Instead of playing the "holier than thou" card and tossing around accusations of cheating and exploiting, why dont you think of a solution? You've already stated that trying the Ring War isnt the issue, so what do we do with the Dain that spawns if we fail?
Exploit it or don't.

It's pretty simple. We're guests here. By logging in, we tacitly agree to keep the server rules. One of those rules is not to exploit buggy shit. If Dain is buggy and we're keeping our end of the deal, we leave Dain up. At that point, it becomes the Staff's problem and they make an amendment one way or another (which, by the way, I called for).

As it stands, it's not yours to kill because it's buggy any more that it would be your call, if you were a guest in my house, to determine that you had the right to drink all of my beer (without invitation) because it was nearing the best by date. Or because someone else might drink it.

So you didn't answer my question: do you need to be told not to exploit every exploitable bug?

To answer yours: you're a guest here. Follow the house rules. If one of them is not to exploit bugs, don't do it. Leave Dain up if it's a buggy Dain. That's their problem to solve, not yours.

I understand the situation and it's admittedly a tough one. Especially absent intervention. I really don't care what Forsaken chooses to do. But couching it in the terms that everyone is gonna exploit a buggy Dain so let's figure out how to cooperate in the exploitation is pretty bankrupt given the rules that we all agree to follow when we log in.

This really shouldn't be our problem. And guilds shouldn't be put in the position to need to figure out how to solve it - or what to do about it themselves. It's a 3+ month bug that hasn't been fixed yet (nor has any punishment been meted out for clearly violating house rules...so why bother keeping them?) - and given the nature of the sever and human nature, I do understand that the situation is pretty untenable.
