How to report some1 - Guild Wars Forums

jbwarrior · Jul 31, 2008, 03:07 PM // 15:07

Hi there,

I just have a question, if I'm doing some AB or RA, there are still lots of ppl that leave... so you have to battle with 3 and even sometimes with 2 ppl.

If you try to report them /report [name] , then you will get a message, that you have to be in the same district as the one you want to report.....

Question: Is there an other way to report that person.... because TBH

I have left a AB team (something came up), and when I came back I was Hexed by ANET for about 1 hour... so no PvP for me, how could they report me then, I was in my GH, so not in the same district

Tnx for explanation

Hi,

i got the same problem: With npf (norn point farm) alot of players just go get blessing and watching tv and let us do the farming. and when in the area you can't report someone for leeching so that's crap..
i would report him after the run but i get that same message like you got.

for AB you got to report when IN the battle mostly players report a player when a group arrive the 400 points.

Btw: /report [Name] or if you clicked on his name and you're targetting him just /report

You were not hexed for being reported you were hex by leaving the PvP match.

Here is the Link to what happened.

Yes but that was not the context of the OP he gave that he wasn't a leech and that he had left a few games before. So my post was logical and just fine to the context of the OP.

To the OP. Your welcome

Also something about dishonor that is really a "WTF moment"

Say your in a RA match, it's a 3vs4 because your 4th teammate leeched. So what do you do? Report them right?

Well if out of the 3 people your the only one who reported the leecher, you somehow get dishonor....

At least 2 people on your team (You and an teammate) must report a leecher...

Dishonor is just all round flawed...lets me honest.

From that wiki link...

"If Guild Wars crashes during a fight in PvP arenas, you still get dishonorable points equivalent for leaving a PvP match."

"Bug! Getting connection error twice and not being able to reconnect can also cause this status effect."

I've had these happen to me. Very annoying.

You don't NEED to report people for dishonor to take affect against leavers in PvP. Leavers are reported automatically.

PvE leavers aren't punished at all (as they shouldn't be, since many dungeons/areas can take over 2 hours).

I knew about having at least 2 people to report a leecher for him to get dishonour but I didn't know that I'd get dishonour being the only one to report...

I kind of disagree with you here. If you know you don't have the time to finish an area that takes a while then don't start it. There's nothing worse than taking a while to actually get a team together only to get in a dungeon and 20 mins later someone has to leave which causes a chain reaction of the team falling apart. Or you get a leecher that just stands there and does nothing cause mom said it was time to eat dinner.

But i can also see some abuse if there was some kind of report feature put in effect in pve, but it also would be kind of a good thing too. And when and if I ever join a pug group to do an area that takes a while I always make sure I have the time to finish the area, otherwise I don't join.
