I lol'd as I saw the assembly line of AB run from the campfire and jump over the cliff to two TT players just below. All from the same guild as well...
At least it is a turn around. I got slaughtered by the TTs in Ebonfrost on Wednesday night. 13 - 2 in the zone. The AB CW with me was pure PVE and inexperienced as he was melted by a lone GWF in a rotation and he never tried to dodge. Then I ran for my life with about 6 or 7 red folks after me. Died. Came back. Died. Came back. Etc, etc. Two of the GWFs that killed me had amassed over 30 kills between them without a single death.
PSA: You don't need to grind Spinward Rise for your Elemental artifact main hand if you have some AD lying around. You can craft it via the Tyranny of Dragon's campaign screen.

...but, at least you are doing it "legit". Yet, it was your decision to be farmed in the end. Here is the difference:
These two guys (TT faction) were using characters from their same guild to run an assembly line for kills. I am not sure if they were botting or what. When the 4 AB guys died, they rezzed and ran in the same path from the campfire to the TT guys. We (me and two other guildies) could stop the assembly line right before they jumped off the edge and kill them without issue (at least a couple times). Still, once we stopped the assembly line, somebody must have jumped on to controls of the AB guys because the fight was different. I dunno, but it was funny, strange, and sad at the same time.
The two TT guys massed 81-3 and 82-8 records when I checked out the board. While I can't say 100% of it was from fight clubbing, you can figure it had quite a bit to do with the stats. I also don't know how long they had been doing this either.
I never get the point of this, everyone qqs for a leaderboard, and more pvp content, why ? To add some acknowledgement for their pvp skills and builds. Then what happens..? The same fools exploit it and achieve the pvp honours in a completely underhand manner. Devaluing the very thing they are striving to accomplish.

We had the same issue years ago in Star Wars Galaxies with the Jedi Ranking System. Since Jedi was very rare in the game, people formed a fight club to help them go up in the rankings. Eventually, the devs found out it was being abused and decided to close the ranking system.

You can...
I recorded it, so I could get a chuckle. Two people with 80 plus kills in the zone.
Way to go!!!
WTB Class Reroll please
I'd suggest the respawn point/campfire adjacent to pvp zone be removed so it is harder for these scums to abuse it.

Of course...
Think really hard and you might be able to figure it out on your own.
