Should i report? - Guild Wars Forums

Performance Pudding · Mar 15, 2008, 05:47 AM // 05:47

ok so i was monking in ra then i call this guy a noob (new player noob not rude noob) then he starts spamming me and this is what happens.

[IMG]

anyway should i report him and should i worry about what he could do if he gets my ip?

keep in mind i was trying to be as nice as possible even though i might of pissed him off a lil.

Edit: how do i report if i should?

In the end it's your call, but from my perspective, noob is not exactly a compliment. You may not have been trying to come off as a dick, but you did never the less

pamelf · Mar 15, 2008, 05:59 AM // 05:59

Don't report. You did kind of encourage him.

natural_Causes · Mar 15, 2008, 06:01 AM // 06:01

Its really up to you if you are going to report him. You could very well report him for verbal abuse or obsene(sp?) language.
http://www.guildwars.com/support/ <--- you can report him here.
As for him finding you IP address, it would be extremely difficult for him to unless he knew more about you, because he would only get the IP to the GW server.

Pleikki · Mar 15, 2008, 06:11 AM // 06:11

mm Yeah Dont report it..

I pwnd U · Mar 15, 2008, 06:16 AM // 06:16

No reason to import. Just so immature brat trying to be all pro at life. It's nothing new. No reason to report especially since as others have pointed out, you did kind of egg him on. Had you put him on ignore and he kept harrassing you in local that would have been a different story.

Operative 14 · Mar 15, 2008, 06:21 AM // 06:21

Umm... Report him because he responded in kind to what you said? I'd say no. You started it, and it also looks like you gave as good as you got. It's very hard to distinguish between 'noob' and 'noob' anyway.

In the off chance he were to get your IP address and do anything, then it would be more of a police matter than an Anet matter.

Performance Pudding · Mar 15, 2008, 06:33 AM // 06:33

k i wont report thx or input

**cosyfiep** · Mar 15, 2008, 07:39 AM // 07:39

put him on ignore list and forget about it.

Fril Estelin · Mar 15, 2008, 08:00 AM // 08:00

Just FYI, he can't find your IP. He's just trying to scare you and playing on the fact that you think he can find your IP.

No need to report, he'll grow up and realise how stupid he is ... or he won't!

the kurzick eater · Mar 15, 2008, 08:36 AM // 08:36

for small stuff such as afking during a round of RA i dont report... people have other stuff to do sometimes, ya know?

but for stuff like that.. where they just keep pissing you off.... i would report them if he/she acted that stupid. theres no reason to act like a hardass over a video game.

i mean you DID kinda start it by calling him a noob. (newb is more proper imo

) just ignore him.. or if you really hate him get your alliance to spam him!(jk lol)

Gift3d · Mar 15, 2008, 09:23 AM // 09:23

No. You should move the frig on like the rest of us who don't care and don't let dumb kids get to us.

Really, it doesn't even matter if you "report" him or not. The fact that you have taken what he said and let it get to you SO badly that you screenshot it and post it here proves that that random kid has gotten the best of you, therefore has already won (since we all already know you are taking this as serious business).

Your integrity is questionable and so is your age here, because your inability to deal with your everyday imbecile shows your lack of experience in the real world, because if you were to dwell on them like you dwell on this random internet kid, well... god only knows.

Sure i might argue with some retards in local chat or via PM when i'm bored, but hell, i don't let them get to me, nevertheless as severely as this person has to you.

You have my sympathy.

Squishy ftw · Mar 15, 2008, 09:32 AM // 09:32

Don't report for that..and like others said..you kind of started.

I got a slightly off topic question tho. Did you call him a noob because he didn't attack the monk the entire duration of the game ?

Enko · Mar 15, 2008, 09:52 AM // 09:52

by the way, if you were calling him a new player its "newb" not "noob" . ..

Buddhaofwar · Mar 15, 2008, 10:39 AM // 10:39

I lol'd a little when he said 'ur illiterate'

warcrap · Mar 15, 2008, 06:59 PM // 18:59

i recommend you dont report just ignore him.
its kinda of pointless to report people for abusing and using bad language if we have an ignore feature.
its best to report for serious things like botting and stuff,

RPGmaniac · Mar 15, 2008, 07:09 PM // 19:09

newb=newbie (someone who is new at the game)
noob=arrogant, incompetent, cocky, plain bad at the game (someone who sucks but won't listen to advice on how to get better)

Learn these differences for future reference

And I would say don't report only because you started it and you played his game.

Vamis Threen · Mar 15, 2008, 08:00 PM // 20:00

Get over it. You're as guilty as he is.
