Because Zenimax didn't fix the way FCs work, just made them more difficult to obtain.

Patch is not here yet :P

don't forget you can repair camps

If you can do it to each faction (which you can because I have tested it), then its fair for all.... and THUS ... not an exploit.

because the huge monstrous gates are just decorations. they were not made to actually block certain paths and access points.

Look... ofc I am being cheeky, but until its changed you can place camps behind one of each faction gate until its changed.... until then enjoy the hilarity.

Well this is rather disappointing behaviour.
I would hope ZOS would actually take action against people doing things like this, but I won't hold my breath.

Functional system not breaking any game mechanics, so what should they take action against?

Indeed. Which is what frustrates people the most when it happens.
It's been something most of the community has been annoyed about since release, that while a gate is locked it's possible for enemy factions to be behind the gate screwing around and placing camps.
ZOS could easily stop this kind of behaviour from the game by stepping up and deeming something I doubt they intended an exploit, instead we have had several band-aids in attempts to alleviate the issue and deeming it a "grey area" than stand up and state it's not something intended and abuse will be punished.

Maybe I am wrong @ZOS_BrianWheeler and it's fully intended mechanic that a group can place camps behind a gate hours after it was closed in order to death-port their entire teams there.
Once there they can leave with the scroll or in the case tonight wait for moments before a score evaluation to pick the scroll up and lower the score count.

I'm fully aware that the AD players involved in this will be relishing in our annoyance, as that's the reason it's being done. I had started to gain a lot of respect for the guilds involved their organisation but it seems that their interest lies more in trolling than trying to create an enjoyable campaign for the entire community.

ok now we go arrius mine for oils before the nerf lets go ap arrius mine

As AD, I have to agree with this post. It might not be seen as an exploit but it's certainly not in the spirit of the competition. It's trolling plain & simple and I for one am not cool with it.
