definitely favoritism and hypocrisy

Not that it matters, the staff clearly doesn't like being criticized and since it's a free emulator they put a lot of time in you might as well just suck it up.

Or alternately as you learn about these "features" just make use of them like anyone else, the precedent of not being punished has been set a long time ago. Overall this server still kicks the shit out of any other server out there so you could try enjoying it and just laughing at the Lovely's of the world instead of crying about it. If he is so bad you will eventually catch up to him in levels and gear, and if he's so bad and you are so good you shouldn't even need the amount of gear he needs.

The staff does punish exploits. I successfully reported someone abusing an exploit just the other day. They just don't publicly announce when an exploiter is punished. Also, a lot of the things people call "exploits", are really not exploits at all since they were doable in classic (still it's good that the staff nerfed them, like in the case of red wands). I'd be very surprised if they don't do something about the way Naggy was killed, since that was very clearly exploitative. Maybe they won't ban anyone but I should hope they at least take away the loot (no offense to the guys in Nihilum who I otherwise have no issues with (especially Lovely who I find hilarious) - but we all know the kill was illegitimate).
