Boat Griefing

3 times I have seen someone on the Mid dock sending repeated Boats all to different destinations in order to grief his realm mates. There is literally a pile of 10 boats in the water. And its not possible to report them because it causes a backlog of players on the dock and you don't know which player is doing it.

Yupp.. Very annoying!
Should be a timer on boat as live and a ticket anti spam for a player. 30 sec per ticket per player or so.

I'm not sure why they ever got rid of the queueing system, the way it is now, even without someone intentionally griefing, groups get split up all the damn time.

i have camped docks for some time and have not seen it at all. usually folks get their boat and are gone before you can attack them.

if they slowed it down it would mean soloers get ganked a lot more by stealthers.

just pick the right boat lol?
i never had any issue with that, even if there were 5 boats at once

I saw this again last night but it was a stream of empty Alb boats pouring into Bled. Please make this a ban-able offense

Just put buying a boat ticket on a 30 s timer and using a boat ticket on a 15 s timer? Once you buy the ticket you can’t buy another one for 30s. Or less. Once you give a ticket to the boat person then you can’t give another for 10 or 15 s. ??????

I haven’t been effected by this but I have seen the mid armada a few times.

Never mind. A delay on buying would be dumb. To many times people change their minds on where to go and it would suck to have to wait every wrong decision. But I’ll say turn in a ticket every 10-15s is reasonable.

I’ve seen people doing and when I asked them why - they say it’s cause they are bored. So the mechanism to rate limit spammers should be there just for the ignorant as well.

Lol. Why this bothers any of y'all enough to want to ban someone, is hilarious.

why is it hilarious? if its intentionally griefing it's negatively affecting the gameplay of the rest. We have had entire battlegroups hung up (when time is critical) cause of boat spammers. So much so that we dont choose the most popular docks anymore.
