Also, can anyone fill me in on what exactly people were exploiting? Are SE upset that people were getting 2k EXP overnight? Or a stack of Chigoe Blood? What? I have no idea what has been exploited in Grauberg [S] so that people actually profited off of it. The worst I can imagine is people doing trial kills, which is still horribly inefficient. I don't see what's, in any way, shape or form, bad about this.

I actually do care a bit about this, because I've used this to make pulling easier. This has been especially useful for trials, where you can pull with Dia or even by activating a BP and have the avatar engage the mob automatically. It will be a bit more tiresome to do it manually, and I'm opposed to any trade off of intellectual labor for manual labor.
PPL were doing it to farm wind geodes and Garudites while AFK, due to the frequent wind weather in the zone and ease of killing chigoes.
