So, I was minding my business doing my vale dailies and I realize its the CTA and a horde player comes to gank me. Nothing new /shrug. I fight him and he doesn’t take much damage, thought he was blood but he was a frost dk who outgeared me =/ so I let him kill me and he does emotes. I don’t mind anyone killing me but when the emotes happen, I start the emote war.
So I go back to my spot and start gathering more loot for the daily and he comes back to gank me 
then I laugh at him before my demise at least 8 times. I guess that’s enough for him to get salty because while I was dead I saw him fly on top of a cliff and phase thinking that was the end of his ganking.
Well, not really… He creates a new DK on stormrage on the Alliance Faction with the same name and starts talking trash. I try not to respond but it’s funny he had to come to me to get his point across and try to be heard which is a sign he’s not so different from any toxic player…
And note he did outgear me 40 ilvls as I was just simply doing dailies, lol. It does prove that emotes hold value if people perceive them as insults. I just simply did what he did. As a warrior, if you cast a spell or cast an insult at me, I will spell reflect it back :).
Sure, I should have ignored him from the start but all that jazz just to start drama? I think some players have a god complex and forget they are playing a video game. Could be the point of time or just the constant grinding of one video game but this really makes it hard to be nice sometimes. I’m really trying to be nice and I didn’t throw any insults/threats but my point is… Emotes can hold value to those who perceive it as such. If simply spamming a laugh at someone can cause them to be hostile then what do we do? Logically, just ignore them. Emotionally, deal with the problem. Or a proposal, get rid of cross-faction emotes.
Note:I have pictures to prove it but it will not let me link gyazo links in the forums =/
