For my dissertation I’m looking at UK gamer’s experiences of online gaming. If you’re 18 + and would be interested in knowing more i’d really appreciate a chat to talk about my research. You can message me either in game OR via my email : v9n31@students.keele.ac.uk

The reason anyone below 18 is excluded from participating is due to ethical approval being virtually impossible to get for young people. This project has been granted ethical approval 22nd april 2015.

Thanks for reading,

Now, I am a thick skinned person

No, no you aren’t. You came onto the forums to inform us about your unpleasant experience and wanting to report the player in question.

In your opinion. But your telling me that as a player I should just put up with being called an “egotistical f**”

Do we have the ability to put people on ignore? If they intend on releasing the LFG tool, at least give us a way to shield ourselves from abusive people.

Preferably, make it an account wide ignore.

Actually would really like this idea. I genuinely am ‘pro’ the LFG Tool and I think its been done really well . But that certainly would make a difference for me

Yes I did report. I mean how do I talk directly i.e can I message a member of the team on here ?

clearly the coherence of my first post hasn’t gone as well as planned :P.

Players who I have been victim of verbal abuse to in the past I still see ‘online’ on blocked list etc. Anyone on FoW server will understand what we went through with ’ Blue Perception’

I was sharing my first experience of the lfg tool which yielded a less than savory individual. I rarely post and admittedly meant to make another paragraph.

Once I finally noticed the LFG Tool was active on my account, I was excited to say the least. FINALLY could I with ease find groups to participate in dungeons with. Within 60 seconds I had found a group and had begun. It was smooth, accessible and clear. But of course the first experience was a horribly abusive player and frankly :

I’m sick to death of it Anet and its ruining the gaming experience. My first experience was an individual who referred to the rest of the party as " brain lacking" and " egotistical kitten". ( Of which I have screen shots of)

Now, I am a thick skinned person I can’t understand why everytime I ‘report’ a person for verbal abuse NOTHING is done about it- Frankly its putting me off playing the game altogether.

So whats the point of having the button ? Allowing people to go unpunished especially making such inappropriate comments -I know Anet wouldn’t support these views but clearly aren’t about banning players who abuse it.
