I kind of feel like doing that should fall under the category of "obstruction of play", as it is genuinely obstructing several other people's gameplay as they can't get further into the MSQ because people are blocking the trials.Quote:

So are we placing bets yet on how long till MPK gets a ban under the new ToS?

Because one scenario that would definitely be possible to happen is having someone lower level end up running into an AoE of a max level mob and getting one-shotted... Or if you had mobs that happen to use AoE spawning near gathering nodes, could fighting in such a situation risk getting hit by a report...Quote:

Not a surprise for me, and it's clearly open to all sort of abuse but i will wait and see how it really work out in the end.
But if everything that is written is enforced, you can be sure that i would never ever help anyone else doing casual content in PF again. -

Do people really get banned from providing advice/asking properly or is all the "Oh No, Now I'm Gonna Be Banned if I Do This or That" are just mostly imagined hypothetical scenarios?

They've made the policy examples more specific for clarity's sake because there was way too much "It's not specifically stated in the TOS so I can do what I want" going on.
People who were inclined to report stuff will continue to do it. People who were inclined to shrug stuff off will continue to shrug it off. People who delight in creating trouble and drama will continue to do it and hope that targeted players will be in the latter category instead of the former, or may choose to nitpick as the former to cause the drama and trouble.
One thing I hope that players are catching onto is the repeated use of "action may be taken against a player even if a report has not been filed". Basically it's a warning that if you make a report against another player, your own actions and behavior may come under scrutiny during the investigation. If you're found to have engaged in prohibited activity yourself, you may be the one having action taken against your account.
In other words, don't file reports just for the sake of trying to get others in trouble because that trouble may end up in your lap. Report because the other player's actions have gone beyond what is reasonable. -
10-28-2021, 03:23 PMRonduwilI doubt pure healers are even pugging week 1. They're either in trusts at that point, or they're pugging via the duty finder. This is effectively a strawman because the scenario you're complaining about doesn't even exist. We all know that this is most likely about compelling wall to wall pulling.Quote:

The fact that they just need to progress some bosses before they can join your party indicates that they're not unilaterally excluded. "No lalas or bards" is the kind of crap they're talking about. Once again, you've twisted their words to create a strawman.Quote:
