Enemy List

There needs to be some sort of enemy list for me to remember all the offensive people in this game. We had three wood trees at Nicosa and specifically told these people not to cut them down yet they go ahead and do it right in front of me. So I decide to plant more but am out of beans, so I grab some from the auction then while waiting for the beans to arrive another person comes along and digs away all the dirt.

  • For the right price, I will spend a day splanking them.

  • These aren't low level players either :( "Bendy" is the one that killed the trees. "Johnny" removes all my notes telling people not to kill them as soon as I drop them.

  • So report those people, and stop planting trees right in front of them. Having an enemies list seems counter-productive to the intentions of this game and guidelines for play. 

    If you really want to spend a lot of time keeping track of people you don't like, do it the way most insane villains do, and keep a pen and paper document. That way you can cross of each name one by one. Y'know, when the time comes.*

    * Just in case: this last paragraph is entirely tongue in cheek.

  • Let's not devolve into a circular argument about what's offensive and what isn't. The bottom line is that the OP is pissed off (understandably so), and is attempting to come up with a productive way to cope with his/her frustration.

    An enemies list probably isn't the way to go, however. I know a lot of people are reluctant to report users for behavior that irritates them, when it doesn't cross the line into overtly abusive/inappropriate. However, if something is going on that's really upsetting you - and stuff like that could certainly be considered griefing - PLEASE report it.

    On the flip side, you're in a public area. It's obnoxious for people to harvest/poison trees you've JUST planted, but it's also a shared space. You have no more or less right to have trees there than anyone else. It's somewhat telling that you keep trying to plant trees in front of these people (basically inviting them to piss you off more by continuing with their jerkish behavior). 

    Before it escalates to that point and you're seeing red, report them and move on. Ur's a big old world, and there's plenty of room for you to have fun in another place until the find people of TS see fit to deal with jerks. 

    TL;DR? Report jerks. They will be dealt with much faster than if you wait around for karma.

    Might I also suggest modifying your post(s) to remove the names of people involved? Not the best approach. A repot ticket is vastly more appropriate.

  • Edited the post. The thing is, I completely understand that it is just their way of playing the game, they are not exactly breaking the rules of the game so reported them would be futile. It's more of a matter of having a list of people that do not agree with you such that you know better next time.

    This shouldn't be a public list, but rather a marker on their name or something that appears only to you. It'll set off a red flag or something so you know when trouble is around.

  • Actually, the best way to deal with people that you have such major disagreements with is to block them.  However, I have in fact blocked a few folks, and do not see anywhere that I can review the list of people I have blocked.  This means if we manage to reconcile, perhaps while penitently squishing grapes together in Hell, I cannot unblock someone.  If I am unsure who I've blocked, I can't see the list (if it's somewhere, it's too well hidden).  I think the Friends page should also provide a list of blocked players with an option to remove them from that list.  I think that might help the OP with their issue.
