You need to learn the diffrence between playing arena, MMR dropping & wintrading cause they are diffrent things in the same place.

Well i do know the difference, but when there are 2 teams(mine incl) in queue that play and 2 that drop mmr its kindda weird. And thats 4 hours straight (tried in 2s and got the same result) today ....dont tell me i should not play,coz some1 is abusing the system. Just want a confirmation,about the ban rulez.

win trading: losing on purpose to give the enemy team rating, as longas you arent doing that you wont be banned for wintrading

I assume this is for the MoP realms?
If so, some background for other posters: There is a bug in the system on MoP that if your opponents do not enter the arena, you will gain free rating. Furthermore, the enemy team does not drop MMR nor lose rating. As such, players will often feel like they can be said to be "win-trading" as they are getting rating without even playing a game.
This is further complicated by the fact that, most of the players not joining arenas in the first place, are win-traders. I can see OPs concern.
@OP, I stop queueing 3v3 whenever I realize this is the situation. I hope a GM can post an answer. If not, you should pm Aldtharios and link to this thread and explain your concern. He is the head gm.
Best of luck!
