Attacking republic in Open World is griefing?

by this logic attacking a player without asking him before if he is on questing would be griefing.

and in this case a pvp server would be the same as a pve server as it wuold be equivalent to manually activating your pvp flag.

to consider what the op was talking about griefing is plain STUPID!

Hmm this the the WoW mentality that demoted PvP to a gear grind in the MMO genre.

What's the purpose of pvp if you're grieving the moment you engage in meaningful pvp?

Gear grind gear grind gear grind.

My guess is that the people who received a warning engaged in cross faction trash talk that crossed the line.

I didn't read all 30 pages, but in the first 5 no one posted the verbage of the warning so we really have nothing to go on here.

afaik, on a PVP server, if you are in any area that flags you for PVP this means you are a target and can be attacked.

What's next... Killing people in the center of ilum is greifing because they cannot get their armements!?

The whole point of having Open World bosses is so factions have to battle for them for peets sake.

^^

I think we would all like to see a screenuie of the warnign message itself.

I want to report every Empire player on Hex droid then

I never ever have trown a handgranate on Sith when they kill mobs i promise

Dear OP,

You've done nothing wrong. That is a good way to start a fun open PvP encounter. If your opponents (or anyone in this thread) would like to argue otherwise, they need to go to a PvE server. On a PvP server, denying your enemies access to a boss via PvP is one of the most satisfying things to do in an open PvP environment. That's why people roll on them, to do things like that. If you rolled on a PvP server and complain about a group repeatedly attacking you while you're trying to kill a boss, then you've made a huge mistake.

Good and I expect it to work both ways.

Tagging a boss with no intention of actually killing it solely for the purpose of denying other players is exploiting game mechanics.

"Harassment consists of misuse and/or abuse of game mechanics and verbal harassment with the intention of distressing and offending other players."

Tags on mobs in this game frequently don't drop right away, even after the person/group with the tag die.

A warning from who? I'm dead certain this is not a BioWare employee. Have you got proof? A screenshot?

You should be careful if I were you. If you are sprouting rubbish which is not true, you could be looking at action taken against you by the devs/mods.

I for one call BS on this post. If you are on a PvP server and attack another group, it is not griefing. You are within your rights to PvP the other faction at any time.

That's the long and short of it.
