General Discussion / Re: What to do about TKers?
« on: September 08, 2011, 05:45:39 am »
I don't mind when some excited newbie hacks my face open because he thought a different type of banner meant enemy. I don't care when a tank is cutting down 3 enemies and I have my shield (or innards) destroyed by the swing around of his Flamberge, but when TKing is intentional and people are just using it to be annoying thats when something needs to be done.
(I'd like to point out that, this is not my way of trying to get the player in this example in shit or me seeking personal vengeance and whining over one intentional TK. I simply happen to have the evidence to prove my example of how irritating intentional TKers are.)
Having recently started a new build, I relived the peasant phase and am now in the substandard gear phase. Lately I've had my share of mouthpiece TKer's intentionally killing me and not apologizing, or bragging about it, and when questioned by admins their friends deny any wrong doing. It's irritating that this seems to have to be part of the game, I'm no forum troll and I'm not wanting to be a shit-disturber as mentioned before but I took some screenshots of how a typical intentional TKer behaves. I was in-game with a player today, who personifies the type of TKer who plays the game not to have their own fun but to wreck other peoples.
In my experience this is usually how dealing with an intentional TKer works out when admins are not on and true to form is again how it played out this time. Tell me if it sounds familiar?
Standing on a crowded siege tower with only teammates, the offending player was spamming around with a maul hitting teammates. I was one of a few who got bonked and he knocked half my life off. In teamchat I told him to "fuck off" I'm polite to others but when people are being moronic I will not likely be polite about what I say. So, obviously he crushes my level nothing swordsman with an overhand stroke and LOL's as is intentional TK protocol it seems. I did not get a shot of him killing me but I did get a shot of him admitting it.
In teamchat I told my team he was spamming recklessly and TK'ed me on purpose to let people know to keep an eye out. He admitted to intentionally TKing as if the rules do not apply to him and nothing was said or done as there was no admin and anything said or done would simply have exacerbated the situation.

So immediately after he decided to spam me for as long as he can saying I'm a leecher, even though I'm participating

That particular round ends and once the next is rolling, as usual by this time you're done with being irritated and just want to get back into the game and have forgotten the annoying Tker. Not long into the round he TK's another player (intentionally or not I'm unaware)

I tell him to apologize for his TK several times and he stays silent. (Which is a welcome change as this step usually involves further spam from the TKer. Overused lame internet jokes, a homosexually slanderous slur or a racist epithet which generally continues to show how much of a bigoted moron the player is.)

Before he TKed another player and was again, a twat; I felt that actually posting the screen shots I've taken so far would just be a pain in my own ass and lead to nowhere. Then I saw this thread and decided to put them up.
I agree that banning for intentional TK is a bit excessive. If it lands on an innocent player one could see how it may easily ruin the mod; for new or experienced players. I apologize for the lengthily post with all the screens but I had 'em and saw this post so I figured I'd see if anyone agreed with my little example. This is in no way a complaint or a dig against the admins, or the particular TKer from my example.
