Well, Fudge went out of his way to kill my spirit, it was maul Vs maul. Killing my HOW would just make it a spirit killing war. With my lvl 30 fury druid if I'm dueling Fury Vs Fury then the HoW dieing is the risk you take no harm to foul. But for him to run and kill my HOW in a maul Vs maul duel that meant he had an intention of killing my HOW, I have always considered intentional killing of the spirit BM, I mean don't druids have it hard enough as it is?

I have never called BM Vs. any caster they can't help that and I don't blame them.

casters usually go out of their way to kill my sage, for example hdins charge into it often, or charge next to it and hammer it. it bugs me, but i dont think its bm

omg, if you say its bm your crazy, i mean it gives the other guy an advantage to attack you, why would it be bm?

If he is willing to sacrifice getting hit to kill your sage that is on him. It is definately not bm.

Let me just post the rules for Melee dueling:

edit the post, make it a poll. its clearly the only way to settle this life-altering matter.

to address your point roy, since it clearly says you're allowed to walk away to recast the spirit, i think its saying its allowed to be killed. its not really that clear just from that quote though.

To the contrary - spirits drift around, and if it gets to close to a zealer, the spirit's going to be killed. At that point, you would need to recast.

Melee dueling is supposed to be toe-to-toe, stand and click, see which character is stronger. It's not supposed to involve chasing down each other's spirits. I think Iowa's point is that since both chars use HoW, they should duel each other to determine which char is stronger. Running away from the melee (even if it's to target the spirit) defeats the purpose of a melee duel.

Of course, that's why I prefer Open dueling myself - I like the strategy of killing spirits, and I wouldn't hesitate to do so.
