Betraying someone’s trust and stealing their in-game items is scamming and you can get banned for it.

Claiming that a particular area on the map is owned by you can get you banned.

Killing a monster that another player is attacking (when they didn’t ask for help) is considered killstealing and can get you banned.

Attacking players who are grinding during guild wars is against the rules.

Attacking players who say they want to stay out of the guild war and who do not attack you is also a banable offence.

I have, too many times to mention, posted about these violations continually happening to me when I'm grinding. Most times I solo due to the time-slot which I have to come in to play for xp and crafting items. BUT, it never fails to amaze me there are always those who feel the need to smite someone just for the fun of it, or they feel the individual is in THEIR area.

I just, and mean within the last 10 mins had Ayayt (or something to that effect, a mage) come into the abyss area where I was(lvl 50), and had been playing for sometime, only to tell me to leave. When I refused to leave, he and his party attacked me causing me to lose 70s in buffs inclusive of the buff I need to beg for from a cleric because I'm an archer.

It feels bad enough that I must beg for buffs as an archer, and I do show my humble thanks when someone is kind enough to acommodate me. But, when I spend hard earned silver on scrolls only to have a group of jerks come in and kill me because I won't leave an area they consider as theirs for purpose and time, it clearly violates your 'In-Game' rules as stated, and has been outlined for quite sometime. You say you want screenies, well I can't acommodate you due to no where to place these things on the net.

You truly need to have GM's available to monitor these actions; not everyone has access to http pages with which to collect screenies for violations. I guess you'll just have to take an old granny's word for what happened and decide if what I've just said, and have said in the past is the truth. You know it goes on, why doubt it? I've never lied in these forums about anyone or flamed on anyone. But yet Outspark continues to allow these actions to go on.

One afternoon I entered the abyss only to be killed time and time again when using the portal (among others as well). Where was the GM then?? Its getting rediculous and now I know why I choose to play early morning and late evening. It is also making it very difficult to level. I do not condone pvp for those who do not wish to participate and have make my feelings quite clear with the choice of guild name which has 'Peace' behind it. AAAaaand... ya I'm that old. :eek: Please enforce your rules, Outspark personnel.

i would remove the name due to blacklisting, i know this may not be your intent but it is against the ToS

Did you take a screeny of them saying that this area was theirs or something to that effect?

did you take a screeny of them killing you because you refused?


If so submit a ticket and they will get punished. I agree that this is not acceptable behaviour and it should be stopped. It is sad but everywhere you go there will always be a bully who desires to be the alpha dog.

Firstly, I had to edit your post a little to remove the name... sorry about that, but them's the rules.

Secondly, I agree; we need more of a in-game presence, even if its NPCs who guard the portal to prevent camp-killing players trying to enter/leave. (personally I’d like to see city guards actually stop people from pulling mobs into town as well *coughUrugacough*)

However, the Abyss is kind of a dead zone… nearly anything goes as long as it isn’t a direct violation of the TOS. It ahs better than average loot and experience but comes at the cost of constantly worrying about who will come along and kill you. It is a risk accepted by anyone who chooses to enter the area.

If you have evidence of genuine harassment or TOS vios I encourage you to send your report and screenshots to the Outspark team via a submitted ticket. As for GMs standing in the abyss, I don’t think that’s going to happen any time soon… GLs maybe, but even that will be at their discretion.

Sorry. :(
