I play a DH, not a Monk, so it's not 'my' method. And yes, my friend
did get banned for this. Up until yesterday, I thought Warden couldn't track stuff like this, but I guess Blizzard is stepping up their game. When you think about it, it's not really hard for Warden to keep track of things like rare drops, and put up a red flag if there are +10 yellows dropping from a single pack.
Anyway, I came here to warn you guys, but if you want to ignore me, that's cool, no skin off my back. I already made my millions from early AH flipping and glasscannon rushes through the later acts pre-SS nerf (been playing since day 1), so it's not like I'm super dependent on glitches to keep ahead. I've got so much gold I can pretty much buy anything I like, and I play for the fun of it, as my gear is pretty much BiS (at this point, anyway).
But if you prefer wearing your tinfoil hats instead of listening to words of reason, then by all means, do continue. Just don't be surprised when you get a notification from Blizz.
Paranoid much? Blizz has employees who monitor forums for these kind of things. They probably have people with access to the elite section as well. You really think they're not aware of this? Me or anyone else wanting to 'protect' this exploit doesn't mean jack shit, as it's already out. I'm giving it two days tops before this gets hotfixed. If you want to risk your account by abusing this, that's your prerogative, but please, be mature enough to realize that not everyone in the world wants to screw you over - sometimes, people really do something out of altruism.
