Griefing with an emote

[Zoeila]

i tea bag people by jumping on them repeatedly. but i dont do it to brag. i do it when i see a corpse that appears to be hanging around to long to see what the winning team is doing. usually gets them to leave pretty quick.

Here is a tip for those who are having issue this type of behaviour:

Resize your spawn timer window, enlarge it to 140%. The window is big enough to cover yourself and whoever is doing this emote on you.

He he, if this makes them feel better. To be honest, if you dont like getting emote spammed, probably better just stick with group. Although this is technically not an official confirmation, but Mr. Morboro did not respond to one of JP thread in regard to this issue. This is not really a player harrassment since emote message is disabled and there is no evidence the emote is used on any player..

It's the most appropriate if anything.

False. The only appropriate thing now involves Realm Reborn Red.

Tea baggin etc is disrespectful and dishonorable. Just like desecrating a dead body, but I don't expect some of you to understand what sportsmanship, honor, or respect is. Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

Have you ever considered the fact that the developers are Japanese and to them it may be disrespectful? We are talking a bout a society that has historically taken discipline and respect seriously. And some wonder why there is a separate JP server or why in FFXI most JP did not want to play with NA (Americans).

i think you're thinking too deeply about this. the teabagging is towards other players, not devs. so why would a dev feel disrespected? and i'm pretty sure most NA players know very little if next to nothing about Japanese culture to even care about putting discipline and respect in game.

Brick wall if you just don't get it. Doesn't matter if it is not directed towards the developers, they apparently don't approve of it if that is the gist in the end. In FFXI there was usually non JP player whining that they couldn't get a pt during JP prime time. Never stopped to think maybe it was because of their lack of respect which included racist jokes or comments, not to mention WWII references. Having lived in 2 other countries and experiencing some of the cultures, I do get it. Point I think some are trying to make, sure you won, doesn't mean you have to be unsporting. I would have more respect for another player who showed class rather than one who gloated.

A fighting game I play (Japanese, if its relevant to the above comments) somewhat recently got patched to completely to shut-out inputs immediately after a K.O. from what used to be a second or so after you K.O. your opponent because some people get ridiculous with disrespecting downed opponents.

I actually welcomed that sort of adjustment.


But if you're playing an MMO, you can't censor yourself from every single rude gesture and any work-around people can find to insult you. Be glad that the extent of it is just emotes and not continuing to attack downed opponents. In fact, in a lot of competitive (fighting) games, the winner sometimes/usually makes provoking or sometimes downright disrespectful comments. It's sorta in the nature of "competitive" conflicts.
