Yes, this is a clear case of abuse. IT occurs from time to time and abuse or a yellow has to step in. After the third request, speak to any yellow on the board. Since ongoing abuse should be handled immediately. Now that it is over, write to abuse and provide info about the incident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jlall Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 My new method is to keep saying "star tms ok?" to them multiple times, give them a taste of their own medicine. Eventually they get frustrated and stop doing it to you :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1eyedjack Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 I find it quite difficult to imagine any player who believes that after seven rejections an eighth request has any hope of acceptance. I conclude that the player is either deliberately hounding the player against whom he has some personal animosity (abuse) or is so inexperienced with the interface that he does not understand that the previous requests have been rejected. If the latter is a possible construction of the facts, I would be disinclined to categorise it as "abuse" in the normal sense, although it may be the most efficient way of dealing with it.

You rejected 8 times but then you were upset because he wouldn't let you play? Did I read that right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might hope I missclick on accept, then feel forced to play. It happened to me once, I was about to play a TM, then another invitation for something I didn't talk about pop up, and I accepted.... that was a big mess.

Rain Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 Agree, abuse and irritating. It feels like if you have someone on "enemy" list, they should be completely ignored -- no offline messages, no invites should be seen.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
