"Fix" Speed Runs? How about fixing the real issue?

[Lephise]

Game Design 101: players will always find ways to break, circumvent, or speed up past artificial processes that slow progression.

Also MMO Design/Maintenance 101: Fix issues found by players to prevent exploits.

No one can really claim that the speedrunning was not exploiting. I think it was just a design fault they overlooked. Games are meant to be played in some way, and there has to be some rules how things work out, like clear your way to the boss rooms. If an issue is found where the game's "rules" can be broken it should and will be fixed.

I may not have full set from the speedrun exploits, and i still dont consider myself a bad player. Even if its a MMO its still a game, and I enjoy actually playing my games instead of exploiting my way through.
