[Exploit] DC macro / alt-f4 during boss encounter #8489

My guildmates are abusing this and I know many people who also do this. You don't even ban for it when it's the exact case of breaking your ToS. image

Current behaviour: During raid encounters you can alt f4 or use dc macro "/run for i=1,600 do DoEmote("sit") end" to get out of combat and not die. Your ingame character disappears instantly from the game.

What this affects overall:

  1. You don't lose consumambles = economy is affected cause ppl don't need to refill their consumambles for each raid (food/elixirs etc.).
  2. It allows to skip trash packs, since you won't be walking back from Graveyard anyway, so why bother killing trash which aren't in boss room or aren't pulled with him when you start the encounter.
  3. Soulstones and reincarnation aren't used as wipe recovery tools anymore, which gives an advantage during encounter since you have more ways to get back lost people on their feet.
  4. You don't die = you don't use gold to repair gear.

Edit: I also heard it affects some encounters like Magtheridon adds. You use it to bug adds, which makes them stop attacking/casting etc. making phase 1 trivial.

Expected behaviour: Your character should be left in game for around 1 to 2 minutes to get back online if your game 'crashed' or your connection got severed allowing boss / trash to kill your character during this time.
