Guild Wars 2

What is the policy, or suggested recourse, for known spies from opposing servers in WvW being on our server and relaying map/team/say chat and positional information to the enemy server?

Why should spying be prevented?

“All is fair in love and war.”

Not saying it should be. Was asking if there is a policy against it, or a suggested procedure to counter it.

Whether it’s allowed or not, Anet’s not going to do anything about it.

Misinformation is your best and only tool against spies,,, make the spying server look like monkeys and they will spy on someone else.

ANET let you change servers so there is nothing that can be done. You need Gems to transfer and i guess more than a few buy them with RL money. So why would ANET stop that?

If a server is,willing to get 300G together to spy, then I’d say that server is pretty pathetic.

Saboteurs with no loyalties, or someone with a grudge against that server, are far more harmful.

Truearrow’s got it right, misinformation works wonder

At some point, we suspected some player to spy on our server, we got someone to tag up for non-ts people, and TS people were following someone else with a target.

Worse than just spying – during season one there were DDOS attacks on teamspeak servers in EU Gold League. It’s surprising what people will do to gain some sort of advantage.

Spying is someone that has bought multiple copies of the game. Why would Anet discourage people from buying enough copies of the game to spy on any server they WvW against?
