Wanna provide your source that "the designer of Urgoz's Warren" himself said it was by design? --Karlos 01:07, 19 June 2006 (CDT)

Unfortunately, no.

I was told this by Jon Peters (IGN, as well as I believe real name) the day after release of Factions. Due to my guild's early success in Altrumm Ruins, we had control over House Zu Heltzer the entire time. He was not in my guild, and claimed to be a dev, specifically the one who had designed Urgoz's Warren. I questioned some of my friends, alpha and beta testers, as well as a couple of former employee's of ANet, who confirmed he did indeed work for ANet.

I questioned him, and was able to learn a little about the Warren, and have tried to make GWiki reflect that, but a few of the minor points have been overriden before (this one in particular). If you need more proof, contact me ingame (Righteous Theory) and I will try to scrounge up evidence to your satisfaction.


 * I do not question your truthfulness, however, you do realize that it goes against everything we hold sacred here in the wiki. "Heard from a friend who.. Heard it from a friend who.. Heard it from another that it's not a bug" is by design something we really try to discourage. Your source are the words of another, this other proclaims to be THE designer of Urgoz's Warren, but your sources only confirm that he does "works" for ANet. This, in and of itself, sounds very shaky.
 * There IS a "Jon Peters" in ArenaNet's design team (see here). I am not sure however if the guy you met is Jon Peters. Just to prove my point, I made a character named after the next Game Designer in tha list, Eric flannum:

 * The reason that I believe it's a bug is because in order for the trick to work, a player has to "rebirth" the dead ally under the bridge, taking advantage of the "under bridges bug" and the guy actually gets rezzed on top of the bridge. This is not only based on a bug (that rebirth would misplace the guy), but it's extremely counter intuitive. So, I am going by observation.
 * I am not sure how you can prove this Jon Peters in-game char is an ANet dev. Can he use the GM text in front of you or something? --Karlos 16:06, 19 June 2006 (CDT)
