Now stop whining about it being an exploit.

omg, i can't believe he said that:

"basicaly, poison is considered harrassment right now, not an exploit. you can /report someone that uses it"

BS!

lol, that's like reporting a CH for using pets, a BH for using a weapon, a Doc for healing someone...

... and to continue that line, a CSR sending tells or emails or answering tickets must be harrassment as well since i still got no repsonse on my lost factory...

did i say BS already?

the verdict is: that guy is an idiot

Hotron, is TC in Beta5 already? the live server are still in 4 ,)

Ok, that picture is from a post which basically points out that the CSR they got that night was a complete and utter smack-tard.

I wouldn't take *ANYTHING* that csr said for granted.

While I don't think non-los poisioning is an exploit (or harassment for that matter) I wouldn't base my assumption on the word of that CSR.

I think the CSR was thinking about the TEF bug, Now, that could be called harassment. But this guy was just a moron who wasn't recognizing what was going on.

BTW, the CSR was giving the Rifleman Correspondant a bad time for shooting out of his imp-faction base and running back inside to avoid fire.

The CSR was clueless, as the next 11 pages of posts demonstrate.

CSR is a moron. This always happened in EQ, a guild of 80 would raid something and start an event, then a competing guild would come in and take spawns. CSR comes with no clue whats going on and **edit**s it up. Most CSR's dont play the games they police or have minimal knowledge. Sad huh

Actually what CSR says makes perfect sence.

It's NOT an exploit (does not use bug to gain advantage)
It can be used as harrasment (with no-TEF bug) and should be reported as such.

there is a difference between "can be used as" and "is".

You guys are missing the point of that conversation. The point is not the CM using poison, point was the CM was able to do it through walls. The whole argument was about the people inside the house using the house itself to set up ambushes on the people outside. The person on the inside was complaining that it was the same as the CM being able to poison them through the walls.

I tend to agree that CM should have LOS blocked. I also agree with the CSR that these people should not be able to run in a house and execute zergs against the people outside, especially if they are doing this from a faction base. Of course if the base itself was attackable and destroyable, then this would not be an issue. Since buildings are magically indestructable and perfect safe havens then I would have to agree with the CSR are on this one.

so you're telling me that something they coded for and we use is considered harrassment and I should be reported for it? please please please tell me you're joking. if its important enough to SOE to consider it harrassment then FIX IT FOR CHRISTS SAKES. dont complain to me about using an in game feature. if you prics want it fixed DO IT. dont sit there and call me a harasser for using an in game feature.

The only way Poisons were a form of harrassment was if you used the no-TEF bug trick after someone killed you, but after today thats a no issue. Use of poisons through walls and poisons in general dont constitute harrassment because the opposing person can fight back, get help, burstrun, whatever. I still see the CSR as misinformed. Poisons through walls has not been identified by any official person at SOE as a sploit, they continue to leave it alone and I play based on that. Unless you can show me where a Dev said "CM poisons being used through walls is an exploit and is being fixed", I personally could care less what others think of it. Its no worse then knockdown spamming or dizzying.
