Let's be fair. Nibble was griefing 10-20 players at a time by killing their Quest mob. For hours on end, for days on end. If we figure he policed the Bread Bridge for 2 hours a night, 5 nights in a row, and stopped 10 players from their quest, he effectively wasted 100 elf hours (conservative estimate). Under any circumstance this player would get suspended for zone disruption/whatever.
On the other hand, they nerfed the quest super hard at the same exact time. To the point where it's not even worth doing anymore.
I read this as "you overstepped as a vigilante, but the Authorities agree that this has gotta change." So they slap him on the wrist and take over as the server police by fixing the exploit.
I consider this a badge of honor for old Nibblewitz, and I hope he wears it proudly.

I was a fairly notorious griefer back in my early 20s, so I understand the implications of what he was doing, thank you. That doesn't change the fact that he got suspended for killing an NPC. Completely legal. That it happened to be quest NPC a bunch of exploiters want to do buisiness with is irrelevant. If inconviencing other players by killing mobs is illegal, A/A is overdue for a permaban.
