Not in either guild. Just commenting, but it doesn't seem like the post indicates he wasn't using the trick. It was showing that in this case a rule against it was enforced, and I suppose the accusation is in other cases it wasn't, despite the same "mechanic" being used.

Something I've seen TMO do in VP to get COH mage to the top of the picture room and in permafrost to get to Vox's lair from the alternate cave.

Ehh Metallikus implied that his guild was moving DOWN from the ramp, meaning they weren't exploiting lev mechanics to achieve height they shouldnt be able to obtain. However, his guildie Legas then instructs other BDA members in /say how to use the trick to get higher up. This was witnessed by GM Derubael so yes it did happen.

What's the full context here? Or is Deru wrong? Or did staff policy change?

God knows staff have seen me (and probably a thousand other players) lev trick ingame without ever saying a word, let alone taking more forceful action because of this "exploit."

Lev trick has been illegal since 2010? at least.

If you're using the lev trick to float 50 ft in the air outside ec tunnel, i couldn't care less.

If you're using the lev trick to reach a shortcut to a raid mob because you don't have enough mages to coth people up there fast enough to get the kill, im going to intervene.

www.fraps.com or petition in game if you see someone using this to gain an advantage like this.

Oh wow, just saw this gem:

I have a guild for you to join, im the leader and its called <Tinfoil Hat>. Everyone has been telling me you're perfect for my guild, ill be happy to make you an officer. Keep acting like a retard, get treated like one.

BDA should know better. Staff gives 0 fucks about any of your guilds. We're just here to make sure you aren't cheating to get your pixels.

Just to clarify- it's illegal for raid mobs and not for HS South and such? Where it's publicized highly on this forum, with no negative response?

Well, I know this is said quite often, but... some stuff in the past would say otherwise. I mean, you say it now, but later on when present becomes history, who knows how many fucks will have been truly given to certain guilds... eh? EH!?
