VanasKOS[/url] is your friend.

Revenge is sweet.

That is all.

Agreed. I have VanasKos and the list is shared between all my toons for immediate gankage when I see them.

I wonder if there comes a point when repeated ganking officially becomes reportable physical harassment, even on a PvP server.

If the same level 70's are repeatedly tracking you down and ganking your lowbie multibox team, no matter where you go, then they're clearly out to spoil your game. Would Blizzard act on this once it has gone on long enough?

Blizz won't act. I also had a problem with 70s mind-controlling everyone off the boat for over an hour. Blizz sent me a canned email that basically says, "welcome to PVP, there are ways around it. Good luck!"

I saved this email, because I also have a Priest... :thumbsup:

Well, I wouldn't expect them to act after an hour of grief, but what about if you're being deliberately targetted for weeks?

Its part of life on a PvP server. GMs will not act at all.

Oh god...

This is exactly why I could never level up on a PvP server. Had some RL aquaintances raiding on Spinebreaker who kept bugging me to join but even with a guild full of bodyguards it was extremely frustrating to me haha.

I guess it directly correlates to why I multi-box. I have a set amount of time to play WoW each session due to my lifestyle, family, etc etc.... I refuse to have that time governed by PuG asswads, or gankers.

I like to get shit done. Period. =)

Personally,

I love being ganked. I love being surprised. It allows me to gain experience on how to handle things, and it distracts me from the boring grind. I agree after a few times it can get annoying, ofcourse, but it shouldn't be too hard to avoid the ganker for a while if it goes out of hand. But PvP server all the way for me really. Even if it's for the odd chance of totally pwning the ganker. But even when I fail at that, it's distraction and experience.

But to each their own really. :)

Every report for Gankers will result in "There is a PVP solution to your issue. YOU'RE FUCKED LOL"

The best onse are where the gankers get the favor returned and get
camped by boxers.. I remmember someone from Mag was getting camped and
another boxer came in and wiped them.. ahh.. love it! Having 5
boxers with 25 toons running at you must be a nice sight.. before you
get zapped!! LOL (I gotta check what's the latency on Mag :) join my MB
pals)

In 2 sessions of 3 hours each the pally ganked me 3 times in Tanaris, 3 times in searing gorge. the rogue 3 times in tanaris. Definately the same pally and rogue. It also seemed that the word was put out that I was a good target for ganking as 6 mid 50 ally came to try and get me in a 15 minute period. Yes, 15 minutes. A warrior/rogue combo, a lone lock, a pally, a priest, a mage. They of course were toast even when the lock tried to gank me while I had 3 mobs on me. I'm not uber, I'm a multiboxer.

See, you should have rolled on Magtheridon. ;) There's enough of us with 70s there that we're happy to come help lowbies being camped by bored 70 assholes. I enjoy taking a break to do that every now and then. Of course, it's a very rare 70 that actually stays around trying to gank once our 70s throw a beating on 'em.

My 3 level 60s were questing in Hellfire last night being led by my 70 prot pally.

A 70 mage was flying by and turned around after seeing my 3 follows.

He landed 30 yards from me, and then I had this BIG SMILE.

3 Grounding totems, and nuke combo's later, were were around him unhurt, and he was 30%, lol.

He managed to Frost Nova and blink, despite cast sequences of War Stomp surrounding him. :p

We caught up with him Judged Pursuit of Justice, and Chain Frost shocks managed to get him to 1%, where he proceeded to Ice Block at 1%, lmao.

What's he gonna do, surrounded by Grounding Totem, Healing Totems, Searing Totem? Die ofcourse.
His level 70 buddy did not bother to dismount from flying as I got him targeted and got a volley of chain lighting off. :)

Just take your ganking with a smile on your face, one day you will be 70. That's what I did, people use to follow me around and gank me for hours. but now they tend to stear far and wide. I had 15 people come at me a few days ago at the sunwell and I wrecked them bad.
