How do you Appeal someone ?

I have this guy "stexe god" who everytime i enter citadel and try to sell deldrimore and vellum-he and his clan start Hassasing the crap out of me. I dont know if they do this to everyone that comes in or for some strange reason they target me. If i try to sell an axe--he replies " 2k for that pos ?" and then he has his guildies all hop on the band wagon. He must think hey's cute try'n to run all the compitetion out of citadel. While his guild tries to capitalize on cornering the market by running everyone out. I have had him on ignore for 3 weeks--( I wish the Ignore cmd would erase his text from my LOCAL and TRADE channel.)

So, back to the issue at hand, because i searched "APPEAL" and got nothing. I have played other mmorpg games before and it was /appeal. I cant say i ever had to use it, but this time i want the kid to just leave me alone, or erase him from my chat window, he is ruining my enjoyment for this game.

I would like something like that too because similar things happen to me (but not that bad). For example, today I was forming a dancing party (yes they still do exist ) and my lady ranger was dancing in sync with about 6 or so other rangers. At that time a warrior came up adn started saying a whole lota stupid crap(cant remember what) and got more people to come and ruin the dance party. I wish the /ignore feature would atleast take away all the text from that person, or even better yet, when they are in the list you do not even see their character.

Yeah, and once they have you in the friends list, they know when your playing and can come harass you. But at least i know when heys on, and usually try to stay away from him when heys online. But it also works the other way for someone that enjoys trying to get a rise out of you.
What is the appeal command ?
I told him i was going to report him, but then his whole clan started harassing me and telling me they all reported me.

Ya, there are a lot of idiotic ppl out there but lots of cool ppl to balance the crap.

What is the Appeal function? Appeal means to make someone like you or something similar.

I think ignore (I don't really have to use it) should take out all reference to this person (on chat, trade, whisper, total) and should auto-set their view of you on friends list to "always offline".

I only have 1 person on my ignore list and that for a minor infraction of calling our party idiots after having been refused entry... that's it. I seem to have good luck I guess

yeah i have had people start that crap when i am trying to sell stuff too, actually that name rings a bell for some reason, but i just flame em back, put em on ignore, and change districts, or even cities, there really isnt any way for them to find you other than luck.

true about the ignore thing, it should at least block all chat from them

ahem...
Appeal : To call, as for aid, mercy, sympathy, and the like ; to refer to another person or authority for a decision or vindication.

I really think there should be volunteer 'avatars' of the devs in every town in the game at least only in the american districts endowed with CERTAIN powers like instant communication to the devs for banning, or punishment. no outright 'punishment' powers or teleporting. just standing there, recieving all tells and all whispers to make sure they're not harrassing people.

this could be a real bad idea though- power corrupts!

I see he is on right now, what city do you usually sell in ?? I will make sure to do all my slacking there, and back you up as much as I can.

As far as I'm aware, there is no in-game appeal or report function. (don't quote me on that though)

I would suggest emailing Anet about it.

Yeah, this game doesn't really have GMs... not in the traditional MMORPG sense.

I feel for you, those people are annoying.

Just today had two morons with me attempting the HoH. Invited me, grabbed henchmen and entered with only 7. Figured I wouldn't be a ass and leave because we stood very little chance of winning. Seemed friendly at first, person asked if they could join my guild. Once I told her the name, she called it gay... started calling me gay, saying my character's name was gay, saying her boyfriend was gay... and then when we started the next fight sure enough I died. She starts yelling "WTF ARE YOU DOING, DO YOU EVEN HAVE A SWORD AND DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW TO F**KING USE IT. GET OFF THE PARTY!!!". The other just sat there and laughed.

Ignore just isn't enough for these kinds of people. All she kept doing was bugging me to no end until I left the district. This is one of the main reasons I play alone, the henchmen don't complain when something doesn't go their way...

That's because they're too busy being dead

^^
lol

I get those people all the time. Its really annoying when you try to acution something and a person bids absurd prices and scares away all the regular bidders and then refuses to pay up.

You have to go to the support site, ask a question and report them, give them time / date situation, etc. Then they investigate the situation, they report that they will not talk to you if they took action.

Hehe, I have partied with Stexe God...once. Then he hit my ignore list. He is one of those kids (definately a minor, or an adult with a maturity problem) who charges into fights before the party is ready, he constantly talks about how l33t he is. He's the worst I have seen in a long time, I havent ever seen anyone type themselves up so much...guy must have real self esteem issues.

The guy's a jerk, it's a widely known fact. I wouldnt sweat it too much.

They should have special servers where you have to take an IQ test to get in.

what exactly would happen if when someone was turned down?
I would think that when enough people got turned down, there would be some pretty severe consequences for Anet, for calling people stupid.

and it helps to have screenshots. I can't remember for sure, but I think harrassment is against the EULA.

Maybe we should form a new guild: Gaurdian_Angels. Then recruit honest folks who GAS about the game and keeping it clean. When people are being bothered they could yell out for a GA and we'd investigate and report....hoping that we'd have enough members to almost always have someone on. That way the devs wouldn't be dealing with millions of reports they couln't ever hope to police but would take reports from the GA's serioiusly and act. Probably an impossible idea but just came to me.

Not a bad idea, but not entirely safe either. I can easily see that going from a GA, to a tattle-tale, easily. And everyone knows what happens to tattle-tales. Its better to go the anonymous route, since there's nothing to target in retaliation. And when people get too comfortable with the complaints, the amount of weak complaints will probably rise to the point where the enforcers just won't deal with it anymore. I used to help run a ET server, and it seemed that whenever we tried to control every minute detail, the details became even more nitpicky, and more bitching ensued. It was an endless cycle. I'm not saying this is a nitpicky complaint, but not something I'd say is a reason to create a team of player "rats." It's just better to keep your nose on your own business, and pop in with a little support if you're a witness to a crime.

No need to feed the desire to "fight the man."
