Agreed. I really don't care either way, just here for the luls of seeing people say LOLINEVERPLUGGED

I feel like what Rogean is talking about was once a feature on a previous box, maybe during the Virulent/Heresy days when everyone and their mother was AE'ing zone lines.
I believe that was more of poor mechanics/code. Where when you zoned, your char could be damaged by (only?) AoEs before you actually appeared on the other side. The server registered the user in the zone, but clients could not physically see their opponents and people were raining the zone line, but the client's side never completely loaded in. When they finally zoned in they were dead or down a few hundred HP.

If Rogean can write code to detect when a person "plugs", force the character model to pop on the other side, and just fight back similiar to an NPC that would be perfect. Not some OP rampaging NPC like VZTZ had where you could exploit your glory lands and destroy a whole raid.. haha.
