You can get BANNED? for pvp?

Standard way to generate money in EVE Online. But I’ve never heard of anyone doing it here.

I don’t “gnome” period. :grin:

You should try it sometime, there’s no other race I would rather punt.

Tbh this gnome was the only one I ever made until they added gnome hunters. Had to have a gnome hunter with mechanical squirrels as pets

Hmm, Personally I would leave the game allowing extortion.

Read up on Angwe. People would pay him to gank their friends. He had quite a racket going on in Vanilla. He never got banned or in trouble

He’s the rogue I aspire to be.

It’s amusing to me that you’re not okay with extortion in a game, but are okay with murder.

I’d think the fact you’re being killed repeatedly and camped would be more of a problem than someone offering you a chance to end it for a price.

Alas, I don’t think it’d be much of a problem in Classic, considering you can’t chat or trade cross faction. Unless you’ve got a friend or 2nd account on the opposite faction and somehow have a use for that gold… I don’t see the point of extorting someone you’re camping.

I remember back in vanilla, a group of alliance held hostage a number of Flightmasters. They wouldn’t kill them, just tag them an kept them busy so they couldn’t be used. Went on for weeks, nothing was done to those players. If I recall, they demanded like 5000 gold for their release.

Simple because next step will be asking for a paypal transfer. And I have so little faith in humanity (And even less in players in online games) that I think this could happen

Eh. Unless they’ve made like a full time job of killing a particular NPC there really should not be an issue. But this is definitely one of the reasons I’ve never stayed on a PVP server for long.

Can find this in the PvP plans at the top of the forum.

That game is all about getting ahead in any way you can and things like extortion and scamming are tolerated, if not even encouraged.

Actually I’ve never experienced it.

I ALWAYS played on PvP servers and in BfA my warmode is always ON on all toons.

I was playing Paladin in vanilla. So you could camp me for maximum of my remaining CD on hearthstone. And usually it was UP most of the time as I was rarely going back to the city

  • me /2 sellling < Amazin BoE > for 75g
  • Someone “I’ll take it”
  • me : Ok, I’ll mail it to you in COD
  • “OK”
  • Mailing a lin tissue gift wrapped

Yes, this was always the rule when I played. I don’t know if it was ever changed, but hopefully will be the rule once again for Classic.

Someone killing your flight master/quest giver/whatever? Get some help if you can’t do it yourself and kill the griefer.

:smiley: Pretty much.

Never was.

Not if you are outnumbered 20 to 1.

Yup, and people have earned suspensions and bans for doing that. That’s one of the reasons why Blizzard doesn’t allow Gift Wrapped packages in the mail anymore.

Yes. Blizzard always had double standards.
It’s even LESS critical then camping.
• Camping : Y ou make your target lose real life time
• Gift wrapping : Only some gold
