Three or four days this past week we have seen organized Horde intentionally blocking the portals in Shat using large mounts, i.e Bear, kodo etc.
While I appreciate inconveniencing the other faction on our PvP server, this goes beyond what I would consider acceptable conduct because there is no recourse available as this is a neutral zone. This also hurts Horde players as well considering they blocked the Isle portal.
I’m not one to call for banning players just because they are “trolling”, but this cannot constitute as ‘good conduct.’ Please either allow us to attack in Neutral zones, make this a punishable offense, or place a faction guard near the portals that have a knockback like Aldor/Scryer rise.

I don’t see the issue. Usually you can pay them to move aside. This game is all about creative ways of farming gold, good for them.

Make an alt and transfer a Shatt Portal fund to a Horde alt and park them in Shatt like everyone else.

Yes, let me pay 40 Horde to all move together and trust each one of them moves after they get their gold.
And if they do not move, I what- Report them? lol

Just go first person perspective and click the portal… you’re acting as if this is the biggest problem in the game.

Did they get rid of not being able to create a character on the opposite faction on pvp servers?
Now this sounds like a community worth saving from the horror of LFD.

Yes they recently allowed PvP servers to make both factions on the same server
Like a ransom? To use our own portals? KEK
Zoom in? Shouldn’t have to.
No, I have a reporting macro and I log on my mage to advertise free portals while I’m doing that.
I am all for pvp, but sanctuary griefing is not pvp

Just zoom in and click the portal. Lol or point you’re camera at the ground aimed up and stand on top of the portal, then click.
Lol sorry clicking 1 button is such an inconvenience. I hope you’ve never played on a PvP realm. Kek
I am on Grobb, good of you to notice. With how frequently this occurs, it is a legitimate inconvenience and realistically, working the camera around 20-40 of them is A LOT harder than you think.
But as I said, I have a mage for that so I don’t bother.
It’s the principle of the matter. This is childish and pathetic conduct and should not be tolerated.
Why do you think that in later versions of the game they block opposite factions from entering each other’s area of the sanctuary, and put clipping walls around npcs so you can’t stand on top of them?

work top up or down angles.
retail gets this issue with the butthats that need to whip out large mount by the AH/bank mailbox by the SW fountain. and the say valentines event npcs. can’t even blame other side “griefing” for that. that’s the same side being idjuts lol.
Basically you try to induce a glitchy angle you might see it. the irony of trying to get “see all” visual glitch is no lost upon some players lol.
Better report them. Show them who’s boss.

Or maybe, people could just let us play the game as intended.

Perhaps you can try to persuade them through suggestive dance?

This is not a petty concern, this is a legitimate issue that is causing problems that there is no recourse for. Horde/alliance killing questgivers? Fine- Get better friends to stop them. This is a true exploit which is being used in a way that the game was not intended to be.
Are there work arounds, possibly, but the next time I screenshot and video capture how effective “zooming in to first person” helps find that portal, you might get a little more perspective on what we have to deal with. It is not “works every time” easy.
Fix the issue or stop the players from doing it.
And “Pay a player so I can use something that Blizzard put in the game that is free”… really? Seriously? Until a few weeks ago, you could not even make a cross faction character on PvP servers. How can that even be considered as an option? I would rather start killing essential quest givers than pay someone so I can play the game I subscribe to.
