What possesses someone to.......

The point to this thread is why would someone do it, Not how to prevent it

Signal7's post was really all there is to it.

So that means we aren't allowed to give tips/hints on how to handle such a situation? o_O

Yeah seriously...

If you would sit and res 10-20 times only to get murdered again over the course of 3+ hours instead of just ressing at the healer, waiting 10 minutes for sickness to go away and paying a small sum to repair your gear...sounds like you have just as much spare time as the guy killing you.

Not like we can tell you why he would do that, we don't know him. I'm sure hes a teenager with no friends that doesn't have much to do besides sit in front of the computer. Possibly he was just watching TV the whole time and just noticed whenever you ressed and killed you. He could have been doing homework, reading a book, etc, though the latter things are less likely.

Either way, you're a serious glutton for punishment. If I get camped more than twice I res at the healer.

I doubt he did not know how to res at a spirit healer that is all

That guy is a multibox hater. I get those every so often but more times than not I end up killing them and camping them back. What you should do is just rez at grave, hearth and then 10 minutes later go back and camp his ass. Or get some others to help you and even camp the grave and make him log off.

I do apologize for that, however, as an excuse I will use the excuse that as a hobbyist coder I tend to look to finding a resolution to problems presented to me.
Empathy may have been expected response, but with out expressly requesting it you can not fault us.

If he instantly kills you over and over when you rez over the course of 8 hours and only moves to kill you, that sounds like someone needs to open a botting report.

No, if it was a botter the bot would have gone back to reading its path / profile killing mobs on its course. Also its very unlikely that a 70 would be botting in common questing area out of fear of discovery. Sounds more like a douche bag than a botter.

If nothing else, you can take solace from the knowledge that you went out, did the washing, and watched tv, while he.....camped you.The odd time i get camped that I don't wanna go to the spirit healer, I'll wait at my corpse as a ghost for hours if need be, reading a book or something, jumping occasionally to prevent afk.

Or I ask for 70's to help me, wait until the camper is distracted fighting them, and join in. That works fairly well too.

Reguardless of why they are doing it REPORT them. That is harrassment and should be stopped with extreeme predjudice.
