I feel for the GMs and what they have to do. . . effectively be adult babysitters without even getting paid for it. . . but this is why concerns me about the ruling.
"Note for all players. There's a very clear way to pull mobs out of this bug/or avoid all together. Use your experienced pullers." (Emphasis added)
Is this the GMs way of telling ALL players to git gud? Or, as it sounds like, is the bar for dolling out a guild suspension going to hinge on whether or not that guild had "experienced pullers" involved with the pull at the time? If so, what is metric going to be for measuring how experienced the puller is? Must they submit to a polygraph examination to determine whether or not they know about the bug and know how to fix it? And if there is a "very clear" way to pull mobs out of this bug, why are so many people struggling with it?
TL;DR there is a contradiction between saying that "there is very clear way" to pull mobs out of the bug in one breath, and then, in the next breath, telling ALL players to use "experienced pullers." That turns this into a subjective rule based on who's pulling rather than a clear, straightforward, objective ruling along the line of "if you do X, then Y will happen to you."

There's nothing wrong with new people stepping up and learning, but a full minute is a LONG time for nobody to step up and say "hey stop doing X and do Y instead because it bugs when you do that." Especially when you use said time to pre slow the target.
I had never tagged PD before and stepped in to do it, got stunned and my levi dropped juust enough to not make it over the bridge then promptly died over the lava in VP. Did it "delay" the pull? Sure, all of like 10 seconds, but there was also no advantage like a pre slow gleaned.
