Everyone knows it:

The battle in Cyrodiil is in full play.
You just defended your keep.

Time to turn in your Quest and get back to the battle before your group leaves or the next keep is lit.

:D
:o
:/
:(

On a good day:

Ona bad day:

and on a really bad day you keep hitting E and this shows up over and over again:

    Yep or when you go to a guild trader, hit E and steal some garbage he had near his tent and have to pay the guards.

    Oh, yeah, that happened to me once or twice. Wasted 200 gold, but that was also when I learned that Bleakrock Village is much better stolen from with Covenant around than Pact around.

    This is why I interact with things in first person. Third person people, listen up: If there is multiple things that can be interacted with, change to first person, and if that alone won't work, stay in first person and increase distance between you and the unwanted interactable object.
    If you can't handle the heat...stay out of the kitchen!

    thanks for the advice.
    but the whole point is that i run up fast at that board, turn in quest, grab a new one, get out fast

    -you see why i dont want to go in first person every time and *try* to hit the right point?
    they should just get rid of that freaking letter!

    and the way u can deny to attack innocent NPCs u should be able to set ur options to *never steal*

    easiest solution to such annoying stuff.
    and when it keeps happening it really can start to get to you at some point :3
    im sure my friends still remember that evening when i started a tirade of hate against this letter.

    Never originally had this problem in many of the earlier patches.

    My guess is that some sick prick in the dev team has an evil sense of humor and moved that note over 6 inches to the right so we always pick it up.
    Been here since Feb 2014 - You'd think I'd be half reasonable at this game by now...

    Lol... /signed. We're all usually in a hurry when turning in and picking up new bounties. I'm guessing I select that damn letter at least half the time... the other half is when I have to hoof it because the keep I just left to turn in the bounty got flagged in those 30 seconds.

    I have the same when getting a scroll quest from the scrollquest-giver. There is a note on her desk (DC) and everytime I read that !

    "I am a nightblade. Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."

    This bug drives me nuts as well, i made a video of it and sent it up to the community manager at ZoS who hopefully sent it over to QA and Devs to fix this damn bug, it seems so easy to fix right.

    Its been driving me nuts for over a year now.

    I hate that paper too. If you stand 1 meter away from the board it shows up. I plant my face on the board before pressing E. There is no vision of anything but the fricken board. Does anyone even read that? I doubt there is single person that can repeat what it says.
