Cause on retail a monster would go white and lose aggro. Only times I remember a teleport glitch was znms and abyssea. And even then it was bannable if you got caught. Doesn't matter if you wanna try to derail this conversation. This is cheating, abusing teleporters is not a mechanic. Also his original defense of him not damaging the monster makes it not an exploit is completely wrong, an exploit by definition is "to make use of meanly or unfairly for one's own advantage" The advantage being killing the NM hence why you did it. Also he knows its wrong by even bringing up the damage comment and trying to deflect.

Everyone was pretty mad when Teenytaru pinned KB on a wall with carbuncle for 25 minutes too but he didn't get banned either. But a group that was weirdly pathing an ownm did. Just depends how hes feeling when he hears about a thing I guess. Really don't see how you can look at the path Boroka is taking between islands and make any comparison about it to retail. I do agree the responsibility is on him to fix the pathing or make some stipulations on mobs able to go unclaimed if theyre not being acted on or able to act on anything for an extended time.

On retail and strategies your referring to is about losing hate on teleports because monsters lost aggro and turned white if everyone went through. Someone would take it to teleporter to lose hate and have it run back to a party member. This is a single person using a method where the monster never gets to attack him,he never loses hate, and can do it as a lvl 1. Something completely not doable on retail.

Anyone can do that here legally with ix'drg but if it gets snatched away from them in the process that is on them too. This isn't the same.

This.

Normally I agree with you ctha but I think youre heavily conflating the two things together here when its just not comparable. The strategy youre talking about using would have the mob go unclaimed over and over and over again in retail and it would be taken by someone who doesn't need to employ that tactic if they are around to do so.
