I am tired of being sniped by bullies. Groups like [redacted alliance] are sniping all day and night. Their leader goes by the name [redacted name]. He encourages this activity. I think he calls himself that because after 12 he climbs out of his moms basement to snipe. I tried to play in a different slice but he sends people to find me. I only have a 3 star roster. Please all bullies from the [redacted] alliance leave me alone.

    Well its against Forum rules to specifically name people. But that REALLY sucks because now I want to know who is doing this out of curiosity! I'm sure others do as well! Please PM me the alliance so I can look for them while playing PVP myself. Thanks!

    Because the forum rules say you can't call anyone out by name and you did a bit of that

    Im in the aforementioned redacted alliance and I suspect we have ourselves a bit of a mis-understanding so if you would like to pm me you are welcome to

    Just curious, why would you respond with that?  

    Why not just say you will call off the dogs if there is a misunderstanding?  Not attacking you or anything , but to the uninformed like myself, it seems like you want to keeps this under wraps, versus coming out in the open and explaining the misunderstanding

    Except they'll probably be shielded.  And the worst way to get off of a KOS list is to keep antagonizing the ones doing the sniping.

    It sounds like the OP hit someone in said alliance 3+ times during one of their hops, and they didn't take too kindly to it.  Not saying it's right, but unwritten rules and whatnot...

    @Darknes21
    We take harassment claims very seriously, including cyber bullying, which is why we recommend players send in Support Tickets when such a situation is encountered. This is also the reason we do not condone referencing of player names, without their express permission, as we do not want witch-hunts to occur.

    Sending in a Support Ticket with details about suspect offenders will allow our team to properly investigate the referenced individual(s).

    @Spudgutter I invited the op to pm me so we could understand what is causing the issue then work together to fix it - at this point in time all I have to go on is his perception stated very briefly.  Two sides to every story and all that ...

    The best way to avoid this is to ask permission before hitting ANYONE. You'll need to start much earlier as your climb will now take several hours while you're waiting for replies, but it's really the only way to make sure you're being a responsible MPQ citizen. Believe it or not, not all players are on Line, if you run into any of those, it's best to just skip and find someone that will allow you to hit them after they shield. 

    Play it safe and be courteous! That's my MPQ motto.

    That's ridiculous.  This is a game battle system not tickle fight duals...

    One of the many reasons I hate the train wreck that is PvP in this game.

    @Angjo

    i don't disagree that there can be two sides to a story.

    What i don't agree with is two things: unsportsmanlike conduct and unnecessary bullying.  If we are doing another thread on counter-sniping and bullying, i am all in on this conversation and would love for the devs to finally step out of the shadows and weigh in on the matter. 

    This game has an atrocious pvp system, i think we can all agree on that.  If i get hit two, three times by the same person while doing a late climb to 900, then so be it, that is the shoddy way the game is set up.  if i get hit by ten different people, all while i have a low score, who all belong to the same alliance, then that is garbage and bullying and in my opinion, unnecessary, no matter what the imagined slight was against the original person.

    In the land of "an eye for and eye," we all eventually go blind.

    No chance that was anything but sarcasm...


    I'm definitely guilty of triple tapping a few easy teams when I climb...  the MMR only gives me so much, and I wouldn't/don't hold it against other teams that do the same to me.
