are 180 min 191 max acklay bones considered "illegal"?

serious question, please only reply if it's on topic

holocron states:

only abnormal diferences between min-max damage r buggy.

It also states that the problem was only in the first days of the dungeon and meanwhile fixed.

hit ctrl-h, search for acklay bones

reason i ask is... im the weaponsmith for my PA on the chilastra server. i recently made a stun baton for 1 of our fencers using these bones, after a pretty poor damage slice, the max damage of the weapon was 338 without a p/up.

a particularly loud mouthed and self obsessed player on chilastra, by the name of huntin, was taught a lesson in the finer arts of fencing by our guy using this weapon. he was being hit for over 1k damage at a time, which when you take into consideration the damage multipler for 1handhit3, the multiplier for a kd opponent, the reduction for pvp, and the max damage of the weapon, 1k damage is well within reason.

after the "schooling", the victim went crying to a csr about it being an exploited weapon using illegal bones. a CSR then nerfed the max damage of the weapon by 4 points (yes, 4 points, which in itself seems very pointless).

obviously as the creator of the weapon, this has annoyed me greatly, firstly that cry baby whiners are listened to on a whim like that, and secondly because the CSR in question wouldnt know game mechanics if they slapped him in the face
