Wintrading?

Hello, I've got few questions, but let me start from the beggining. Yesterday my friend Abbie was playing WD on druid Maduk with his mate Djragexx. They failed against some low rated priest/rogue. (They were above 2k). So the priest rogue decided to leave the game since it would cost like a lot of rating. What's important: nobody asked them to leave. So after that happend Abbie qued for another game and in the middle of it Abbie and Djragexx got teleported out of arena by GM Noxx who also informed them that they are getting banned for wintrading. That lose was about -30 points also it ruined the 76:0 win-lose ratio.

So here are my questions:
-If i leave arena without being asked for it, my opponents are getting banned? That's great way to get rid of people you don't like. I Should try it.
-Is it alright to teleport people out of arena in the middle of the game? They did not wintrade and it can be proved easly and they will probably get unbanned but how is Noxx going to compenstate the -30 rating lose?

Keep in mind that it happend one week before the arena season end.

-30 is nothing, it will only be something like 15 wins against 1,7-1,8k players. :)))

might take a little bit more considering that they are banned

It's because teleporting and banning people is easier and faster than checking multiple games and banning the real wintraders.
You must understand that it's a race, mayore.

I agree with Mayore, you can solve this differently as GM Teams.

Ye we were both a little bit confused... I mean who wouldn't be Happy if a low team leave vs u when u're 2k?

The Main Problem is, Noxx ported us out to say "You're banned now cause of Wintrade" of the next arenas and we got -30... that's like 15+ more wins now... at this time, 6 days before season ends a bit much

Maybe he should check some logs before bann people... just people like Greenpeace said we're WT... but the team just left, we didn't whisp them or anything to do that, didn't anything wrong here.

Hope The Admin is going to check this.

Hi there. Let me please note that while I understand many members of the community are very opinionated on this subject, at the end of the day, anecdotal evidence from players is useless in these situations. We are going to review our arena logs, chat logs, evidence submitted to us by our staff and players spectating and come to a conclusion based on that.
