BGs need this one thing removed

Greetings,
I would like to address shop AH bots and Banks being able to spawn in battlegrounds.
This creates unnecessary clutter and makes it hard to target players while pvping as if its a bank kodo running around with lets say a gnome. It's frustrating to try and click or cycle through tab to get the target right and even with target frames it makes it unnecessarily cluttered.
I'm not sure if they are spawn-able inside ( i don't own any ) or if the person was able to just join the battleground with it being already spawned but i think this should be a removed feature for fairness. It kinda gives a pay to win advantage if you can have an extra mob covering you among the fights.
Thank you.

I agree. I also think (probably a unpopular opinion) that those animal forms are overly P2W. there was this one guy, he was a twink, and he was running around in what I think what an illusion he paid for in the store as a fox. noone ever killed him first cause he looks like a hunters pet, and in this bg, there was like 4 other enemy hunters all sending their pets around, so the guy that looked like a fox, went undetected. he was just another hunters pet to our eyes.
its really disheartening when theres P2W elements in the game, because as a free to play player, it shows where the devs heads are at. they want money > fairness. in a PVP mode, Fairness should get priority more than anything.
im all for illusions for PVE, but PVP is a little over the top. if the devs could remove them from PVP that would be an astronomical boost to the fairness in the battlegrounds. thank you.

There is no fox illusion, Id guess it was a GM turning into cats and foxes in the city and he joined a BG with it on. I was turning to Cat the other day randomly and the GM whispered me just goofing around.

Illusions do not work in BGs. I have the worgen one, it drops and cannot be reapplied the moment I zone in.
..also your team should have figured that out really quickly, hunter pets and people are pretty clearly different.
