Teleport Trade Cancels Need to Stop

[DrWho2010]

People will always be trolls. There is a small delay between cast finishing and the actual teleporting itself where you can interrupt someone. Just report them and move on.

...people on Famfrit apparently really have nothing to do with their life if that's how they spend their free time.

That said - if somebody does interrupt you - report them. Not only they will get their deserved strike or ban - reports, especially when they happen often for the same issue, are one of the main ways to tell DevTeam that something is 100% wrong. Let's get real here - EN Forum General Discussions section is a huge mess of spamming same topic new threads every day, and unless your thread gathers some considerable amount of upvotes and comments - they simply won't notice it in this horrendous landfill where 85% of the threads go into oblivion after being up for 1 day.

Interrupting somebody's teleport with trade is almost an exploit, so if reported enough - they should pay their attention to the issue, with either fixing it (though I suspect it works as intended right now) or making it an officially reportable harassment (which is it already I believe, but formal warning can make trolls reconsider their actions if they don't want to get permabanned).

I've literally only had actual friends do this in game to try to mess with me... never once had it done by a stranger.

I have to wonder why you specifically are getting so many trades canceling teleports that you're now making a thread asking for this to be addressed...

Yeah, this. I've had FC mates goof off with me by trading me as I try to teleport, but it's not something that happens often.

A tiny part of me would want to do it again if I knew it would make someone flip out, though.

Square-Enix ... Yoshi-P ... When in the world is this going to get removed? I'm tried of people Trading me while I am teleporting to another area in game which in turn cancels the teleport...
Asking them not to do it, doesn't work.

I though this was removed during a patch ages ago... I cant even teleport to my PHousing without getting abuse with trades while teleporting.

I've never had this happen to me.

I wonder why it's happening to you so very often.

[Lumivyory]

How do you run into this situation this often?
I only ever get interrupted or do that myself to my friends that I know will laugh it off.

If these people don't stop even when you ask them then you definitely should report them because I imagine you're not the only one being bothered by these guys. And if you all report them they'll get a warning and stop or face more serious consequences for harassing.

[Vyrerus]

The only person who's ever interrupted my teleport is my friend Dameion. Literally nobody else has ever approached me for trade at time of teleport. I don't think it's a big enough issue for them to look at it.

Trading someone mid-action is also the way most people mess up bots and their script.. if your getting as many trades to mess with your gameplay as your saying maybe your doing something people think is bot like?

[Erendis]

I had this happen to me in ARR times when someone I do not know harrased me by trading me to stop teleport. They even followed me as I changed zones. In the stress of the situation I forgot completely about /busy...
After that I have not had this happen until recently when someone stopped my teleport with trade after a hunt. I did not even notice it at first because I hit teleport and swapped windows, only to be surprised that I hadn't teleported. Then they stopped my teleport the second time before porting away. Enjoy your report, whoever you were...

I once had someone harass me like this for a solid 15 minutes in Limsa Lominsa until I figured out I could exit through gate to the rest of the world and teleport before they could follow me and commence trade. Needless to say I reported them. That's also literally the only report I've filed.
