The WoW professional guild Limit is running out of players. The developers have banned too many players due to dubious dealings.
Currently, the race for the First Kill of Kil’Jaeden on Mythic difficulty in the Tomb of Sargeras is still ongoing in World of Warcraft. While Method and Exorsus are battling it out to see who will be the first to bring Kil’jaeden down on the planet Argus, another professional guild is throwing in the towel.
Limit is now sitting back and “enjoying” the race from a spectator’s perspective. The professional guild is no longer getting enough players into the raid to make real progress. The reason is not that the players have lost interest – rather, a large part has been banned.
Banned for Account Sharing and Real Money Services
Many members of Limit have violated the terms of service by carrying other players through raids for real money. They also bought second accounts to be able to progress with multiple characters – account sharing has also been a factor.
Some streamers are now complaining that Blizzard is intentionally slowing down certain guilds and favoring others. According to streamer Asmongold, it is an “open secret” that all professional guilds sell raid runs to earn a bit. He finds it unfair that one guild is punished so harshly while others are apparently “let off the hook”.
There is a certain irony in the fact that a guild in ToS (Tomb of Sargeras) cannot raid further because it violated the ToS (Terms of Service) of the game. It seems Limit has indeed reached its limit.
What do you think of Blizzard’s approach? Good thing to crack down so hard? Or should they also act against everyone at the same time?
