How do I report someone for abusive behavior?

I've done it before, but I forgot the process, and when I try the support on GW homepage I am looped around in a giant circle.

How do I report another GW account for abusive behavior?

Dont worry, I figured it out and reported the guy who was abusive.

Did you go tell your mommy also? Like seriously why they heck would you go report someone? People spam all the time, i just put them on the IGNORE LIST!!! Did you forget this is a game.

BTW....Can you tell me who you reported?

Wow, I've reported one or two people in my time on the game (which is a lot of time, lol)...some people REALLY deserve to be reported. When someone is making extremely graphic racial/sexist comments and using racial slurs for 15 minutes, then I think you should be able to report them without people attacking you for it.

More than likely, Solace is being a dumbf*** about it because he's had to deal with someone reporting him, probably for a good reason, given his insulting tone.

LOL....considering i never called him a name, but you felt the need to refer to me as a dumbf***, lol....lol....there's to many types of players in guild wars just like you. Let me guess, you probably run around in CA or TA and find it exceptable behaviour.

I wish they would have age requirements before people were allowed to play a "GAME".

BTW- sure i have spammed, and no one has reported me or for that matter i reported anyone else. Why, cause I just put them on my ignore list, it is after all a "game".

It's a meeting place for people, like a club or cinema or restaurant. If you won't accept abusive, insulting, racist/sexist/...ist behaviour from people at the cinema, club or restaurant, it shouldn't be allowed in any other social context. Some kids make it a game to hang around on street cornersbeing abusive. Just because it's a game for them, doesn't make it acceptable.

Solace what is your IGN so I can put you on ignore?

My 10 year old son and his friends play this game. They tend to spam emotes and aren't great in PvP arenas because they only use 3 skills and they sometimes drop out in the middle of a fight, but they don't abuse people. They wouldn't know how.

So if there is an age limit, it should be "no players between the ages of 14 and 20".

Besides people dropping out in the middle of a fight, nothing irks me more than people saying "get some skillz you ----- noob". Remember you may be playing a 10 year old kid. Help them.

Lots of kids and ---- noobs play this game. How do you think Anet sold 1 million copies? Why do you think they can afford to keep adding content?

Solace is just trolling, ignore him. There is absolutely nothing wrong with reporting someone who has violated a rule, in fact it's great. Anet does take time to respond to these. Now, Seissor answered his/her own question, so I think we should leave it at that.

Not all kids act that way, myself for example. Some of us are just here to have a good time without using the expense of others, being perverted, etc, etc...

Age requirement, Solace? That's kind of sad since it kinda contradicts exactly how you're acting.

Actually I don't run in either, if my team has died and I haven't a hope in hell of winning, I go down with a fight. Maybe you have been reported, maybe you haven't. Calling someone a mommies boy because they want to report someone makes you an offensive dumbf*** to me, and as such, I called you one.

Just because there's an ignore option, doesn't mean I or anyone else should be forced to use it when someone violates the code of conduct. The code they agreed to when they accepted the EULA. Skipping over the EULA and just clicking OK is no excuse, neither is "But EULA's aren't legally enforceable". If you and I make a deal, I give you service A, so long as you follow rules a-j and then you break the rules, then you'll find service A withdrawn real damn quick.

And for the record, ignore really has no effect on offensive names both player and guild, on offensive people in general, those who have male warriors that walk up to seated female characters and proceed to dance in their face, etc etc etc. So yes, do something to offend me in the game and I'll ask you to stop. Continue to do it and a screen cap will be sent to ANet.

You report people when they dance in front of you? I'd think ANet would laugh..

thats were you're wrong, when you are pvping its competivite, and instinct is to get into your "enemies" head. Going to a club is not the same as what i just referenced, if you have never played competive sports, then you would have no idea what i am talking about, cause it happens all the time. And i don't mean the neighbourd kids getting together to play some street hockey

This doesn't make sense what so ever?? I ain't trolling!! I am serious, why would you go to great lengths to report somone who has "VIOLATED A RULE" in a bloody game.

Answer this question, have you ever seen someone driving irresponsibly? Got in to a car to drive after drinking? Speeding? IF the answer is YES did you call the police to report them, as they could have seriously injured someone as they "VIOLATED A RULE".

Come on give me a break...some of you people need to grow up and get your priorites in order.

If they aren't any good and only use "3 skills", what the heck are they doing in PvP arenas. Not only are they bringing this on themselves, they are seriuosly impacting the enjoyment of other peoples fun, because of this. There are other games suited for 10 year olds, and i don't think this one of them.
