Is this really allowed ?

[Shavs 0]

So I made a topic about this before and got replied that apparently it's allowed, but I really have to ask again if it is because that would seem beyond retarded.

There's a player that follows me every time I log in on an alliance character and kills me with his 60 horde mage, how is it okay by the server admins for someone to continually stalk a person and make it so that they're incapable of playing ?

It leaves a really bad precedent that someone can completely ruin the gameplay  for others and unless it's explicitly written in ToS.

a ). Player vs Player

The Elysium staff recognizes all play styles to be valid and a part of the game and not harassment. Killing players of your opposing faction, including camping players at spirit healers, corpses and/or gravestones, is considered a part of the game.

Yeah, sadly the idea of world PvP which sounds fun in theory in reality just turns into all the 60 camping 48-50 locations to kill helpless people for honor. Theres plenty of ways to fix this flawed system but then it would be a non-vanilla fix and all these people who enjoy cyber-bullying would complain. On the other hand we have non-vanilla fixes in the PvE content like the Dire Maul King Gordok fight. The system is flawed but no one is going to fix it. You have to either go along with the rules that arent ideal or roll on the PvE server.

There are two concerns in play here. We do not allow the same player to operate more than one account at a time. If that player is following you with an alliance character and then not logging out when they change over to their other character, that is dual boxing and against our terms of service. 

The second concern regards what is and isn't harrassment. World PVP is a harsh environment, players are encouraged to form alliances and to rely on their friends in these situations, HOWEVER, we may intervene if a player is targeted deliberately for an extended period of time. This is at the sole discretion of the investigating GM.
