Exploits and annoying stuff I found!

My friend and I love to dwang people and here is a few things I found that could dwang.

1) When a player is AFK for the skeleton king event, there is a pop up afterwards that asks if people want to continue without the afker. That pop-up does NOT TIME OUT. I used that to my convenience to clear level 4 of the dungeon for more experience. The poor 2 fellows that were not AFK thought it was bugged out and started flipping out. When I was done with clearing all the mobs I clicked ready and got summoned to the event, the 2 non-afkers were not in there though and missed out on the event.

2) Numpad

3) To get some superior items, we made new level 1 characters and went to kill the skeleton king. To do that, I would join a public game with my friend's level 1 character and he would automatically be eligible for the skeleton king quest. After he joined, I logged off my higher level character and get on my level 1 to have him invite me to the game. Then of course we both afkd in tristram spamming the poor guys to clear faster and abusing the numpad. It didn't seem to bother them nor did they even notice we were running for our lives nonstop during the encounter.

I have to admit, it's pretty hard to grief people in this beta so you guys have done a pretty good job! I hope more content is coming soon so I can sniff out potential trollfest scenarios before final version of D3 ships out :D

One bug per thread please.

Also, Public Games are currently pretty broken. Almost everyone is getting to a game with the Skeleton King because of how limited the Beta is. This is not so much an "exploit" so much as most people in the Beta at are the Skeleton King so your level 1 gets to go to it.
