Every guild has at one point broken a rule. BDA was even suspended before. But only one entity consistently gets caught and admits to things that are actual manipulation of mechancis via either auto-fire or in this case alt+tab. I mean these are things that use 3rd party programs or manipulate the client of the game.

They then turn around and say in response "You guys did this in the past" and point to in game items players used that anyone could farm.
The farmability of an item is irrelevant. Anyone can alt tab as well.

The point was it goes against the spirit of the rules. The shadow step mask for example clearly went against the spirit of the rules because you're exploiting the way the game calculates where to send you when the terrain you are in has a downward slopping Z Axis value (it always sends you to the lowest point).

That's why it was banned. Not because farming shadow men was seen as too tedious.
