What I meant with a little more text :
Quote:
The last problem is the bug list : for some, it's to show that it's not to be exploited, and others, it's a tool that is used to show what combos should be abused before the next patch comes. Again, the same communities clash : it's not about min-maxer, not roleplaying. It's about what you believe is the limit of what should be used in a game. Some believe that everything that currently is in the game is 'fair game', and the other one believes that everything on the bug list should be treated as if it were already out of the game. You can still be a min-maxer or a roleplayer in either case. The problem, and the clash comes when the first community uses one thing on the bug list on a player from the second community, because it gives him an advantage that he cannot countered.

EDIT :
The reason I'm from the second community is :
A game is not my game. It's something that comes out of the imagination of someone or a group of people, and that they decide to put at our disposal to let us have fun (and for them to make money). I therefore think it is a show of respect for them to play the game as they intend it to be. Some of what min-maxing finds out may not have been predicted, that's the reason people should ask devs whether a "feature" that seems unintended is a bug or not.
Once the decision is made (there goes definition of a bug again), if it is decided to be a bug, I will therefore not use it I know of it, to respect the game creator's wish about the game until it's corrected.
