There are no easy solutions. If we're bound by the project owners desire to have "competition" then the only way to prevent this type of cheating is have mobs rooted or leashed to an area. Then it becomes a first in force situation where you have a whole guild that would need to run to an area/spawn point to kill a mob instead of having an fte race.

If it were up to me and we weren't bound by some un-classic idea of "competition" I would keep blue/green separate and have one be the competitive server with all the raid rules you like to foster whatever kind of competition the masses desire and I'd have the other one be the rotation server where there is very little if any competition and raids are rotated between qualified guilds. Allow xfers between each server for a set amount of time and call it good.

The hardcore neckbeards get their competition server and the people who enjoy playing games on easy difficulty to experience the story get the rotation server.
