Ensidia suspended for 72 Hours
As you can see from the link above, Ensidia got the world first kill on 25-man Arthas. Then, Blizzard promptly banned all accounts involved 72 hours and revoked the achievements and the loot. I may sound like a fanboy here, but in this case I do not think that Ensidia deserved the ban.
For anyone that does not know the details, apparently there was a bug in the encounter where the use of "siege damage" greatly minimized a mechanic in the encounter. Because this particular fight was NOT available on the PTR, how was anyone supposed to know that the fight was not working correctly? Even if they did notice some buggy mechanics, that's nothing out of the ordinary for a new boss fight.
The source of the "siege damage" was a rogue using Saronite Bombs. Now on MMO-Champion, you can see that the rogue did NOT use Saronite Bombs for this encounter only. It is an item that they use regularly. As a matter of fact, according to ElitistJerks, rogues have been using Saronite Bombs as part of their rotation for months.
I just wanted to put my opinion out there. Hopefully Ensidia still get the world first after their 72 hour ban (although I seriously doubt it).
