Killing guards is banable, sees to be the noted feeling i got from this recent encounter with a gm. After killing guards for say about an hour inside tir city, and generally haveing a good time just seeing how fast i could kill them i went to socialize a little before the servers went down. After i zoned into the place i was meet abruptly a few seconds later by a gm who said rename your pet now.
My pet was name GM Lostclevage, green letters but had white output after it somethign no gm would ever have happen as well as it was a lvl 150 crat pet, thet pet was doing no talking other than attack output. No /pet chat commands were issued. I continued to ask why this why a bad thing, at first the gm told me it was because it confused people. i stated that the pet was not chatting and also put out white output after the name as well as said Lostclevages's pet - GM Lostclevage: , which was put there to prevent players from poseing there pets as gms.
After pointing this out she had no reponse to it nothing more than you need to not name you pet this , i continued on trying to find out how i was doing something wrong considering i wasn;t saying antying though pet chat he was just killing. finally i got this out of her in her own words " It looks bad to see a pet name GM Lostclevage killing guards" . Now i know my names not considered offensive cause i told her right then and there she should change my name if thats it, she didn't, and even cosmiks seen my name at partys i have danced infront of him and with him and nothing about it.
I then found out why i was petitioned was cause i was killing guards, which seems to be the only reason they cared is they found a loop hole to say that killing guards is bad. the gm never once siad i was impersinating a guard, then after that i was told this was my warning if it happend again i was banned. i assured her that i had delted my pet name macros for that. after much thought still being irritated by this i realized that the hole reason this came up was that i was killing guards.
This based on that several gms and arks over the week to 2 time that i have had my pet named this have said nothing. They have seen my pet , in matter of fact my pet commented nice green name there.
Personally i see this as going to far. why would you warn someone against there account that wasn;t causeing problems, wasn;t impersonating a gm, and did what the gm asked. if anythign the gm lied to me, she was not stright foward to me about why this was happening, she would not tell me why she tryed to go around the facts, and last but not least i was targeted by some one that has lost the total facts that it was a game and that killing guards is not the same as exploiting or harrsing another player, or hacking .
I'm asking for 2 things in this post, #1 that warning be removed , #2 i am asking for an apology from funcom for being harassed in this way, when by no mean was i being disrespectful, uncooperative , or impersinating a gm ( Impersinating a gm was never once remarked on by a gm it was just siad it was confuseing to players, and later the reason was redefined ).
