How is this NOT harrasment/griefing?

[Yucie]

If Yucie DOES do that, i'll stab her/him for you.

Oh, he will too. That's a big reason why I don't do these things.

people who defend to the player r50 , please can you search and learn the word "solidarity" in your dictionary?
if we had more solidarity and less selfishness the community would be more nice, and also communication, please try use autotranslate or google translate (it is not good but some is some)

Sorry , my english is not very good, i hope people understand my message.

Don't you want to be protected, o my Gladiator/Paladin in a shining armor?

[GreyJorildyn]

Unfortunately the way people are, MMOs often take the route of protecting the player from themselves and others from everyone else, so instancing is the way to go. Behest is just poorly designed regardless and to have ridiculous achievements tied to them sounds like copypasta nonsense in that department.

Pretty sure there isn't a QA department over at SE, or at least not one with any sense of the world. If there was, this entire game would never have hit the shelves.

I don't think his level has relevance in the matter.
He can still side with lower level players against high level players. (Unless he is doing the same thing that lvl 50 was, and being a hypocrite, but you have no proof of that, so lets assume he isn't a hypocrite)

People surely dont get sarcasm

[Fiosha_Maureiba]

Chiming in here based only on the details of the OP.

I think the onus of communication is more on the veteran player going for the achievement than newer players (as the latter may not be aware that an achievement exists until they find the relevant achievement npc).

I would be more inclined to say it was a misunderstanding, but the level 50 leaving those last few mobs around rather than clearing the behest leave some questions on intent.

well cid you also have to remember that there are many of us that have every class to cap. the only thing left to do in game is getting achievements. the player did nothing against the rules. i'm not saying they went about it the right way or morally correct, but the question was "is this griefing" and that answer is no.

you've known me and many others that have all capped classes for a long time in game and know achievements is all that we have left until the cap raise. you also know me well enough to know i wouldn't do others that way nor do i condone others doing it, but i can't jump on anyone for doing something that's not against the rules. it's not that i'm defending the r50 taking the mobs, but i am defending the fact that according the rules they did nothing wrong.

[Jekyll]

While according to the rules they did nothing wrong. I do feel that he could've let OP at least claim the mobs then kill them so OP would've received exp.
