A group of ex-guild members are trolling out guild puzzle. This includes dropping portals to portal us out of the puzzle, grabbing the hot eggs to lead the legendary drake away from the shrines and running ahead to get doors to close before we can portal stragglers past obstacles. How do we report this?

Not sure if there’s not a problem with guesting for guild missions. Sometimes you may not get rewards. We’ve had that happen in our guild a couple of times.

But getting to another server without guesting should work.

Also, if you spot their guild tag, talk to their guild leader. That is often a very effective way to get rid of these sorts of players.

Well, i’d say people has the ability to do what ever them want in this game. It’s not breaking game agreement for doing such of a thing in open public area. If your guild event is more organized, I don’t think this kind of thing would happen. Consider about yourself before blame the others.

How do they know which guild puzzle you’re doing — or even that you’re doing one at all — if they aren’t in your guild anymore? Is a current member still feeding them this information? Sorry, I know that isn’t the point, but if you can keep them out of the loop on your guild’s activities then wouldn’t it solve your problems?

That’s the problem, as I mentioned, you should not be able to control anyone’s action in public area of the game.
Image you are playing a wvw, and running for the map comp, and people killed you, now you want to report him because he did that action in a public area which allows that happen.

This is completely wrong. WvW is a place where the game instructs you to kill players. A better example was back in the beginning of the game, people figured out how to bug out certain skill points so no one could use them. Period. They were down until servers reset.

This is against the TOS of the game. It’s a bannable offense and anyone caught doing it SHOULD be banned. You’re not allowed to break the game because you want to have fun.

That’s what’s been happening in some guild puzzles. Guild Puzzles are cooperative not competitive. It’s how they were designed.

In another thread you complained about getting kicked out of a fractal. Why should you complain? Those people were doing what they wanted to do.

I think you don’t understand the situation. If one person makes the puzzle unfinishable by anyone, that person is breaking a rule and commiting a bannable offense PERIOD. It doesn’t matter if the person is doing it in a public area, or an instanced area. You’re not supposed to exploit anywhere, you’re not supposed to break the game anywhere.

A while ago, there was a bug that you could link something in chat and it would crash the client and Anet banned people for linking it. Obviously that was in a public area. It was still against the rules.

I don’t care if you think it makes sense or not. Do some research if you’re interested. If you do something that “breaks” the game, it’s a bannable offense. There’s really nothing to argue here.

It has nothing to do with being in a public area versus instanced area. Griefing is not “wrong” in a dungeon and “okay” in the open map. Furthermore, Vayne is not talking about preventing others from entering the guild puzzle, trying to play it themselves, or “controlling” the actions of others. He’s talking about disgruntled former guild members coming in and very specifically — and purposely — trying to sabotage their guild puzzle. This is called griefing, and should not be tolerated in the game.

I should clarify: when I asked “How do they know” you’re doing a guild puzzle, I was not implying that they innocently stumbled in there by mistake. They obviously know what they are doing, and are intentionally griefing their former guild. I was simply asking how they were able to find out the time and place to do such griefing, because determining that might cut off their ability to troll. I offered this comment as a treatment for a symptom, not a cure for the disease. Griefing other players should not be allowed, regardless of game mode, map, or personal vendettas.

If anything, being in a public, open-world area makes griefing more destructive. More people are involved, including potentially random other players who are not involved in these guild politics and just showed up to help out with the activity. There is no reason why it should be okay for a few trolls to intentionally sabotage a guild puzzle, or anything else.

The problems go deeper because it’s not an isolated incident. Today several guilds were doing Proxemics Lab and there was chain griefing going on. No one could finish it at all. That’s just not cool.

This is an internal guild matter and Anet probably will not get involved. The best thing to do is change the time you do guild puzzles and don’t announce it publicly. Hopefully you all have loyal members and these guildies don’t have friends inside the guild that will alert them to the time change. Also if they do do this again tell everyone involved to no react to them. Because this is just what they want to do is get the guilds attention and try to get you all angry. Because if you all get angry the they won and got a rise out of you.

If you have someone on your friendlist you can see where he is. So they don’t even have to check the puzzles. They just take a look at their friendlist and follow someone around whom they know of that he’s doing the guild-missions.

Mesmers put ports down to help guildies who don’t make the jumps. These people are instructed to stand together in one spot and wait for the port. If the griefer puts a port down where these people are waiting then of course they are going to take it.

I’m not usually one that calls for harsh measures against “griefing”, primarily because its so easy for people to call someone a griefer in this game because of differing play-styles and/or priorities. However in this case – their intentions are very clear. I would take screenshots and file a ticket on them.

There is a large difference between a griefer that is annoying people versus a griefer that is actually breaking a part of the game for people.
