Hey there, I have encountered one player frequently in the mists who regularly (he claims 90%) sits in his base and throws insults at his teammates instead of participating in the RANKED match. It has happened multiple times… to guildies, my brother, and myself. We have all reported him numerous times. Is there a step I can take beyond the in-game reports? I have a screen shot of my conversation with this player… Is there somewhere I can take it to make sure ranked matches are not plagued with this poison? (attached is our conversation post-game)

*You might want to edit your post a bit to remove names because naming&shaming is against the forum rules of conduct.

Just continue to report the player when it happens. The name alone gives away that he’s just a troll anyways, so I really hope action is taken soon.

I would never report a troll. Trolls make the game more fun. Reporting for AFK, sure. But never for trolls.

Well, I first encountered him in March… I have him on my block list and I try to enter pvp only when I see him in a match (so I don’t end up with him), but I have run into him by pure chance at least 4 times since. If no action has been taken by now I don’t think any will :/ (THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP ON SHAMING)

:/ Not this kind of troll… verbally abusive and destructive to the ranked system. He is not a funny troll.

I find it funny when people are verbally abusive towards me.

Really?? do you think ANET will do something about AFK’ers and quitters? no matter how many times you report them they seem to come back more and more. not to mention the broken block option

^Trolling. haha I don’t usually mind because I just block them usually, but the main point is that it disrupts the match. Most teammates will respond to the player, and that makes it a 4v5 in which your team is more focused on arguing with the troll than pulling out a miracle win haha

team is more focused on arguing with the troll

Then they are are doing it wrong. That is not the troll’s fault. I don’t think I could ever enjoy a PvP oriented game without trolls.

Trolls make every game more fun.
