Thank you for taking your time with this Chris. I did not want to go into specifics on my original post, but since you mentioned it, yes, that was on Baruch Bay. I'm glad you could detect this case from pattern observing, I wasn't aware of this possibility. I don't know what actions you took, but they definitely had a positive impact. So far at least, on the new MU this week I'm not seeing this kind of behavior on the squads I've been in. So thanks again for looking into this, I really appreciate it.

Baruch Bay (and I'm concerned about another two servers more) still have griefers/trolls acting like this. And we all know who I mean. Actions need to be addressed for stopping this kind of attitudes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One single guy can ruin the whole experience for a full 50 man squad. > To sum up, what he mainly does is: > Spam siege on our mesmer portals, making very difficult to take them for surprise attacks. > Spam siege on our downed, so we can't ress them. > Spam the wrong siege type on doors, walls, etc, usually triggering the siege cap, making it impossible to effectively attack any structure. > This also discourages fights, since when we group in open field to prepare for combat he also spams siege then, and the enemies refuse to engage... > He even went as far as to create two guilds with names almost identical to known WvW guilds in the server, with the same tag, to make things more confusing. > If it's who I think it is, unless there's several of these trolls around -- this guy was suspended twice for a few months, and ONLY after reporting through the website. In-game reports never did anything. Each time he was suspended, I received notes to use the in-game reporting method. I told the Mod that it didn't work, and the website reporting actually did, and the Mod just reiterated that it's the best way. SMH Anyways --- I hope there's a 3-strike rule, I have no idea why he doesn't get perma-banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kovu.7560 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 So, in point of order... When assaulting a wall with catapults at fairly close range I often throw a bunch of garbage siege build site blueprints up on the wall so enemy casters or AC users have more difficulty targeting our catapults with aoes, unless they're right on the edge of the wall. (I don't think it actually hinders their targeting, but it does make it visually more difficult.) Am I going to be warned for siege trolling if I continue to do this? ~ Kovu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buy Some Apples.6390 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 I think this is why all siege should have another icon to show which player dropped that siege print. This way everyone can see the name clearly just by clicking the siege, rather than having to keep a sharp eye open for that one troll in your zerg group. It would also act as a deterrent and they cannot then deny they didnt throw the siege as their name would be on it! I think what the mod doesnt realise is that even if they only do it on one night, thats the entire night's WvW ruined for dozens of players just because of one player. So end of the day, nothing will be done and we have to live with it for the day, or week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like they do get that. @"Chris Cleary.8017" wrote > A single instance of someone tossing down a few crummy sieges isn't something that is entirely malicious, continually doing so as your main objective is. "a few" isn't "pattern trolling; doing it the whole night is /report it, send mail to exploits@arena.net so they can take a look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
