Can We Get Sore Loser Chat Fixed?

I personally don't like blocking people but it is easy to "block" someone in WvW and that way you know who they are then you can troll them. This is what is happening here and there to me and I am sure others. Can we just get it fixed that NO ONE can know who you really are and avoid the whole toxicity of sore losers? That would be AWESOME!

Would be nice to have an option where your friends only list can whisper you in game. There's some very angry dramatic players in wvw for sure that go nuts if you beat them 1v1. At times it is funny, others its a little weird and concerning that somebody would go to that level from a pixel fight.

this would be interesting, that and confirmation when some one add u to their friend list

I find being super friendly and happy in my replies to these guys is a great way of dealing with them.Not even sarcastic. Just "Oh nice fight, do you want to try again? That was awesome!"And then bow.And the angrier they get, the nicer and more complimentary I get.

I suggested it as a new player before I understood that commanders use it to communicate with opposing raids to set up fights.

I want them to make a better way for enemy commanders to communicate, because atm GvG needs this feature.

I can understand your frustration. People get the same in PvP, with only the block function to protect them, it happens in Raids, fractals, and somewhat it open world.

Toxicity while crappy, is a part of an MMO. Ignore, take it as a win, block, whatever you need to do.

I don't know. I wouldn't be opposed to a change, but I think there is more they should do with the mode, and to me, in my small world, this is low priority.

Frigging hate when somebody block me. We kill spellbreaker 5 vs 1 fight and try to ask him how he manage lose and dude just block me.

I would rather them fix the trash balance first, i tend to have Pirvate messages hidden in its own window. Learnt from the past with all the hate messages and people moaning. Now i just see it and doesnt bother me.

Right now, someone can /block → whisper → avoid responses. The OP proposes ANet changes that so the system becomes whisper → /block → avoid responses. Seems like extra work with ultimately little benefit.

I'm all in favor of ANet revisiting the friends list/LFG/block systems, including invisibility (your yellow dots still show to your guild; your location still appears to friends and people who have blocked you). But I'd hate for them to waste time on high-effort/low-value minor changes while we wait.

I'm pretty sure you don't appear on anyone's list if you are set to invisible... Not sure about the yellow dot of guildies tho.

Try it.

The friends list needs it so you can have Invisible/Away/Online/Busy (Red status which only allows people on your friends/guilds list to PM you)

I always pre-block them ? cause you can tell a toxic/salty players when you see one. Luls

of course that had to come from necro and mesmer one button insta kill macro exploiter... don't cheat like a noob if you don't want to get caught and be flamed for it.

I will not be able to troll Scourge bomb guilds from T2 servers that are spawn camping people every single day ?What a shame...

One way blocks will never do a thing to make the game more civil.

Aw did a Mesmer kill you then bow?

The nerve being polite! Lol

I don’t use macros.

Options->MessagingBlock private messages by default in (you will receive a notification that a user is trying to message you):[PvE] [checkbox][PvP] [checkbox][WvW] [checkbox]

** User has attempted to private message you. Accept [y/n]?

Otherwise messaging will appear as normal.

PS- forgot to add, maybe useful for people with invis status that might want to choose to receive/reply message

lol a new tool for Maguuma :)

Middle of big fight, and a giant Y/N appears on your screen.

Over and over again.

It can be easily made to only show once And the y/n can be done like /accept in chat. An example is like mode +g on efnet irc servers. No big Y/N is supposed to appear in the middle of the screen, the notification is in the form of text in your chat window where all chats are happening.

** User is attempting to message you. Type /accept user if you want to open a chat with them

I am not proposing anything what you said. Here is what I suggest, that the opponent has no ability to "right click" player and "block" so they can then "chat" with that person. No reprogramming the whole chat...just remove that option of right clicking the opponent in WvW and PvP for that matter then they can't spam you. Case dismissed :)

Balance is in the eye of the beholder and an ongoing festival that will never end :P

All the opponent has to do is right click you and "block" even if you are set to invisible. You still appear on their just not shown to be "online". You can still send whisper.

All in all some great replies after leaving this sit for a few days I thought for sure I was gonna get lamb basted.

Just an FYI, I never respond to those who whisper in this manner posted. Some however keep at it and then I block until I am done and then unblock after I leave the area.

To be fair to both of us, you didn't actually propose anything specific. You just said "fix." We both assumed it was clear what you were proposing.

I doubt that ANet would remove the ability of opponents to chat. Lots of people like being able to meet folks from other teams. Besides, it's already possible to block those who you don't want to hear from.

I still don't get the issue, even though this topic comes up from time to time. As noted, it's easy to block people if they're being annoying. Whispering across servers isn't always negative, and (in my experience) it's frequently positive.

If it's already easy to block the negative, what's the point of a change that takes away the positive?

What are u talking about ? There is NO fkin balance in WvW / PvP so if some bunch of build carried players steamrolling others(love the 2vs1 bs going on since ppk) and get whispered bcz of they deserve it .. deal with it or stop this bs behaviour is my recommendation sweety :)

depends, Did you kill someone from behind while they were watching a duel, and otherwise being a total ass,?
