My thoughts on player bans

Hello everyone I think its pretty low to report people. Otm has a hard enough time coming up with fresh ideas for ch. They need to be concentrating their time on cool new idea. Look at the past 3 events everything just repeats and they change the name on the chest, fashion, and other things. During my ch experience I've only reported 1 person when I thought he hacked an account. Turns out I was wrong. If you can't beat someone at a game just play the game smarter. If you hate their existence and hate her/his heart simply for beating find another game to play. Even when awake was the top dog no matter what was done to me I never reported anyone. If someone kills you in arena don't take it personal just leave, and maybe stay out. So I won't say anything that may hinder the process. Only scammers deserve to have accounts banned.

I think bans are like a lot of things in life...it isn't really the last crime that gets you banned...its all the stuff leading up to it. Like people are rarely fired the first time they do anything and often are fired more for what the employer can get them on vs what they were actually doing.

So Im pretty sure that few, if any, players are reporting on a person for one (or even many) arena encounters.

If you are the type of player that gets off on upsetting people then a point will come when the others players are sick of it and will turn to things like reporting. I can state for a fact that in this case many...many (many) other methods were tried. Ignoring, begging, beating, avoiding...comes a point where you just have to call the police.

I think its important to contrast what happened in this (1) case with every other pvp arena king on ros. There are a number of people who PVP the tar out of noobs etc...they don't get reported or banned so something about this case must be more 'excessive' in terms of TOS violations.

:D

also wanted to add...ive had some damned rude (but FUNNY) things said to me and God knows I've said my share of rude to others. Would hate to see anyone banned just for that...although I'm aware that most of it does violate the TOS in some way

TONGUE PUNCH!

I see your point, but we cant ignore that this is a game and exile as strong as his game character is, is still a kid with fired up emotions. think back teenage year, well we all just played ball in my days but still was confrontational, I try to see it like that, the game has an awesome block button that could have solved it.

I am aware that this would destroy the PVP but maybe we should be allowed to block players period...block attacks...verbal...messages etc...now THAT would solve the problem.
