If someone tells you to stop doing something, and you continue to do it, then it can be considered harrasment.

Within reason.

Whats reason? well - this game is a PvP game, and if you are in the arena belting someone with an axe, and thry ask you to stop - well - umm - sorry - but the game IS beating people with axes

But the social behaviour, if you are interacting with someone, and they let you know they dont like it, then continuing to do it is harrasment.

"she could ahve easily left the district she was in"

This was the same lame excuse for abusive behavior that was given for those that supported in-town casinos. The devs proved to use with the removal of dice from towns that they don't agree with this assessment. I thank them for that, as this is the most ridiculous response possible for such harassment.

If you can???t see the problem with the idea that having fun equates to ruining someone else???s enjoyment then you might want to return to the elementary school playground. Just watch out for the recess monitors.

OMG!!!111! My character just smelled another character's armpit! MY DAY IS RUINED!!!

Lighten up guys, it's not like he's destroying someone else's property. People today are such weenies.

Oh I posted into pay-to-play post before getting here.... weird reported as new DOH

Lawyer henchmen.

Skill:
- Restricting order
Sacrifice 10% of your gold to prevent target from getting within 100' of you. He gets 5 damages in the (bottom) if he gets nearer.

Seriously though, a little fun is ok - I think it's pretty funny what the guy did. OF COURSE, "fun" is when you do it once. If he/she had to tell you that she'd report you you probably didn't listen to the first couple of "stop it".

didn't your mom tell you a good game is a short game?
Agreed with aaaaaaaagh except that hey man, cool down. Jerks are everywhere, that can't be helped. Einstein said that the two most common elements in the universe are hydrogen and stupidity. He knew his stuff.

IMNERHO.

As was already stated earlier in this thread, it's not about just that. It's about being followed around and annoyed for the sole purpose of someone getting under your skin. If it happened in one spot then so be it but when the offender follows you from spot to spot just to get you upset then it's harassment. Especially when you've been asked to please stop.

It would be the same thing as if I was to continually get the trade offer window to appear for you so that you couldn't proceed with what you were trying to do, such as trying to trade with another player. If this restricted you in performing the normal functions of the game and you asked me to stop then I should stop. If I then continued so that you were unable to play the game as it was meant to be played without leaving to a different district then you would have the right to report me for harrassment.

RSX77 · Jun 28, 2005, 03:59 PM // 15:59

This is exactly why I use International districts (usually completely empty), and keep local, trade, and emote channels OFF at all times.

Yes, that's true, but if I'm correct, then all he did was stand next to the person just so it looked like they were smelling his armpit. This is doing NOTHING to the character.

That's the thing though; it's not about just standing there. It's about following around for the sole purpose of upsetting someone. Since the other person involved asked the guy to stop then he should have respected that request and stopped. Instead he continued to follow her around with ill intent.

Maybe she was trying to take some screenshots of her character. Maybe she was testing out some dye mixtures. These are just a few examples of how this behavior could ruin someone???s enjoyment even before they ask you stop.

The keys here are being asked to stop but continuing to follow around. It's not necessarily the act in and of itself, as it actually sounds kind of funny, but rather the bad intentions that came along with subsequent acts.
