No individual moral stance here is relevant. DA /q has been accepted on this server for a long time. Only now is it being limited, which is fine, but it's very unclear what they are trying to limit here with the threat of a ban.
It doesn't matter what any of us personally think about it. All that matters is what exactly they are trying to stop.
I joined a BDA group once leveling up. The first thing they asked me was if I had an exemption, and then we went on to talk about our mutual friend Eadric. Exploiters be damned!

This isn't an anti-TMO thing for me. Soc you are an old friend and one of the best players/raid leaders I've ever played with. Knix is an old friend as well. I'm only speaking up here because I don't think you guys are being entirely honest with yourselves about this situation. Yes, this issue has long been a 'grey' area that many players from many guilds took advantage of to save them from a death, or to speed recovery from a wipe in sky, and it stayed under the radar for the most part.
Aiaus just changed that forever in VP last week. Blame him, not the GMs, if you are unhappy. They have been quite lenient in my view in only revoking his IP exemption. Now isn't the time to try rule-lawyering the GMs to death, it's a time for anyone who has been in the habit of doing this to lay low and purposefully avoid /exiting with agro until they patch the fix in. Maybe it's not quite as simple as that in the VP train wars, but at the very least make sure you aren't doing what Aiaus was doing.
