not my preciousssssssssssssssss

I don't really care either way (more non-yt for me LULS), but two issues I can think of:

1) The one previously brought up, i.e. the legitimate zone crash. Those people are dead, regardless of whether or not they fight back like an NPC. The list of people who attacked you thing is interesting, though, but hardly a deterrent.

2) There is strategic value in plugging, especially on a server where you won't be able to /who zones. Misdirection is key.

I'm thinking of a situation where two guilds are fighting over a raid mob. Guild A is camping a zone line and Guild B is outside. Guild B doesn't want Guild A to know when they're zoning in, so they zone in and plug to make Guild A think they gave up / logged out.

By 'fixing' plugging in this way, you are legislating that CLASSIC strategy (among others) out of the game.
