I get this being moved to rants & flames but the community needs some way of dealing with people like this beyond /ignore.

1. It's inappropriate to spread the word on the forums that this is a person to avoid
2. It's inappropriate to train them in game
3. It's not something the devs will act on

How can I cause a negative consequence to behavior like this? Without a consequence, we're not as a community discouraging this kind of behavior in any meaningful way. /ignore simply doesn't punish.

You obviously do not know the game. /ignore will punish him. Once he gets higher level and is looking for groups, it will get pretty hard for him unless he wants to solo all day long.

True.

Then I have to ask the GM's for a name change, and reapply to IB for epic pet.

Then, I win!

Problem with that is, those kinda players don't usually see beyond their own bullshit. Not when they're lowbies, not when they're 50.

Maybe it'd be a good idea for the community to compile a list of these douchebags for everyone to streer clear of. Nothing like a server-wide "ignore" to make them see the error of their ways.

yah sure, then we can all get blackbooked for calling someone an asshole. good idea. which one of you gestapos want to set up the guide rules for that one?

if he's so new and such a newbie, train him anyways. he won't know how or be able to prove it happened.

Not really my style but this is exactly the sort of situation that makes me want to.
