That, i agree with. If you know the drop pattern, you should keep it to yourself.

Btw, what's to stop people from putting the drops down in a text file from the last drop thread and figuring it out that way?

Nothing wrong with, just like Tay and Oz got their frosts. But again, it is different than to advertise the pattern.

The Last Drop Thread won't be able to give you a precise drop pattern because sometimes the correct drop is not posted at the right time. Sometimes a drop is missed and won't give you the right pattern.

Althought, one drop doesn't really make a difference all that much as long as it's not a rare. There's nothing to stop people from using that.

well, if its removed, that will be a major dissappointment to some players, but as long as the drop thread remains, and is active, the pattern can still be read, deciphered and sought easily.

As many people already stated, you can keep the drop pattern to yourself and not advertise it. I believe it is correct and should be followed appropriately. Are there any consequences for breaking this rule?

Remove the pattern from Brutal's site, and take care of any site/person who will continue to advertise it.

People can still write a drop pattern for themselves, I don't really agree with this whole "drop = cheat" thing because it's only drops. It takes people forever to gain a good drop. If they have the system then it will make it easier for them, but I don't really play for drops and don't play on greys so I don't really care. I'm sure a lot of greys and gold members will be pissed.

you sound as if its illegal to advertise the pattern, or host it anywhere. this is only a game, and something as silly as a dicussion as this is quite ridiculous.

According to the current "head" of the ingame moderators, it IS in fact illegal to advertise the pattern.
