Months of harassment

[AngelCheese77]

Unfortunately, SE doesn't accept 3rd party evidence. So it would be a moot point. Not that I'm against you recording this behavior, just wanting to let you know it won't amount to a whole lot.

Thankfully with recordings, I can take screenshots within the chat. I can still get something to use, like dates and times and names and servers. If it is one person doing it over multiple names, if I can capture them, I can at least write them down.

Might as well try. I always keep my expectations low with SE. LOL

Oh, also he is aware of this thread because he's been spamming the URL for this thread.

IMO there should be a system where saying slurs in a public chat is an automatic, instant account mute and/or ban. Especially for new accounts. Or, they could enable a sort of "slow mode" in the chat for new accounts. Don't know what their code can and can't handle, though.

I have a hunch this guy might just be using a bot of some sort to do the spamming because they're unusually persistent and I've seen it happening pretty much every time of day, even in the dead hours of morning.

Holy shit that is bad. I usually roll my eyes when I see terms like harassment being thrown around, but yeah no, this is well and truly above and beyond any kind of reasonable behaviour.

Wish I could do something to help but I'm both in another dataserver and don't engage with the NN.

Maybe if the novice network and mentor system was an actual useful thing and not some kinda glorified chat room this kind of stuff wouldn’t happen. Instead you all just want your Burger King crowns as a badge of honour. Zero sympathy

I mean, I got my "Burger King Crown" out of a desire to communicate with and help newer players, as that's something I do within my FC as an Officer. To come in and declare that we are unworthy of sympathy purely because some mentors are poor is in extremely poor taste, especially coming from someone on another DC that doesn't have to see this day in and day out. You can make assumptions all you like with the knowledge of your own DC, but without coming to ours and seeing that the bulk of our mentors are well-meaning, all it is is an assumption. I'm positive every DC has crappy mentors, or mentors that have the crown but don't make use of the NN at all, but the ones who do in my server are primarily helpful and polite, if a bit joke-y and meme-y at times. And I think that's okay. I don't think the bulk of us have done anything that would deserve the denial of basic empathy for an exceedingly crappy situation.

If nothing else, think of the impact this has on new players. Someone picks up the free trial, wants to dip their toes in this game that a lot of us seek solace in, just to be greeted by a torrent of slurs and absolutely disgusting behaviour overall. If nothing else, *they* deserve better than that.

I can't speak for other server's, but NN on Adamantoise was great for helping players with useful advice, pointing out how to find stuff out, answering questions, etc (I say 'was' solely due to the fact it's been a long time since I've been on NN, but it's always been helpful when I've been on it - multiple times over the years, and for months at a time). So while there might be a whole bunch of ppl all around who don't care and just want the symbol & mount from it... don't label everyone like that.

Also, you might scoff at Mentor's.... but what about the new players who are basically having their experience ruined by this person? So it's ok for new players to have the game spoiled, to be abused & harrassed just to get at those bad, bad mentors?

Your attitude smells just like the person doing this garbage. Taking a look at what they are saying, what I remember them saying (when I was still in NN on various characters... they've actually been around a long, long time)... exact same rubbish thought as what your saying.

what does your weird cynical and overly zealous outlook on the mentor system and the novice network have to do with someone spamming racial slurs on alt accounts unmitigated? do you have some kind of special insight into this freak's psyche that we don't?

like are you actually going to pretend there was never ever a question asked there that was genuinely asked by a sprout, which was answered by a mentor? why the hell else would it exist, and why does it matter that much to you if mentors end up talking to each other there when there aren't questions to be answered? can you explain in what way, your feelings on the matter aren't just as or far more pretentious than desiring an icon? the crafter one isn't even necessarily hard to get; but they all get access.

and that's giving your thoughts on it like a modicum of credence, which it doesnt deserve in the first place considering the novice network here more or less always answers any question any sprout has asked in it, or eachother's questions, returners, usually politely, etc. other than this one obsessed tool, it's actually a relatively wholesome and helpful network here, so I have honestly no idea what in the world you're referring to
