Wintergrasp abuse

Is it normal to consistently abuse Wintergrasp queue / Wintergrasp start ?

Don't get me wrong I don't mind facing a Multiboxer that plays fair, having Tenacity 8 is fun after all.

I'm specifically talking about:

- Wintergrasp queue abuse
The action of constantly falling in wintergrasp with 40 starfalls WITHOUT being queued (so no tenacity for enemy faction) and repeating all wintergrasp long

- Wintergrasp start abuse
The action of Starfallingx40 the enemy faction within the 15seconds of joining queue, making them die so start late, and having less cooldowns for the ones who tried to counter

The character limit is 25 so shouldn't be 40 characters.

Personally I think it is bad to do those things. I don't think it is against the rules, at least not the 2nd one (although it does make 1 team take longer to start, split them up and make them less likely to be buffed up for first big fight). I know some big multiboxers have done it a lot, it is really bad behaviour since everyone appear at the same location and when stacking a lot of fire nova it does 50k+ damage to everyone within range so noone can survive it and starfall deals additional damage when players are near each others so also impossible to survive.

Getting into WG without being in it allows going above the max characters per team, so that feels like it would be against rules. Although that depends on how warmane want to handle it. Could argue that they are just doing world pvp in an a zone that is open to anyone, WG isn't in a seperate instance like bgs.

If it would be against the rules to fight in WG without being in it, then wiping other team at start could technically also be against rules since at that point they have not accepted the invite.

But I have seen it done a lot of times, I really doubt it would be against rules when it has happened so much.

This is bannable if you report it with proper proof.

Idk about this case though, you can always ask GMs via ticket in-game.

I used to ask a GM back when WG was released and he said it's allowed. So unless the rules have changed since then it's fine.

Still allowed?

Just to know for when my 25 druids are 80, wintergrasps are gonna look awesome
