Can i get reported for reporting too much?

[Frosty]

Recently I reported someone who was harassing 2 of my 4 characters. I reported him on those 2 accounts that were harassed, with the same report text. The GM then told me I shouldn't report him twice, because it's taking up unnecessary resources and it's regarded as one and the same incident ... that's quite contradictory to what I heard from other GMs (and I told him that), but the GM was sticking to his story.

He probably got owned by a multi-boxer earlier in the day. :P

just keep in mind GMs are humans and can make errors, I've never heard of it in WoW but in age of conan a number of times the GMs accidently temp-banned the person MAKING the report instead of the other person, lol

I really wish sometimes Blizzard would release 18+ only PVP servers where there were no chat or naming rules, I'd pay extra for it. Sadly Warhammer is also a rated-T game.

Really, it is unnecessary to report them twice. Likely, 2 different GM's are going to get the 2 separate tickets and one of them will investigate and take the appropriate action regarding whatever was reported and the other one will spend their time investigating only to be like "Oh, GM Steve already banhammered this guy. I guesss I just wasted that 5 minutes of my time." That really just makes other tickets wait longer because that GM had to screw around looking into your extra report. You're totally within your rights (and I highly doubt that you would ever get in trouble) to report the guy multiple times, but it's kind of a waste of time for all involved - and you're making other people with other issues wait longer.

For what I view as "minor infractions" I just right click the name and select "report spam" because I don't have the time to wait for a full fledged ticket, and I don't want to get interrupted by a GM whisper in the middle of battle. If they are not whispering my toons, I usually do the report spam from all 5 toons.

But this is the internet, everyone has an IQ of 140+!

That would be entertaining, though I wonder how'd they do the testing.

Would high-IQ realms do better or worse at PvE progression? Being good at IQ tests doesn't neccesarily mean you can not stand in the fire.

I'd settle for servers with a captcha that require users to write a coherent sentence.

Maybe a spelling test:
(audio) "spell you"
