Make it require you to have a certain quest active in order to cross over.

I'm so upset about this.

I have included it in the Community Summary this week, and I know that the team will try to devise a means to make this not happen in the future!

dread pirate fargus · Aug 11, 2007, 12:29 AM // 00:29

with regards to the A/R in pre thing.

not only do i not beleive it would ever be possible....

its completely irrelevant to this topic. if you want anet to do something about the serious topic at hand please do not clutter up this thread with irrelevant info.

sorry to sound harsh / nasty but the faster i see this cleaned up the better imho.

ANET ITS TIME TO DO SOMETHING. now had over a 100 signatures in just a couple of days (including the ones over at presearing.com) including several people who have been affected personally by the bug.

Awesome!!! Hi, Gaile... I always wanted to meet you.

Too bad that it's neccessary. But if it gets abused it needs a fix. It can be devastating for a LDoA title farmer who already invested a huge amount of time in death leveling.

for all those who have signed this thread there is a single problem with all of this....is anyone at arenanet going to bother with something like this with just a fansite sign
(/signed btw)
or do I get to organize a live protest at the arenanet corps with full scale mobs

(my personal favorite choice)

Neo Nugget · Aug 11, 2007, 03:29 AM // 03:29

Yes i think they will, they havent ignored pre. They added LDoA title, charr bags and charr salvages......(hopes for tomes that the charr bosses drop now lol)

not really sure, but I think I have experienced the same thing with my lDoA in making

time to get paranoid

Darkhell153 · Aug 11, 2007, 06:48 PM // 18:48

So...I don't get to organize a protest group?

ElinoraNeSangre · Aug 11, 2007, 08:12 PM // 20:12

Gaile, thanks for being on top of this one - it's a pretty distressing thing to a lot of people.

Here's a thought - what about when the timer pops up, it doesn't start counting down until both players in the party push a button? Sort of like skipping cut scenes, nothing happens until everyone pushes the button. That way everyone has to explicitly agree to go before anything happens.

dread pirate fargus · Aug 13, 2007, 08:36 AM // 08:36

hopefully we will see something done about this soon

my lvl 16 friend just got dragged to post yesterday, its so depressing cause i think he will probably stop playing pre for good now

dread pirate fargus · Aug 13, 2007, 03:05 PM // 15:05

as much as i like to be an upstanding member of the community and do things for the good of pre..... my account just got permanently banned.

apparently for using an ingame exploit?

this is because of people trashtalking about me, saying that i used an exploit (which is a bunch of lies... i allways worked hard for my gold tyvm)

i think by exploit they refer to whoever the hell bought the tomes to pre. people like dreamcatcher trash talked and accused me of 'being part of a group of people who glitch and hack' or something. WTF i would never do that.

this post itself proves how much i care about pre. why would i want to ruin it with tomes?

GAILE HELP ME!

this is a good idea, or make it a single player mission (Ak same as Tihark Orchard).

i only just read about this today as a destraction while AFK death leveling my perma pre, and i realy cant how people get their jollies by pulling high levels into post (my brother felt the same too).

i understand the sort of hours it takes to get LDoA and (19 hours and im only at level 9)it is such a shame when people spend so many hours leveling only to fall victim to a moron.

/signed a thousand times and a thousand more. pulling needs to be stopped.

as my perma pre is coming up to the top of the max levels you can get through quests i am starting to get ALOT of random invites, but im still safe as i dont have a secondary.

higaru · Aug 14, 2007, 11:19 AM // 11:19

/signed warning for both player with possibility to cancel, or even better a confirmation from the second player would be ideal, i have 3 high lvl char. in pre and don't want them to be accidently dragged out.

Gaile Gray · Aug 15, 2007, 11:32 PM // 23:32

I just wanted to confirm that we are still looking at this issue, and we will devise some sort of resolution, I'm sure. Your suggestions have been very helpful, and thank you for bringing the whole thing to our attention.
