Blizzard not protecting their players from harassment

Community General Discussion

Do you roleplay with a specific group? Like a guild or a Discord crew or something along those lines?

If you do, a crappy but effective solution to your issue might be to create a copy of a character on an empty non-RP realm and invite your RP partners over to phase out of Argent Dawn. Either do it yourself or (safer option) volunteer a friend for it. It sucks because you should not be forced to avoid your own damn realm, but at least you would be able to get some RP without interruptions while the ticket is stuck in limbo…

Since you are 70 can you go to a zone where the mobs will be over leveled for him? im pretty sure a 20 wont do too well in valdrakken?

109

No, I am just roaming around various hubs trying to make friends to be honest.

In theory I could do this, but it’s kind of hard to stumble into some roleplay in Valdrakken, that means I will have to plan it out with a set group.

Most of the time, yes.

And we can be friends for sure i love msking friends in a game where we have toxic players

113

Oh, there are definitely enough strange people online, especially in WoW that would do this.

Wasn’t there a story once that some parents hired other WoW players to ruin their sons time in the game?

114

yea, I remember something about that.

so its the parents that are stalking TĂźriel and his girlfriend :dracthyr_hehe_animated:

115

Or its a real stalker. Or perhaps even worse.

116

that doesn´t make sense though. this one dude stalking more than one player?

117

Mentally sick people don’t necessarily follow generic logic.

No MVPs have no special rights to the forums, the only difference is that our posts appear in green. We can only reach TL3 like any other poster.

I have no idea why you would think an MVP would have an issue with you.

He is definitely real, he is even known to send various screenshots to people if they open a chat with him.

122

Just a gentle reminder that you can’t name and shame on the forums. Best to edit out any names people have shared.

by doing that you run the risk of getting yourself banned just a friendly warning as it counts as abusing the system.

Sadly, but reports seems not doing much even on RP server.
On Argent-Dawn there is very dedicated troll-harasser and attention-seeking person in Stormwind area, ones, who from Argent-Dawn may know who i talking about, but since that person is obviously doing that for attention, i won’t name them.

This person doing all stuff like spamming toys, “inviting” themself in middle of conversation, being obnoxious, trying to slander normal RP players and when naive, new player talking to them, eventually this harasser doing whole spectrum of emotional abuse on them and guiltrip new players into giving them attention.

There is a lot of evidence of such behaviour from that person. huge amount players simply ignore that player, which allows them to freely pray on new players. This is so scary, i felt victim of that harasser once, i’ve reported them in game but they still terrorises our RP community.

But since there is no punishment for such behaviour, stalkers and harassers got free pass on such behaviour.

MMO-games is always was place for sociopaths-weirdos which that person clearly showed me on their own example.
And, again, this is scares me so much!

Just go after his us account i can tell you his name on Discord

Yes, this is the main problems, the report function ingame just does not work, I am not sure how many hundreds of reports you need before the automated system kicks in, but it has to be a lot. And whenever a ticket is submitted, the GM just says the same, they will look into it (which they don’t) and that we need to use the report function inside of the game, which probably is not even connected to anything at the other side. It’s just a report flying into the void.
