Should people making fireworks shows be also dumped to dashboard, per the explanation below?

Xbox NA - just went to talk to glirion for the champ daily, and it sounded like suddenly some people started binge-casting area effects. As he was going into his opening lines, the game crashed to dashboard.

If the people who flood certain problem areas with effects also got dumped out for their spam, perhaps they might stop acting like monkeys who just discovered that the little toggle on the wall makes the round thing on the ceiling create light?

Oh, in b4 "why so salty?" Derp.

Yes - If I've been crashed to the dashboard because of people creating a fireworks show, crash them too.

No - If I've been crashed to the dashboard because of people creating a fireworks show, I will just suck it up and relog.

    Dropping people for spamming abilities sets a dangerous precedent and with the glitchy implementation of everything ZOS makes, they risk horrid bugs (can you imagined getting dropped because you spammed a move in combat?)

    If this is anything like the morons on PC that like to spam at the bank or near crafting stations, ZOS has confirmed that this is harassment and they can and should be reported for this.

    People who repeatedly have nothing better to do than disrupt other people's game by showing such stupidity can and are getting banned for it, and rightly so.

    If enough people report them, they will be banned for harassment.

    The poll choices aren't ideal.
    On Xbox the larger reasons any of us crash are often more related to existing and long existing issues the devs have decided not to resolve.

    I'd be careful suggesting it's other players casting because if so, then this means in PvP a 25 man group or two 25 man groups would cause others to crash just the same. If so then that's not other people causing you to crash but poor game design elements.

    If it's with the intent to disrupt others aka grief then sure report away. People like myself though may just shoot off skills for fun and see how others respond but do not do it with malicious intent. For example, I like seeing who will chase after my orbs to pop them lol

    I wished they used that £1 000 000 instead of giving it away.. Pay or get more staff to tend to bug fixing :/
    Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 25 DLCs. 41 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game.

    Wasn't that giveaway for getting voted MMO of the year? That is, it wasnt their money but a prize they had to give away?

    Well, the problem is, you'd risk getting people who do it by accident. I've seen more than one person accidentally drop a Nova or a Standard on the banker.

    A better solution is to make certain areas safe zones where no abilities can be cast. Inside banks, at the undaunted area, and around wayshrines in towns. That would solve most of it.

    Plus they already have the coding, with "Silence" or the ability suppression purple in quest dialog zones in Imperial City.

    I think this would be the best solution.

    I would also propose adding the immediate area around undaunted enclaves to the list, as well.

    Sometimes on console tthe spamming at the Undaunted enclave can be so that other's looking to group up can see what you are, ie a person in a costume with 2 swords could be a sorc/ nb magick dps or a stam dps or a healer, if i'm looking for just a healer the guy spamming heals is a candidate, or if i'm looking for say a stam dps the guy spamming caltrops, endless hail, steel tornado would be the one to choose.
    Might help when text chat comes.
    The areas are laggy and take long to load even when there's no one there to spam aoes etc

    Please tell me you do not have a source for this nanny-state nonsense.
    Even on the internet, clear communication is important; it can be the difference between "helping your Uncle Jack off a horse" and "helping your uncle jack off a horse"; the difference between "knowing your s***" and "knowing you're s***".

    Problem with that is Guards and killable NPCs. We would have nothing to work with there except basic attacks.

    Really though they need to just create a mechanic that locks our ability bars when inside a hub city. That sounds like itd be much easier for everyone.
