Due to the vast amount of cheating going on in the 5v5 bracket we have deleted all 5v5 teams. We are aware that there were a few legit teams (very few) and we wish to apologize to them.

Cheating is against our terms of service and can result in a ban, to quote the TOS:

Cheating is defined as any attempt to give yourself an advantage over players that does not follow the spirit of the game. Any player caught cheating will be banned.

Due to the fact that almost every 5v5 team was involved in win trading we are being nice and not banning. We will be disabling the 5v5 bracket at some point before next week’s flush to permanently solve this issue.



This is for Eternal and Redemption.

[mikacman]

Nope.

[Evcon]

Clever use of game mechanics, IMO.

Well done though, this is how it should be.

And yes I will take every flame since this is most likely my fault for posting about it in the first place. MY B guys!

I totally support this decision, however. I hope GM's will keep an eye on the 5v5 teams now and BAN next time. Right now the teams that played fair are also affected because of the cheaters actions.

[MattTheMirth]

Thank you Eternal-Wow staff. I'm glad this problem has been rectified and not been left alone to sort itself out as was originally hinted at by other GM's. Props to ya'll!

5v5 will be closed. There is no next time.

The people demanded action, and so we acted - but with limited resources, we didn't reach the most suitable option. As stated a few times in the threads revolving around the issue.

SO LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT , you go PUBLICLY announcing thats its perfectly " OK TO WIN TRADE " mentioned by a super gm now u wanna delete the bracket ? how about this. make up your minds , you realized that; oh yea everyone is going to have free gear and most of fear inc is in the top 10 5's teams with equal wins and equal losses.
what about my team 40-5 COOL STORY bro oh well how about make people who repeat this baned so dont remove the bracket because a certain guild is nub and thinks they can cheat to get free gear and thanks for keeping an eye on the top 10 cheating teams . about time someone did shit about it . and as for the super gm telling everyone its cool . ;[

[fecker]

My words are still in my mind or...should I say, 'I told u'...

[youbunto0]

The people demanded action, and so we acted...

The people have been demanding other actions too. Like closing bugged dungeons or making some bosses tank-and-spankable so we can finish our RDF's. Shouldn't that have priority in a PVE realm? Don't get me wrong, i aprreciate your work most of the time, but sometimes i just don't understand your line of thought.

[Buddahsupe]

Oh good thing this isn't for Remorse XD I got really worried until I read that at the very bottom. My 5v5 team on Remorse was number 3 last I checked.

[Stonesourfan99]

Why would you even "win trade," it takes the whole point away from arenas. People like this aren't very impertinent.

Besides, the people that didn't cheat... which was very few, are going to be VERY apprehensive.


How atrocious!
