Blacklisting

Fast question for the iOS guys: Do any of you guys have inter-clan alliances that allow you to police your servers by blacklisting rude or disruptive players? For instance, a low level player disrupts your ability lix in stonevale, is asked politely to wait until your lix ends, but they give you the finger and do it anyhow because they think there are no consequences? How someone behaves when they think there are no consequences to their actions is usually a good measure of their personality. Do any servers have a working model of a blacklist?

I'm on android, actually. I just know the iOS servers have been around longer and have solved some of the issues we are dealing with.

He's from donn, actually. That's why he said 'for the IOS guys'.

Now to actually answering the question :lol:, in epona, we just agree between clans to not group someone and ignore their roll at raids. Hasn't happened in a long time, though.

That works too. Thanks. Most of us use voxer on donn so we might just maintain a list on there since we can post screenshots there as well. We've been letting these pests run out of control for too long now.

So these people ruin your ability lix so you blacklist them?

Not at all. New players will inevitably make this mistake. However, when we ask them politely to wait until our lix expires and they tell us to **** off and act like total idiots there need to be consequences. This game requires that you be a team player in order to get geared. Some folks have no business playing an mmo. Most players are very understanding once you explain to them what you are doing. Some, however, could care less about wasting other people's money. We also get a lot of scammers and a blacklist would help ensure that those are tracked as well.

Our servers are still fairly small and we only have two clans doing dl/edl bosses on donn. Keeping these players from advancing to the endgame will be a simple task for us.

Last night I was training on stonevale druids when a level 115 archer (he was not lixing and was too high level to get experience from the mobs) starts killing my mobs. He decides he's going to camp there for a few hours after I asked him nicely to stop. He got quite nasty with me. I have no intention of getting into a shouting contest with an idiot so I moved to the purple ghosts in OW and lixed there. Three hours later, true to his word, he was still camped there. Lol. I hope they drop yellow crowns for him.

Let's be honest, ability lixs do not cost a lot, 500 gold a lix? Some noob runs up and kills mobs because he thinks it's funny/he wants to level. I don't think there's any reason to blacklist those newer players, it sets a bad example for the clan keeping the blacklist

To me, it's not the ability lix that matters, it's the time that it takes to make your mobs spawn. It takes forever to get three or four 3* unicorns to spawn. When some noob kills them, it's irritating because I know I'll have to spend the next hour getting another group of 3* unicorns to spawn.
