Change to the ban system.

[Vespar]

How can you control something you have no control over? That's like asking a man with turrets syndrome to stop acting weird. It's mental heath and you have no way of controlling that. Addicts have impulses so why can't they stop? It wouldn't be called an impulse if you could just stop and control your actions.

So your saying you'd murder someone on impulse expecting to be forgiven, because "you couldnt control your emotions"?
Thats essentially what you are saying here.

I'm sorry but I kind of have no remorse here. If you have that many strikes against you, maybe you shouldnt play MMO's where you are put into positions where you cant control yourself. Or seek help for your mental health problems instead of expecting others to walk on egg-shells for you.

Well that escalated quickly.

ok im going to do something I never do and that is make a statement here. @hope_for_change.
I don't believe you have a mental disability, in fact im a bit perturbed that you are claiming to have one to justify your actions over the past 3 if not more years.

I personally do have a mental disability that makes me socially weird, thus I do not pick up on peoples responses to thing. I over my life time adapted and learned to deal with this and what I need to look for, I mess up some times and it leads to drama but I own it when I make those mistakes and work to correct them. this is because my mother raised me with the sentiment my actions are my own and no one is responsible for them but my self.

now I don't think these ppl that you claim are toxic are not toxic I believe whole heartedly you are the toxic one, the reasoning for this is how you make comparisons to unlike things and try and link them like they are the same. you jump to extremes and your most extreme evil is a racist or sexist, this is the first thing you pull at to compare how your being compared to evil people. the more I have read over your text and this chat the more I get the feeling that you are a SJW. an those toxic people were just people who did not agree with you that you lashed out at and attacked. but seeing as you have no logs and you did not say what disability you had just used it as a excuse as to why we are all bad and rules need to be changed to accommodate you.

personally i have never encountered any one truly toxic on this game, this game as log as I have played it, the game (I lost the game) has one of the best community's of any mmo I have ever played, helpful, fun, respectful players, so on. yet here you are saying people are attacking you and your friends, well if your a bad healer or tank or both then players will say it an try and help you get good. that is not insulting that is being helpful. part of me thinks you see any form of critique as being attacked and that's why those players are toxic.the fact of the matter is this the rules are the rules like the law is the law, you sighed the tos you payed 15$ a month for a game you clearly never read the TOS for.

what did you hope to accomplish here? that the entire forum would rally to your cause and agree with you, in the real world people do not do that they obey the rules for things they enjoy and invest in, the do not act like children and make mutable accounts to push issues, that they them self's created. I hate to be the one to have to say this however you need to grow up take a long look at your self and think. "should I really say these things, should I really act like this, does my actions here reflect who I am as a person negatively.

in conclusion @hope_for_change. grow up, welcome to the real world, follow the rules everyone else has to or expect to have consequences for your actions.

Is it really easy to get banned or something?

Well if people start to argue ingame and it gets a bit heated and someone reports you when you are getting agressiv, its easy. Especially since a lot of people shoot out reports rather fast. I haven't been banned ingame but you'll never know what is exactly banable, especially if you take a look at the judgement of the mods here on the Forums.

So yes i'd say it can hit you quickly with a ban if the GM woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

[Kallistra]

I wonder what crazy things you have said OP because it's actually pretty hard to get suspended in the game. I can be pretty confrontational and blunt, but I've never been out of line enough to get in trouble for things I've said. I'm going to have to agree with the majority of responses here and say seek professional help for either therapy or medication.

First off lets not assume that we all know that every person can control their actions. Just because you make this this statement does not make it a fact, just because you say it.

https://www.cdc.gov/features/tourett...ngs/index.html

"#3 People with Tourette cannot control their tics (movement or sound) even though they may want to. "

Secondly stop assuming that most addicts don't relapse.

https://drugabuse.com/library/drug-relapse/

"Recent drug relapse statistics show that more than 85% of individuals relapse and return to drug use within the year following treatment. "

So post some fact's not opinion's when you use phrases like "lost of addicts control themselves" sure if "Lots" is 15%.

Now for my opinion, yes some banning offensives are worse .. for I one I hate Bot's that Auto reprice their whole vendor when one person underbids them by one gil. This seems like very simple issue, the GM's have all the logs, I like to think that they look at them and then make a conscious choice. I would hate to think that what ever account got the most "ban ticks" is the one they ban and they don't even look at the logs.

I feel like we do not have all the information to make a proper decision on the matter. If I had a vote I would vote that the GM's do their job and not force this poor kid to come here and be attacked.

I have an FC mate who found himself in a comparable situation.

The context being that he was running o12 normal mode for the week as a healer, and everyone was screwing it up, dying left right and center, and blaming him alone for it, while the other healing was not even trying to heal and in fact spent most of his time face down in the dirt.

He did mechanics correctly, dodged all AOE's, healed as much as he possibly could, and all he got for it was scapegoating and harassment.

The other people in there, and ESPECIALLY the other healer could not accept that they were doing it wrong, and instead decided it must all be the fault of the only person in the instance who isn't dying over and over, getting hit with everything, or randomly AFKing in the middle of the fight.

After multiple wipes and one insult too many he finally snapped and lashed out, calling them out for using him as a scapegoat and on their incompetence and laziness, and basically called them a bunch drooling retards, after they had spent the last half hour repeatedly calling him far worse.

They promptly reported him for hurting their precious feelings, after all, it's only okay when THEY do it!

Cue the banhammer smackdown.

He is now walking on eggshells for fear of losing his account because of further incidents like the above.

The OP must be really going overboard. I don't even encounter 'toxic' people that often. How are they finding so many people to counter-harass? lol

I guess that all depends on how you play the game. Do you play a lot of PvP or high end content? Or are you a casual? Myself I never find Toxic environments because I solo a lot. I bet if you spent a lot of time in the "Environment" this kid seems to play in you to would see it. *shrugs*

[Eric_Riot]

I'm here because the GM's pointed me here and told me to make my case here and they will look into it.

This is what I don't like at all. The GM is in the wrong here, he/she should never have told you to come here. They need to do THIER job! How can they expect us to make any decision at all with out ALL the facts. If this is true shame on you GM

Hello, I've been reported in the past to the point of the next one being an account deletion...

The best advice I can give you is, you are not going to change the “system” and it’s seems inevitable that you are going to slip up again.

Your main account is on life support, and you need to prepare and say your goodbyes. You need to move all your stuff to a new account and just chalk up this whole thing up as a harsh learning lesson. It’s just a matter of time. Cheers
