SE's inability to protect players from stalking/harassment

[Veliaire]

-anymore- and yeah i do care that SE didnt do anything. That SE didnt do anythingggg. Additionally, SE encourages players to report as instances occur; im not sorry as I fail to see how relying on the people in authority to handle this situation is a problem. Again, if there were preventions in place, these kind of problems wouldnt have occured for SE or myself... so yeah, I stand dedicated to drawing attention to the fact that this game needs more tactics to handle this sort of thing.

So after over 100 tickets you suddenly chose to stop caring, but still managed to care enough to post in the forums about this and post on several other websites, hoping to catch Square Enix's attention? I'm not trying to sound mean but you're not fooling anyone. It is clear that you deeply care about this issue otherwise you wouldn't have harassed the support staff for months on end over an issue that can't even be considered harassment.

There's a reason why your over 100 tickets don't lead to anything. A person's character simply hanging around is not harassment. This is an MMORPG. If you want to be alone then close down your FC house or hide in an inn. If you don't like someone leaving messages on your FC Message book then close it down. It's not hard. There are tools in place to deal with these kinds of issues. You just aren't using them.

Yes, I hope to catch their attention to fix an issue, not slap my stalker. It's very clear that wasnt going to happen, so absolutely I came to the forums to advocate for prevention. If SE cant take something as serious as in-game to irl stalking seriously, then they really need to make some changes. 100% I do not think anyone should have to change the way they play a game because of someones actions. Especially if they did try to avoid this person by blacklisting and name changing.
I really dont have to explain my thought process on this to you though; you're free to disagree and Im always up for a debate but I stand firm on this.

There is no issue. There is only you being upset that someone is simply existing in your space. If you don't like dealing with other people in an MMORPG, you are playing the wrong game.
