Report is for INTENTIONAL team attacks.
So when you report someone who is stupid but not TKing on purpose, sometimes they get mad.
It is a good tool to force people to be cautious but its not what its meant for, so there will always be some confusion about when/how/why reporting someone and the direct consequences.
But TKing a reporter is clearly wrong (even though I'm pretty sure your story lacks a proper background like most kick/ban/blame topic).
A) This poll is useless, and i don't like you for making such a thing.
B) Intentional TK is NEVER allowed in crpg.
C) Reporting for team hits is ALWAYS allowed.
a) stupid hitsThese 2, is when i press it.
b) intentional hits
Useless? About 60% of the people on EU 2 thought that TKing a reporter was ok, so I was baffled.
This is not a matter of thinking or opinions, this is a rule.
You press PrtScn multiple times, then you press "i" and you tell the admins someone is intentionally tk'ing you, then you wait if the guys gets kicked/banned/warned and if that doesn't happen you either shut up or make a report on the forum with your screenshots.
If all that doesn't work you smear nutella on a bagel and eat in under a blanket, and you'll be ok again.

Indeed i did teamhit you and killed you , but also i apologised . seems you didnt take the sorry part of sentence. SORRY ONCE MORE>
At beginning I used to press them every time, but now I never use it.
This is only half of the issue though, because as soon as I reported Varadin he struck me another two times (He'd have kept it going had I not died there) even though there were no enemies in sight.
Recently I was playing on EU 2 on one of my "light" alts when Varadin_HRE (Who was on my team mind you) hit me twice while we were trying to kill an opponent. I reported him because of two things.
1. He was too greedy and kept getting in the way which resulted in both of us being killed - IMO he made a terrible ally and because he got both of us killed I concluded that he was a liability to the team, and an expendable one at that.
2. He hit me. I think it is perfectly fair to report an ally of yours when they hit you, because unless they are planning to hit you or another ally an additional 4 times then they've got no problems. To me, reporting people is telling them to watch out but to a great many people it is an inexcusable insult. I find this very odd, so I'd like to hear what you all think. Why have this feature if you're not allowed to use it?
This is only half of the issue though, because as soon as I reported Varadin he struck me another two times (He'd have kept it going had I not died there) even though there were no enemies in sight. This is my main issue. He intentionally TKed an ally because said ally had reported him for being reckless and ruthless. I then went on to make a kick-poll but it didn't get through because of the many HRE members on at the time I suppose.
Is it really fair to TK an ally because he reported you for having hit him? Let me hear your honest thoughts and opinions.
Here's (http://forum.meleegaming.com/eu-%28official%29/) the section to deal with people like that.
but the report is for INTENTIONAL TKS. It is not a OMG THAT GUYS IS NOOB report.

That's your opinion. And it has nothing to do with being an admin.
I want it removed because in practise it actually creates more conflict than it solves. It is rare for someone to actually be kicked by it, and it causes alot of friction between people, as well as being exploitable by trolls.
No I have never been kicked by it because for me it goes 5/5, 6/5, 7/5 etc, I tested it when the feature came out.
As an admin I can say that the report function causes more work that it is worth. Its too abusable for trolls, and the community has incorrect views on its use. If some absoloute noob teamhits you, its tempting to report, but the report is for INTENTIONAL TKS. It is not a OMG THAT GUYS IS NOOB report.Which is stupid, cause as far as I know this is how intentional tk's should be dealt with

The message that comes up it ' player X has teamhit you, press M to report if you think it was intentional'. Its not the exact quote, but thats what it says essentially.Wrong. That's not what it says. That was what it used to say, but chadz changed it almost immediatly to show that it was not just for intentional teamhits, but for all teamhits.
The part about "if you think it was intentional" was only there for a very short time.
I TK Micah and Shanks (on purpose) all the time and they never once pressed M 8-)
