At this stage of the post, it's clear that people are split on two sides.

1) Those who think the rules Blizzard put out are stupid and should be disregarded, regardless of the fact that its a Blizzard Sponsored tournament.

2) Those who agree/disagree with the rules, but understand that they must be adhered to since everyone agreed to follow them in the first place.

If the people in the first camp would stop insulting those in the second camp, we could probably focus on ways to change the rules in the first place. But since the people in the first camp have such a weak point, they have to resort to cheap argumentative tactics to make their case.

Anyhow, as previously said in earlier posts, playing WoW is like posting on this forum. Whether or not you choose to follow the rules set forth by the creators is up to you. If you choose to disregard EJ rules, you can find yourself here The Banhammer and here The Dung Heap. In WoW's case, they have the rules in front of you when you create an account. When they patch the game, they slap you with the rules again. Whether or not you choose to follow them is up to you. You will eventually end up in WoW's version of the The Banhammer .

How about I close this derailed thread before people start flinging shit like a bunch of damned retards? Oops, too late.
