How to Report Tea-bagging?

LEB_TOLSTOI · April 2

hello guys! So many times i reported people for tea-bagging with video. But Supports ignored.
Can u tell me how to report correctly?
What i should choose in report panel?
Should i first ask connect me with real support, or just instantly use link with video?
Can i glue 3-4 videos or should be different link?
Should me YouTube link, right?

Good luck. I don't think ZOS ever takes action against teabaggers, although they should. These players are almost always toxic in other ways too.

Yes, multiple youtube videos of the offense might help, but don't count on it.

As far as I know ZOS will never tell you what happened as a result of reporting other players, no matter how you do it. For 'minor' things like tea bagging it might not be obvious what was done, it's unlikely to be a permanent ban and there's no way to see if someone else was temporarily banned or got a warning or whatever.

the stance zos takes on t-bagging is it is counted as harassments only if it is repeated by the same player even after you ask them to stop

so if a player t-bags you, and you tell them to not do it again, and then they continue repeating the action, then your more likely to see a result (you have to have proof of every instance + the part where you asked them to stop)

so reporting after the first instance, unlikely to have anything happen, reporting after telling them to stop but they continue doing it, more likely to actual have some action taken

... please, what is 't-bagging'?' in this context.

I've asked people not to do it before and it feels so surreal to have to type out lol. It certainly shouldn't be required to do if the player is a stranger.

I'd say the stance zos takes is fair. To be honest I don't see the issue with t-bagging if it's a single occurrence. I mean, it's a player pressing his/her ctrl key a couple of times, not like it has any consequences for me if they do that. I consider it the equivalent of scoring the winning point when playing <insert favorite sport> and yelling "In your face <insert favorite insult>" at your opponent. Doesn't mean you can't shake hands and share a beer after.

Treat is as they are praising you that you did a good job. Same as hate whispers.

The best is when this happens when I play a non meta build.

Exactly that. I personally prefer to use the "bury" gesture or the gesture with the broom, but the tea bag gesture is the quickest, which is why it is probably used in most cases.
If someone gives me a good fight, they also get a "salute" gesture from me

People need to grow a thicker skin.

When you whisper someone to stop doing an act you don't like how many of those you whisper actually see the message? Many in PVP go in "Offline" mode so you can't whisper them. I know I never pay attention to the chat box in PVP.

Your way of reporting things (support Ticket including video proof) seems fine.

If reported behaviour leads to disciplinary action is only for zos to decide tho.

So, just move on after reporting whatever annoyed you.

Offense is subjective. Many pvpers take no issue with being teabagged. Maybe even the majority just don’t care. Certainly most teabaggers aren’t doing it with the intent to mimic assault but to acknowledge a hard fought win or to celebrate the death of a hated enemy or toxic build. Sometimes to mock friends or teammates for an inglorious death. It’s a longstanding tradition in pvp games and it’s generally understood that no deeper meaning and no implicit malice.

Zenis policy has that in mind. Most players don’t care so there’s no action taken most of the time. If you are bothered you are obligated to say so, and the people you ask not to are expected to be respectful and not do it to you anymore. I think that’s a good balance.

Your request only extends to yourself. You can the AD Xv1 gank squad to stop bagging YOU. You can’t ask them to stop altogether and if you see the bagging me because they hate me specifically and my FOTM sorc annoys them, you don’t get to be offended on my behalf and report them.

There's multiple people that got banned for it. ZOS just doesn't communicate it.
