEST FEATURE? LETS FIX THAT AND LET PEOPLE KEEP IT WHO GOT TO EXPLOIT IT BUT THE ONES WHO WERE GOOD AND DIDNT ARE OUT OF LUCK AND HAVE TO FARM IT THEMSELVES! When CLEARLY the real fix is to remove the item drop and just let players talk to the NPC right away... so dumb.. Comentado por randomnut I wonder if they'll get their Azerite armor removed if they used some of that exploited residuum to buy it. Comentado por rhostam Maybe their developers should lose more of a Christmas bonus for not properly testing the content rather than expecting people not to follow human nature on the internet and suspending them.

This isn't "human nature on the internet." Even if it was, who says that behavior should be rewarded? These are players of an online game, sure. But these players knew this was a bug and they chose to exploit it.

The banhammer and related actions are not without precedent.

Should Blizzard take more time to QA? Of course! I worked in the industry for almost a decade and let me tell you that it isn't as easy as everyone seems to think it is. I now work for a SaaS company and it still isn't just that easy. All of the good intentions and thought out test plans can feature a weakness or oversight. Hardware has this problem. Automotive industry has this problem. Operating systems have this problem. If anything is "human nature," it would be our tendency towards fallibility. Comentado por JRKnightz yeah gotta love how they penalize us for their failures and bugs Comentado por Power200 Well #$%^ my bonus roll didn't work on the first few kills so guess ill get banned now...GG blizz why test the game when you can have us "beta" it and then punish us Comentado por randomnut yeah gotta love how they penalize us for their failures and bugs\r
\r
There's a difference between looting an extra piece of loot accidentally vs farming a boss for hours with the intention of exploiting an obvious bug. Comentado por Joshmaul yeah gotta love how they penalize us for their failures and bugs\r
\r
Honest mistakes is one thing. Outright exploitation is another. And on the topic of "human nature", if anything is human nature nowadays, it's two concepts: "gimme that" and "how can I get more". Comentado por Bikonito imagine suspending players instead of testing your game Comentado por deathlavitz on one hand i dont blame people, but on the other when you see you can kill a world boss multiple times without a lockout you should stop. I mean its not intended for that in any game now is it? The community should know blizzard favors the horde heavily, if you see something good as an alliance player its probably a bug. However this one, is a very obvious one you really only have yourself to blame for abusing it, and you knew when you were doing this that it was abuse. Comentado por Mesm yeah gotta love how they penalize us for their failures and bugs\r
\r
I take it that you yourself did this then?\r
\r
They have always taken this kind of action against these exploits, it goes way way back. Comentado por Rankkor yeah gotta love how they penalize us for their failures and bugs

They are not penalizing players for their failures and bugs, but because those players exploited said failures and bugs.

Imagine this scenario: You're doing a very hard exam in your classroom, everyone else is struggling real hard with the questions, but you're acing them one by one, because the day before, just as the teacher was getting into her car, you saw how the answer sheet for the test accidentally fell out of her briefcase. You picked it up, and are now using it to answer all the questions on the test. But to your surprise, the next day, you find out you failed your exam, turns out there were security cameras you weren't aware of in the classroom, which clearly show you using the answer sheet to cheat at the test.

You could make the argument that you're only being penalized for the failure and incompetence of the teacher, but you're forgetting one important thing: Anyone can make a mistake. We're humans, imperfection is in our nature. The teacher made an honest mistake through no malice or ill intent on her part. YOU on the other hand made the conscious decision to pick up the answer sheet and keep it, instead of turning it over at the faculty office without looking at it, as a good student should. YOU made the choice to take advantage of, and exploit someone else's honest mistake for your own benefit, and THAT is what is being penalized.

Same principle applies here. These players are not being punished for a mistake blizzard made. They're being punished for taking advantage of someone else's mistake for their own gain, instead of doing what every honest player should do if they encounter a bug: Report it.

If you killed Ivus twice, and got loot twice, report it, sure, they'll take away the extra loot, which sucks, but its the right thing to do.
