Holy moly, you might actually be right. I had a big falling out with an old guild of mine months ago that I was very active in — the timings actually line up really well now that I think about it. Possible mystery solved!(?) You're actually a genius, my dude. Edit: Would also make sense with the timeslots matching up given we were both late night OCE players..... this is wild wow lol.

Thank you all for the advice on opening a ticket to report — I had no idea you were able to report people via support tickets (I assumed the little right click dialogue box was the only avenue)! I'll be sure to do that next time it happens. Thank you again and be blessed with good RNG! 🥰

I'm thinking it's possible I'm not the only person who's been targeted — when I had the commander unblocked originally, they were sh*t slinging and calling out multiple people by name in chat for not performing well on Arc(?), so I'm betting it's possible that instead of it being a situation where I'm singled out it's more of a "be mean to everyone who doesn't meet X standards" thing. But I agree it's really bizarre, hence why I came to the forums for advice (this is my first post here); I'm usually ambivalent to toxic players and just laugh or ignore them, but this has been just such a bonkers situation for me, that I've never experienced before.

I do go out of my way not to respond to anyone who says my name in chat, the frustrating part is it's a different player every time. So even though I'm constantly blocking and reporting folks saying negative things to me, it starts up again the next time I play. Who knows, maybe I'll end up blocking and reporting the entire guild eventually, haha! My plan now is to move servers ASAP when SoS opens. Though I hear there's a restructuring beta coming up this week, so I'll get to play with my guildies which will be an awesome change of pace! ^w^

Hi! I was looking for some advice from the more seasoned WvW players! I'm one of those PvE players who pops into WvW to farm out GoB's and clovers, but I do really enjoy WvW! It's a lot of fun. I enjoy roaming. I run a Marauder Reaper. Recently I've run into a pretty weird situation! — I was running around near a public tag just doing whatever when the commander in team chat goes "Who is that (guild tag)", figured maybe they didn't like people being out of squad near them, so I joined on tag. Was running with them for a bit, a few team fights etc etc. I ended up using soul spiral (reaper) on a downed player (a bit erroneous, I know!) and the commander called me out, by name, in map chat saying how I was a terrible low dps reaper (+ some other stuff I cannot repeat in the forums)! Fair enough, I suppose. I let them know I was new and I'm sorry if I've made a mistake. (Note this comm had no guild VC listed or anything). Got kicked from squad (fair enough! It's their squad) and thought nothing more of it and blocked the commander. The issue started cropping up when I came back to WvW in the following days. Each time I would play (solo roaming only), someone in map chat would call me out by name and say how bad of a reaper/player I was. Okay, weird, no worries, I'll just block and move on! I started noticing it would happen after I ran into a player with the same guild tag as that toxic commander. So everyday for quite awhile now I've been blocking folks, but I must admit it's getting quite draining! Having someone say rude things about me in map and/or team chat everyday for weeks when I'm literally just minding my own business is really hard to navigate, because even if I block I still get the negativity. I can only play during one timeslot due to my busy schedule so unfortunately playing at a different time of day just isn't possible, and I enjoy WvW's game loop so it's not like I'm going to quit the gamemode entirely. My current solution is that I've taken to playing on DBL since I see a total of one, maybe two people in there when I solo roam and it's usually enemy players (side note I really enjoy DBL, it's such a fun map! props to the designers). I'm also looking to move servers to the one my guild uses since I don't have any friends that play on my home server. It's just currently full. Stuck between a rock and a hard place, aye? I suppose what I'm looking for is a bit of advice on how you personally would navigate this situation if it was happening to you? You awesome WvW veterans have probably seen it all by now and would know better how to navigate a bizarre situation like this one. Thanks! <3
