In 2010-2011 people would frequently alt d their explorer against me, I never found it 'gamebreaking' or unfun or unfair. I find losing the explorer by bad luck pretty gamebreaking too to be honest.
That wasn’t acceptable then. You were just playing in a rank where it didn’t matter what was acceptable. I don’t know when I played in the pk tournament vs nagayumi but he can be seen appologizing for alt-ding his iro watchief just before resigning. It was an accident there. And it has been disallowed ever since it’s discovery.
That doesn’t mean black star and others wouldn’t do shit like that in team games and other settings. How can you stop someone from doing it in a non tournament game?
Well even long before PKClan tournaments were a thing. I wasn't that bad and definitely way above rankings were nowadays alt d is considered cheating. So it was in practice mostly allowed or tolerated.
