Another player, both being in the same guild[..], came up and beginning telling her the same thing and telling her to stop spamming and that he hoped she got banned.

This is the important and glossed over part of your message. Why was she accused of spamming?

There isn’t anything glossed over, actually. She wasn’t spamming at all. The only thing she was doing was responding via the ‘say’ feature to the player repeatedly saying he was reporting her for gold selling. Which itself is ridiculous because combined we don’t even have 5 gold. His fellow guild member joined and added in to the harassment while she tried to discern what was actually going on and figure out why this person suddenly decided to ‘report her’ for something she hadn’t done. If anything, he was the one spamming by repeating going: “reported you” and “stop trying to sell me gold”.

So, I was on a Skype call today while playing with a friend. We were exploring Lion’s Arch and found Weyandt’s Revenge and were going through it. While I messed up one part and had to work my way back, she made it to almost the end where you have to pick between three water slides to jump through. As she wasn’t sure which one to go into, she stood there for a while and waited for me to rejoin her.

While waiting, another player next to her asked her which one to jump through. Upon saying she didn’t know, he began saying he reported her for selling gold and the like. Another player, both being in the same guild and race, came up and beginning telling her the same thing and telling her to stop spamming and that he hoped she got banned.

This was all happening while I was trying to get back through, with me being about at the point where spikes go in and out of the walls. When she moved away from them and picked a hole to jump through, one of them continued to follow her. I felt helpless, only able to hear her through call while she grew more and more distressed to the point of tears as he wouldn’t leave her alone and started to say incredibly crude, inappropriate, and demeaning things to her. I’d quote them here, but that would go against the forum rules. She left via waypoint, and by the time I caught up with her she was incredibly upset and had to leave for a while to recover.

Unfortunately, her distress made it impossible for her to recall the player’s names, merely their guild tag and what race they were, nor did she report them as she was more focused on just getting away from them.

Harassment is something that is just unacceptable and I was wondering if there was some way I could use the information about them I have to get in contact with someone perhaps of the guild or just someone who I can report them to? I don’t want it to go unpunished when they’re just going to continue to think it’s okay to harass and upset other players.
