Blessing of Protection on Flag Carrier

[Grimjoe]

A paladin named Mafiaa just did this to steal it from Raikoz, and I am surprised this is still even possible. Can you PLEASE disable this? Because that's all paladins have to do for the daily, is steal the flag from the FC by using BoP on them.

A reasonable paladin can also prevent the never-ending 2/0 score HKs farming.

So can a zerg rush. There's a reason blizzard fixed that.

I believe this is working as intended.

[Balls]

This is working as intended.

I believe this is working as intended.

Indeed, but does the rules?
In original TBC it was a violation against the rules to use BoP/Divine Intervention on your allies to 'force' them to drop the flag. The notorious 'Mind Control + friendly paladin using BoP/DI at impact moment', to make the enemy lose the flag is also under this rule.

[Grimjoe]

Yeah it's working as intended, but I mean in 3.0, it was fixed (if memory serves). It was frowned upon and people have been given warnings for doing so as it's a method of griefing players.
Think about it this way, you're about to cap the flag and someone uses BoP on you because you wouldn't pass it, and there's an enemy right there and it gets returned. You lost the WSG.

That shouldn't be tolerated.

This is not 3.0

[Grimjoe]

This is not 3.0

I'm perfectly aware, my point being it should be something we take as an adaptation due to how much people abuse it and use it to grief
