Then try it in the game and be creative. If you expect me to post exploits
here, then sorry, that's not going to happen. It is meaningless to me
whether you personally think I am "bullshit rumour-mongering", and you
don't have to believe me. When/if Blizzard fixes this, I'll post the
details, not before.

If everyone says 'g' everyone rolls.

If everyone says 'n' everyone rolls.

Without the "bug" being known, it WON'T GET FIXED, thus allowing those
folks who know about it to abuse it for a lengthy period of time.

I'm guessing this is your first MMOG. Always in the past, rapid and
widespread publication of an abuse has lead to that abuse being almost
immediately fixed. Plus, it allows for potential victims of the abuse to be
aware of it beforehand, making it more difficult to pull off, not less.
