Q: Is fighting from a roof in the frontier considered an exploit or not?
A: I just love these (it depends) answers (not), but until we have a code solution, our CSRs are in the extremely uncomfortable position of having to judge each (roofer) on a case by case basis.
Basically, I would recommend no one fight from a roof. Doing so is a quick and easy way to get a reputation as an exploiter, and to invite scrutiny from our staff. For those of you who do not mind a reputation, here's a quick and dirty way to tell if you're exploiting: If you cannot be targeted, hit, or if you can only be hit by one type of attack, you're exploiting. Get down.
For those of you who do not appreciate sharing server space with these creatures, here's how to tell if you should /appeal someone and get an investigation going: Get an archer, a distance caster, and a point blank caster. If only one or none of you can hit the roofer, he's exploiting. Appeal him. And even if he's gone before the CSR arrives, don't sweat it too much, because the fine fellow is now on our watch list.
I know that's not a very satisfactory answer, and we're working on better solutions, but it's what we do at this time.
