My main is a level 60 druid on Durotan. Unfortunately, we hardly ever have AV games on our server, although it is high population; however, through coordination between the Horde and the Alliance on the forums and such, we are able to start a game a couple of times a week, usually on weekends and evenings where alot of people happen to be around.
Tonight, I see that an AV game is up and I rejoice: maybe I can eventually get that ram mount afterall! But alas, it turns out that two of the largest guilds on our server, Arisen on the Horde and Ebon Order on Alliance are farming rep with each other. They're coordinating to simply kill and loot each other and turn in and such in order to power level their guild's rep instead of actually playing the game, and excluding the few people who got into their game and weren't in their guild.
The fact that members of these guilds were blatantly cheating to farm reputation pisses me off, to be sure, but what really gets me is the fact that they ruined the game for the few other people that got in the game and for the majority of players that wanted in. On a PvE server where an AV game only makes once in a blue moon, cooperative guild farming like this really ruins PvP for a ton of people.
Check out the Durotan forums for some interesting quotes from some of those involved...but in the end, I'm afraid they're right: Blizz probably won't do much to punish this specific case. Still, I believe that this sort of thing will be weeded out soon. I know Blizzard doesn't want jerks like these ruining our game >_<
