Q:
WvW food trolling
I swear some people will take any opportunity to screw over other people, even ones ostensibly on the same team or working on the same goal.
Like the guy in SW the other day dropping the Aviators Memory box by every single bandit chest the train hit.
Crappy food isn’t exclusive to WvW either.
Or building dozens of siege inside towers/keeps to both waste supply and clutter stuff up
So yeah, some sort of "Placed by XYZ.1234 " would be helpful.
It’s not a critical thing admittedly.
There is absolutely no evidence to support that it would.” -AnthonyOrdon
So people are spamming F when they see the little popup, and not paying attention as to why or the implications of doing so?
Not sure how ANet could fix this, certainly giving players a target to hurl insults and abuse at isn’t a solution.
Or just either know your wvw food and not press F .. or have Anet add a small popup to food trays indicating stats.
Don’t be mindless.
It’s as simple as telling people to rebind their loot key.

I think siege & food should ALWAYS have their yellow description/nameplate visible once you get within a certain radius (like 900 for example) or at least have it toggle-able that way you’re not just mindlessly pressing F on something.
I know this already exists via holding down CTRL but a lot of people seem to not know that or don’t utilize it properly.
I drop kitten food all the time, mostly birthday cakes…… the most amusing part of it is, dropping a tonne of em in a zerg v zerg fight then watching ally and enemy eat em all up in a desperate struggle to loot before they die.
It’s almost as amusing as dropping siege on a dead/downed enemy driver and watching his allies spam all their abilities to clear that siege before they rez.
Throwing rams on your own backlines is funny… people assume ARROWCART MUST BUILD, but no, just a ram….
Blowing up bridges in EotM.
Spectral walking off cliffs as commander (fixed).
Running 3-5 laps of SM before the zerg questions your motives.
I’m a little curious though why you think action needs to be taken against a person for trolling around, the purpose of doing such things is to get a laugh out of the people who mindlessly run around spamming F…. I never see roamers fall for this sorta stuff, but zerglings jump on it like fly to kitten. I could be wrong, but perhaps pay a little more attention when you’re in a PvP zone? Everything I listed wouldn’t work or be as funny if people paid more attention to what they we’re doing.

Maybe someday they’ll learn to bind “AoE loot” to a different button.
