On the subject of keepig the peace (The Grand Hunt)

Honestly if anything you should be given a tap for trying to abuse the report system to get players punished for playing within the rules of the system. GMs have told you this person isn't breaking the rules and yet you very clearly admit to trying to isolate and excommunicate them. People are not beholden to your arbitrary personal code of conduct. Your opinions and desires are no more valid than theirs - and while they might be a jerk; they're certainly not the one trying to abuse the game to punish someone else for literally no reason.

So you will back up a player whose sole intent is to ruin the gaming experience for everyone else, pulls S ranks into them to force them into combat and even getting players killed in the process, and then makes snarky comments after just to be a jerk? Glad I'm not on Balmung!

How do you know their sole intent is to MPK?

That's rarely the intent of those who pull as soon as possible. They pull as soon as possible because they want to go back to doing other things.

If you have some specific evidence that MPK is the intent (such as snarky comments alluding to player death made after the fact), then by all means report it. Reporting someone just because they pulled a hunt? No. That's you being petty.

No, I'm against people who seem to think they invent and control the rules. I, frankly, do not care what this player is doing because it very clearly doesn't go against the rules and doesn't impact me at all. You're free to try and convince people that this behavior is wrong and cast all the moral judgements you want - but throwing a tantrum and trying to have them punished by rules that don't exist is pretty inexcusable behavior. They are the ones playing by the rules, you are not. If you don't want to be killed by an S rank hunt when it engages in combat, stop standing idle by one and expecting the world to conform to your arbitrary and entirely personal rules. I reiterate: no one else is compelled to be beholden to them. Given your attitude and response to my post I highly doubt they're making snarky responses "just to be a jerk" either - but instead responding to people, like yourself, who are mass false flag reporting them and replying with overt hostility. In which case I dare say snark is hardly the least they could do. They aren't the jerk in this scenario. Your ego is astronomical and you need to get over yourself.

You know what? I'M DONE! >.> All I hear day after day after day is numerous people in multiple linkshells and across the data server complaining in shouts about this one guy for months and getting angry with him. I've taken the full weight of their complaints to make reports ingame and posting in this forum, NOT FOR PEOPLE LIKE YOU TO CRITICIZE ME! I am SICK of people like you, I am SICK of people like them, I am SICK of people like him! Go ahead and give him all your love and support, I'm sure you'll continue to praise him when he comes to your data server in 6.0 and does the same thing there as he's done here. Enjoy having your game ruined. But IF HE EVER forces me to get engaged in combat I WILL REPORT HIM FOR MPK, and I don't give 2 hoots what you think.
