A few times in last weeks, had happened that when two factions have enemy flag, when alliance was to try find our flag to return it, carrier flag simply disappear.....

We order 4-5 ppl (rogues too) go to looking for enemy carrier and he cant be found!

Me personally had checked this, nobody in 30 mins saw carrier, and when their flag was returned, they scored in 5 seconds....

The last time, 9 horde attack our carrier, leaving their carrier alone while 5 of us was looking for he, and nothing....

what happen?, because one thing is true... we arent blind.

Are you sure this is a bug? It has happened many times that the enemy carrier is "disappeared" and can't be found. Never has this been a bug abuse. I've had a team looking for the damn flag carrier for over 30 minutes, and we are not blind either. He's always been found behind some building or other place that can't be seen so obviously.

No, but you are a gnome. You know - kinda very very short. :) Sure you managed to look over the grass? *cough* Sorry, just had to.

Any idea who had the flag? You had no hunter to track the carrier down? Could this be the infamous "on top of the building" exploit? Heard it mentioned before. Not seen it myself though.

I've had it as well with an alliance having the flag in our base.. i couldn't mind him even though he was showing on my minimap (name and all).

theres a hiding place in the alliance base thats not using a bug but makes it very difficult for people to find you.

Also if people fall down through the floor the flag bugs and remains there for 30 minutes before auto returning, or something like that.

I recognize this scenario. If it is the round I think it is lets say we got you people suckered on that capture. We had to attack full man force on your flag carrier, since we where kind of outgunned on the level front. We had several sub level 60 present, 3 of them from my guild and we where not able to pierce your defence and keep a good defence ourselves. So our flag carrier was hidden on a spot far away from the flag room outside the horde building, out where you people where most likely not to look. Guess what, you did not look there. :p He went towards the flag room while we attacked your flag carrier since we where confident we would pull it off . We did, and we got a cap, the one and only but still a nice bonus for good effort.

Was a very fun and entertaining round despite the loss, we did our best and we did it well against an opponent superior in class combination and levels.

Alliance has fooled us with the same before, 45 minutes wasted, with us totally owning the alliance people. But fc nowhere to be found, guess what, he was hidden in a bush in the field. Guess we never though he was banana enough to hide it there, but he fooled us for sure.

I suggest we start saying "people" are using the exploits instead of "alliance" or "horde". Think it will make quite a difference somehow. As for the people who actually use the exploits, if I ever run into you on the battlegrounds, I will fraps your ass and report you to Blizzard. No idea if they have been used, attempted to be used or have never been used in the first place, but this is the way I see it. Exploiting is the worst kind of messing up a game for others.

Please don't.

why does fraps suck so much and make my PC laggy, when i am running on perfectly great specs to film on.

true, both are still played by humanoids (its true dont deny it)
but to be honest.. i think most alliance is too ignorant to know what
the exploits are let alone know how to get at these exploit locations.
and the other part of the alliance just wants a good challenge.

i have noticed this before as virux said. i asked rond not to do it
again and he appologised for it. he was near base
although nowhere in sight, after our flag dropped he jumped down into
the flag room out of nowhere.

There are two fairly good hiding spots near the horde building where you can hide. As some of the nasty alliance rogues have found out after looking half an hour. you need to find a good place to hide. Then move now and then when you're fairly sure none are looking.

Sometimes they catch you. Been quite a few times I've been cought in the open by finding a knife in my back =)
But often it pays off and you can hide for ever. They're sure they have looked here and there, and if you then hide there after they have looked. Great! ;)

This is why I loooove Track Humanoids. (And Track Beasts if a Hunter or Druid has it. Sometimes the hunter forget to dismiss his "Cat" before turning aspect of the beast. =D )

Well there is some know exploid at alliance side haven't seen it myslef since i had the flag and had to hide myself(no exploids whatsoever) used one one time won't do it again (didn't know it was considered exploid at that time since i never go to official forums). The exploid was kinda like they could attack it(the FC) but it could move and regen full health and not be targetted or attacked but still vissible.

And yeah you have to look good been on a stupid hiding spot for 45 min because other FC was at GY camping .. kinda fel asleep to be woken by 2 rogues that finnally found me.

There are some walls that you can hide in, where only the persons kneecap is visible. VERY annoying

Yeh it is pretty crap when some alliance people hide in the door frame, which leads to the balcony, i dont think it would be possible to find them without tracking, ohh well probablly gonna see hunters in there with aspect of the beast on now. :D
