Guild Wars 2

Players begging for donations for their “first” legendaries or other expensive items on LFG are getting more frequent and annoying.

I know from this post :
> https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Policy-on-the-LFG-Tool/first#post4769551 > that “Players may use the tool to sell a spot in a group, but they may not use it to sell or trade items or for any other unintended purposes. Doing so will result in an account infraction.”
But would this count in for beggars too?

And also, I’d wish there should be “info section” or something similar added to lfg that would state the previous quote because as it seems not many know about that rule and thus keep still filling the lfg with “selling x precursor/legendary for x gold”

Yes, it means you can’t beg for money on the LFG as the purpose of the LFG is to make a group to do content. They should be reported. Most of them are undoubtably scamming.

No it’s not ok to beg on the LFG.. but then again I am not convinced reporting them does anything anyway.

There is a certain individual that is always in Divinity begging for random amounts of coin as well as posting on the LFG.. when someone makes comment he map shifts to LA repeats then hops back.
I have reported him countless times over the last few weeks, but nothing changes.
I would take a stab he’s probably scav in RL as well

That rpg factor, gotta have beggars !

you can right click the lfg spot and click report to bring up the report window, there’s an option there for inappropriate lfg system use

Here is what I do.
When you see the beggar, add him to your friend’s list and look at his APs. I did this last week with a beggar who said the money was to buy his first Exotic, he had 13,000 APs.
You can see who the lairs are real quick. Just report, block and move on.
