Since the server went down earlier, I popped over to WoW's forum and there is a really long thread about cheating, with this in particular:

Lvl1 chars have been spotted teleporting to chests in plains they cannot be in, and then teleporting straight out. Apparently there's a video somewhere showing this. These are being called 'gold farmers'.

I'm not sure what can be done about this....

[Mblaster]

If Blizzard can get hold of the program it should make fixing it easier... ut otherwise there's nothing we can do.

Let's just hope they catch and BAN everyone who uses that proggy!

Lame cheaters...

[Butcher]

If you see someone using it, raise a ticket with the GMs. Other than that not a lot to be done. :/

Well has anyone here ever seen a single GM ever in the game, I mean are they nocturnal creatures or something ? Also I heard somewhere there's only like 1 GM for Arathor or am I mistaken?

[bertie]

Yeah there was one but sometimes he gets held up in his part time job at the zoo

[ERU]

I sent a GM a report and never got a reply to it.

[e-LAN-go]

That's probably because the GM sent one of his monkeys to do his job when he was busy moonlighting at the zoo .

Accounts being banned for speed hacking

We wanted to take this time to make an announcement about a serious hacking violation in World of Warcraft, one for which we have zero tolerance. Certain individuals have been identified as using speed hacks to accelerate their characters. This goes against the theme of fair play that we have instituted for the game, and is in clear violation of the World of Warcraft Terms of Use.

Those individuals who were caught using the speed hack have been banned from the game and have had their accounts closed. We must stress once again that we are opposed to hacking and cheating of any kind and are dedicated to maintaining a fair environment in our games. This will serve as a final warning to others who are considering using the speed hack. If you are caught using it, you will be banned without question from World of Warcraft and your account will be revoked.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in this matter. If you suspect someone of using the speed hack, or wish to report other instances of cheating, please email us at hacks@blizzard.com. Thank you again
