As an FYI, LSMate was jailed for soloing Feue using the standard pinning method. I'm not sure if he popped while another LS was gathering or what, but LS watching him called a GM. Not going to post full logs because I don't have his permission, but the GM said this:
[20:02:12][GM]Deitsu : I am afraid we witness the fact, where you were using a path finding exploit.
[20:02:37][GM]Deitsu : Unfortunately for you, using a bug exploit in the game is a violation as it is not allowed.
[20:08:51][GM]Deitsu : For using a bug exploit in order to defeat a monser, you will be issued a Caution.
[20:09:19][GM]Deitsu : Please, remember that any other violation would result in a more severe sanction.
edit: edited out fence, since he was in Xarc darrrrr, but was using standard pinning around the set of 3 trees.
Wtf. How is this any different than many of the kiting techniques that allow you to avoid getting hit completely. FFS SE
What's your sig from?
you've gotta remember that this happened with the wall-of-justice. all it takes is one pissy player to dick another over. if not an emergency maintenance, expect all VNMs to have draw-in with the next update.

Some shitty drama over Kirin(lol).
Any other reports of GMs issuing warnings over soloing VNMs with pinning?
Yes, because your wasted time waiting for someone to solo something outweighs the benefit of everyone who is killing these NMs without having to gather a group of people.
I have nothing against people solo/duoing mobs or the time involved. Seeing mouthbreathing idiots who don't own PDT, MDT, or idle sets and nuke in NQ errant solo things they have no business soloing mobs that were meant to be anti-solo is ridiculous.
I solo/dualbox them myself, and have done so without pinning on 9/10 T2s, no skin off my ass. It's just irritating that pinning takes the gear/game knowledge requirement out of soloing and lets any idiot with bio2 kill anything.
It's true though...for the most part, anyone can bio2/3 anything to 0% with ease.
This reeks of umad. I am sorry Thorny, I normally agree with you but this is just excessive. This game has always been easy. Finding the easiest way of doing something is what pretty much everyone in the game tries to do. Just because some nab can kill a monster without all the gear you have because of something that has been in the game forever doesn't mean you should get butthurt. This game is too easy to worry about stupid shit like that.
Thorny will always try to shit on people he doesn't feel are as good as he is.
See it from his angle:
He is so 'skilled' he is able to do it dual boxing as he supposedly claims.
Someone finds a way to do it easier solo and he feels like a moron.
