Possible crash exploit/bug/glitch?

Hello all, first post on these forums.

First off I want to say that I have no absolute information on this and did not take screenshots often enough but just 5 minutes ago I was in round 3 of a spvp tournament with a pug team. Everyone but I crashed at the same time as soon as the match started. Moments later the enemy were kinda quick on saying “oh sorry to see that happened… sux :(” so it seemed pretty suspicious. I have a hunch they have done it purpose but I have zero proof and the crash-to-desktop left my teammates no error message due to how GW2’s popups work… if you crash and a popup comes up, any button press will make it go away and then they’re looking at their desktop screen. Thus, none of us had our error messages saved.

I have no idea if it will help at all but I uploaded a picture of their team. Perhaps others have similar experiences with these people?

Hi everybody.

Zachariel is right (the “exploit” has one extra -s though ). The forums are not the best place for this. We are encouraging the players that see episodes of hacking/exploiting to send a report to the following email address, [email protected], where the issue will be looked into by the security team.

Thanks!
