Problem
In the most recent class wars, I did everything I could to buff up my character. I drank level five potions, used scrolls, adjusted astros, even activated a one hour VIP card I had been holding since Christmas so I could use the panda. I got my battle rating up to a respectable 69K. I participated in class wars and did not make top 100. Though it was disappointing, I was not surprised. That was until I saw who had made the top 100 from my server. A player with almost 20K LESS BR!!
I did some inquiring as to how that was even possible. I found that the tactic was simple: CHEAT.
The cheat is rather simple: strip off all your gear, then go AFK for the first three to five fights. This will give you a much easier fight in the later rounds which are worth more points.
If this sounds familiar to you then you probably remember the scandal in the last Olympics when this was attempted. (See article here.)
Solution
A simple two pronged fix can easily block this cheat. Upon entering the class war you are given a notice to have everything ready, (just like in the the spire). Then once in, your backpack is locked for the duration of class wars. If you leave the CW ready room a penalty should be applied which is loss of all points and a ten minute delay to return to CW, (similar to battlegrounds).
NOTE:refreshing or a relogin should put you back in CW with NO penalties, (again like spire and battlegrounds).
Pros
This will truly allow us to see who is the best of each class and reward hard work and preparation.
Cons
This will highly irritate those who will say its not cheating, just strategy.

I will also include a poll for you to easily weigh in with your opinion.
