Today a family member of mine was fortunate enough to be played a cruel trick on, the trick, being told that a certain sombodies trade function was bugged only to be killed when they clicked duel, the person Drahlian. Now if this was not bad enough The chars controler then /tell my sibling OOC that this was just an RP she has thought up and she was not to take it personaly, when my family member (17 years old) told them that they was not bothered about the rp, but they way they went about it, she then blocked NIBELA from any further comunications.
Now we understand that in the name of RP anything is possible, but to then demoralise my sibling in an unkind manner OOC was uncalled for. She also accused me of being Nibelas controler when Nibela questioned her motives. The thing that gets me the most is that this Chars controler is obviously a long standing member of our community, so why be nice when RP threatened and then take it out of context OOC.
To this matter all i can say is shame on you, my char Jorelle had already heard of Drahlian from some upstanding Dwarfs of our community that had been harassed by said Diaboli.
So please learn the difference between IC and OOC and next time do not block someone that YOU harass before they get a chance to explain themselves.
You know who you are!!!

I\'m confused how dueling became involved with trading.

I dont like this RP. Just don\'t like it. I\'ve heard about lots of dwarves complaining, and i\'m one of \'em.

I don\'t understand exactly what happened....
If you have a complaint about another player, put together some screen shots and chat logs and send them to a GM via the forums after contacting on in-game or on IRC.

so if I understand this right?
They say they want to trade?
Instead of trading...they challenged but used an OOC {my trade window is bugged so just ignore what it says} in order to get dwarfs to except the challenge?
If that is the case...that is really nasty
But they claim it is all just RPing?
Wow....that\'s all I can say,

my thoughts too... not that i voiced them as clearly,
Drey idont get that post
Drey the person is shouty at the other person for \"demoraliseing\" the sibling...
Drey but i dont see where that bit happened
Drey all they did was ignore them
Bakuun Aye
Drey though im guessing that the bugged trade was possibly something to do with getting the person to accept a duel challenge
Drey but i dont know
Drey but if it is thats not rp...

tricking the newbs is wrong and cruel... don\'t scare the new guys away...

Fact is that you cannot excuse OOC actions with IC explanations.
From what I see, that person said that the trade was bugged and thus everytime trade is used the duel message is displayed, just to make the dwarf accept...

Zanzibar gave the right advice, ultimately. There is nothing we can do about this on the forums, but if you gather evidence (such as logs and screenshots, preferably from multiple sources), Game Masters will be able to take care of the situation. We do have a guide to reporting in-game abuse stickied in this very forum section, so this is something that you definitely should have looked at :)
Let\'s avoid making player complaint threads in the future, and turn to the source that can actually do something about such problems, given that you have evidence of some wrong-doing.
