46833, Could we have people stop abusing notell?
Posted by Annoyed cfer. on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
The same people who absued ignore are now abusing notell. This has been the seventh time this has happened to me with my last three character.





passing of other travelers, and the trail into the hills is to the
south.


Cfer has arrived.

You tell Trelvant 'Well I will be waiting to slit your throat.'

The Entrance to a Forest Valley
The trail ends here at the mouth of a forested valley. Arrayed before
you are a multitude of trees, including maples, elms, and tall oaks to
name a few. Off in the distance, you think you see what might even be
a stand of the mighty Ironwood trees. The forest seems very peaceful,
and you can hear the sounds of the animals at play deeper within
the trees. A path to the west into the forest has been made from the
passing of other travelers, and the trail into the hills is to the
south.

A Trail Leading From the Vale
You are walking along a small trail leading from the valley. The air
here is fresh and clean. The path is somewhat narrow, and only three
humans could walk abreast down it. It seems to have seen regular, if
light, usage by people on foot as well as livestock. The trail
continues north and south.

Cfer tells you 'go trip something thief, and leave the songs to me'

wilderness 100%/100% 100%/100% 97%/100% 3918tnl (20.04%) (8 PM) reply Go sing to yourself..you are obviously blind to the many skills of a thief.
He is not receiving tells.

The RP has nothing to do with the log neither was abrasive..even if the cfer acted like someone is insane.
46856, I lolled at this

Seems the usual level 11-25 sitters are doing their thing still. No big deal. Just ignore them and move on, or kill them and full loot/sac.
46834, I've never experienced this. n/t

46835, Seems to be something recent.
Posted by Annoyed Cfer. on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
You may not have seen it but that is proof that someone is abusing it...I should of kept the other logs. All I want is a timer like ignore has so people can't basicly tell me to #### off then completely ignore me. And it wasn't what he said that was the #### off the using notell just like ignore is the #### off part. He is abusing a game mechanic to get around another one implamented to stop exactly this.
46838, I think...
Posted by Homard on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
First of all, I think that both "notell" and "ignore" are silly commands.

Secondly, I think that if you've seen this seven times over three characters, that it might have something to do with the way you approach these interactions.

That's not to say that there are not a-holes who will abuse these commands, but seven times seems a bit lopsided to put all the blame on them.
46859, Well three characters is over 350 hours plus.
Posted by Tesline on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
I highly doubt it was me because I am not mean with any of my characters especially my last Whiysdan follower who was nice to everyone. Who actually got 3 of the notells. while I got two more from funnyone's imperial from the character before. And this recent one. Can't remember the last one. The reason it seems lopsided is because your missing about 90% of the story. Hard to draw conclusions from that little information.
46863, Funnyone is an outlier.
Posted by Homard on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
He's probably personally responsible for most of these instances.

That said, I don't think he's ever pulled this with me, so there are ways of interacting with him that will not lead to tell;ignore or tell;notell from him.

But I don't think that one can draw broad conclusions about the playerbase based on the actions of a few disturbed individuals.
46873, Not the entire playerbase...I am just saying someone is abusing it. nt

46865, Do this. Every 5 minutes send them a tell aying "Last Word!" Then ignore them.
Posted by Alston on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
The people who use this win their arguments that way.
46864, I experience it with all of Funnyones characters. His tells inside.
Posted by Alston on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
He barely makes use of the shift key and he always bitches about the the tactic that was used to kill him sayig that's all the killer knows. Even if that killer kills him with a different tactic each fight.

cfer says 'you are a master of nothing. Where I come from, you fight with a simple trip. ' <--- That's Funnyone 99% whenever you see it.
You tell Trelvant 'Well I will be waiting to slit your throat.'

cfer sniggers maliciously. Uh oh. <----- And this is him 75% or more, combined with the dismiss emote = 99%.

This guy is using the shift key though. Might not be the Funnyone.
