Just a quick question - if there is a player being antisocial and causing grief to some other players in the game, what can we do about it? I don't usually get a reply with /callgm

GMs can't be online 24/7, so I guess a screenshot sent by PM is a good way to back up your claim.

Tell the player that if they press Alt + F4 then you won't tell the game staff. *Fingers crossed he's stupid*

CAUTION: Do not trust Ragadas, people told me to do that and I got a virus or something because my game crashed.

I was playing in Albion in Tombs of Mithra one day.
Entrance is usualy safe.
A high Level Minstrel came, went down and pulled the highest Mob of the Dungeon to the entrance, where he confused them and let them attack and kill the low level players and the afk people.

I tried to reach a GM and filed a report, but i never got an answer.
Reporting is a waste of time is my conclusion.

And what you want? If GMs will start bann people for greykilling and pull mobs, all server will be banned in 1 week.

@Gerbald

When did that happen? Do you have a name? Please write a PM to me and i will take a look.

Camulos

vangonaj, you did not understand and i do not bother to explain.

And Camulos, it was when my Paladin was level 8, now he is 49, so i really don't remember the name anymore.
What caught me by surprise was, that it was possible at all, that you can get Mobs to attack people from your own realm.
I think thats a bug.

Whatever, i was a bit frustrated, that no GM showed up after i /calledGM and i was never contacted later by anyone about this.
I reported the name at that time.
So neither the behaviour, nor the possible bug seemed to interest anyone from the staff and i decided not to waste time again trying to report harassment or bugs.

Yes sorry. Should be a bug.

Nymeros, it was a joke ... and Alt + F4 doesn't install any virus .. LOL. Alt + F4 closes the window. Not sure if it works on DAoC but if you do it in most applications (on Windows), it closes the window. Not a virus hahaha.

I guess he should have hung up a big "Irony inside" sign for you Ragadas

Confusion should only work inside your group afaik.

Gerbald, this is not live, you can't expect staff to be there 24/7 and you can't expect staff to show up investigating every single /callgm

do you know how many of the so called "griefers" there is?

if staff had to show up for every single /callgm asking around with: "hey did this guy do that and that and did you fraps / SS it?" they wouldn't be doing ANYTHING else, and tbh id rather have them deal with current callgms than old callgms

maybe you should try another time and do /callgm (and do it right - because doing a bad /callgm can as well result in no responce) next time there is someone harassing you

believe me, they are there to help you 90% of the time


and not reporting bugs... well im just sad to see that players really think bugs/etc just gets ignored, because they dont

I guessed I missed the Irony Sign :[ my fault for hijacking the thread with crap banter :p

Alt F4 does not work on DAOC either.
