    You will not get banned, he's just being salty because of you breaking his RP immersion.

    I've met many RPers and most of them already know how to deal with the non cooperative folks

    I doff my cap to anyone who can RP in this game, but imo it's so shallow and void of any great depth that even if i was inclined to RP, I would find it very difficult to do so. Nothing whatsoever about other players griefing.

    Hmm.

    Khajiit she does not wholly understand the issue. At all times in life it possible to be standing by a wall that needs some repair. It is always possible that someone with a hammer may need to intervene in the crumbling masonry yes.

    On the other hand making the camel spit in the direction of this one or riding so the rear end of the horse is positioned uncomfortably close to the whiskers - that is no more acceptable in Tamriel than anywhere else this one she thinks.

    Just imagine the face he'll make when he gets a reply from ZOS, telling him to man up and put you on his ignore list instead :p

    um... yeah

    also why /hammer near someone?

    i mean if someone had done something that really annoyed me - well, maybe. but i don't think someone role playing would be sufficient provocation.

    I get that some people dislike role-playing, but is it really okay to intervene? Even if it isn't against the rules, it's kind of a lame thing to do in my opinion.

    First of all, if you were doing that to his character, yeah it can be considered player harassment, which is indeed against the terms of the TOS you and everyone else has signed. While I personally believe ZOS pretty much ignores player harassment, people have been sanctioned (temp bans) and/or literally removed from areas where they were deliberately disrupting the play of others in the past. Even if it was "just nearby" that is a noisy emote and you were probably very well aware it would be annoying to those playing there. It's pretty disingenuous to claim otherwise. Imagine you are trying to have a conversation with a friend and someone's kid is throwing a temper tantrum 2 feet away from you and their parent refuses to do anything about it. And since it's a little kid, YOU can't do anything about it either. So you are forced to leave. Imagine this happens to you, no matter where you are, every time you try to talk to any of your friends. That's what roleplayers get every single time they log in. After awhile you really start hating those people. The number one reason there has been a demand for player housing is simply so rolepayers have a place to go do their thing WITHOUT being harassed continuously by other players.

    And THAT is why roleplayers are "so sensitive and mad."

    So, you saw someone role-playing, and intentionally, purposely went close enough to make sure they saw you, and did something to interrupt/disrupt what they were doing.

    Gosh. I can't imagine why the role-players get upset. I mean, I'm sure that you were the only player ever who went and did something like that while the role-players were trying to play. Its not as though people constantly disrupt the rp for others.

    In case you can't tell, yes that was /sarcasm.

    I don't know why a group/guild that want to rp don't make a group so everything they type stays out of chat. It would give the people who think someone role-playing is offensive in some way no reason to start hammering near them. I can't understand why some players can't ignore the ones who want to rp. If they really bother someone that much, whisper them, ask them to group so their chat is private, or say you have a quest and you'll be gone as soon as you finish, then leave them alone. If they won't let you do what you have to for a quest or to get to the bank or trader or whatever, then you can report them.

    I predict a 3 day temporary ban, compounded by the evidence in this thread, followed by a whiny thread on how you're done with this game and it's unfair, followed by quietly getting on with things once your ban is lifted and you silently resent others in game without understanding why it all happened.

    I did this once when people were role-playing about Minotaur ***. I was told to "go f*** a bear".

    You shouldn't be /hammer - ing to people RPing and he shouldn't be so childish. Simple as that.
    I can understand him but i do not share his way of asking others for stop disturbing. I should open a whisper and just saying "please can you stop?"

    P.S: We aren't all as salty as this guy. Please don't generalize
