EQ had some excellent tools to police d-bags. Mostly it boiled down to needing a group to level, so if you made a reputation for yourself as a jerk, you couldn't level anymore.

Ah the good ole days...
darkfall had a way to police carbears, its called free loot, easy kill..

running up to ninja the quest objective you're killing an NPC for... Just
instant stealth to throw aggro on the person that thinks they're going to ninja.

Then while they fight, just take your quest item and go.

It's funny, I've actually had people rage at me in general over that. They
come in expecting to ninja a quest item while I'm fighting, I stealth, to give
them the fight. Then they get mad when I take the quest item?

Maybe as some have stated, they're role playing dark side, and don't like
being played for a dark side fool.
This is what I was laughing at....

When I come across people like that, I just drop them into /ignore and continue. I use my ignore list as a blacklist, and I do reference it when grouping in pugs. It's usually clear when someone is being greedy/self-centered and I have no desire to even tolerate them. If I'm reasonably positive a player is a douche, they get no second chance in my books.

Just 10 minutes ago I saw someone about to die because they were killing mobs to get a chest, and I healed him up and let him get the chest. I could have easily just taken it, but sometimes people like to actually be respectful and not 13 years old. I know it's hard.
If he wasn't good enough to kill the mobs without dieing, you could argue that he didn't deserve the chest. Don't get rewarded for nothing in real life either.

Best idea ever go to koriban follow people around and kill all the world mobs they are trying to level up on ROFL.
I personally dont mind people doing this kind of thing i actually lol at them and their attitude.
Come to think of it, I feel kinda sad for the families of kids like you i wouldnt be proud if i had a child like you.
It is sad how kids are acting noawdays.

I cant even imagine why people seem to have so much fun making others life hard.

I feel sorry for you bro really :/ you are such a sad little individual.

Reading issues? I only ask 'cause he clearly said "When I get home from work", then you proceeded to call him "kid" repeatedly. Which I would normally attribute to someone assuming immaturity of the other person, but thats clearly not the case here since he's stated that he works, and as such isn't "some 14 year old on their mums computer" as people here like to throw arounda lot.

Sadly these poor saps cannot even see it in themselves. They keep up this internet tough guy stance but cannot seem to grasp their own issues.

If anyone gets enjoyment out of making other people's lives more miserable, or getting people angry who they do not even know, it shows some serious psychological shortcomings and synaptic misfiring going on in those little noggins.
