I think this is actually an exploit tbh...Just like throwing the ball to a person on their platform kills him..

Pulling people who are about to score outside of the playing field, where they get killed instantly, isn't fair. If it was a regular warzone where people have no reason to get near the other team's spawn, it would be fine. After all they don't HAVE to camp the other team's spawn. Here you need to carry the ball across the line. I'm disgusted with Bioware if they're ok with this tactic. But I guess they're ok with alot more glitches they have in their game as well, including the spawncamping orgy in Ilum that other day.

I think this about sums it up. There is a very small window you can do this in

Yes, I'm pretty certain by now that they keep a good eye out for me when my name pops up in Huttball. I get some nasty tells after Repub vs. Repub Huttballs sometimes, too

Its really neither and more like a bug. In a perfect world it would count as a goal even if the ball carrier dies when he lands.

This. Tip. Have someone else pull that dude off the ledge before you try to score, or just CC them.

Just throw the ball at them; It kills them instantly. I don't see why so many people are complaining about this, it goes both ways? It's just another game mechanic you have to be aware of.

I already described what some of those solutions are in a prior post of mine in this very thread. Whether people choose to use those solutions, or not, is really up to them. But that really amounts to how much they want to rely on BW to PvP for them, or be intuitive on their own.
