    Ignore them, give them zero attention. Switch to guild chat only if that is what it takes. Learn to ignore the world chat banners. I seriously don't know what else you can do without leaving.


    Additional Note: Section 1.8 Parts o, p, and q in the Terms of Service seem to be what cover this sort of thing. Perhaps mention that in your tickets.

    We never did give them any attention. At all. Remember their goal was not to troll, but to drive (everyone else) off the server, by any means necessary. Which after over 4 months of this, they did successfully.

    When you and your children's safety are constantly compromised, for all to see, what would you have done? Those with families were the first ones to leave that server. I stayed longer only because I dumped SO much money and time into my character, to comfort and console all those harassed, and because I'm single (with little at risk). I left when there was very few remaining, and tried to encourage a mass exodus onto another server, but sadly many of those quit Tynon altogether.

Of course any sane person would use the block feature but as i said, it only hides the threats to anyone that does use the block feature, it does not stop it happening to someone else.

    Kids play this game for crying out loud.
    ... and its most likely kids that made those threats!

    i gotta protect morgan and have to say that you are the one who is arguing and being ridiculous. for petes sake just ignore the kid! morgan is only trying to help you and giving you advice but your ignorance and almost child like naivety makes me wanna think that you are exaggerating this on purpose and with your way to argue about this and ignoring the facts makes me wanna think that you are the one who is trolling the forum and trying to see who can launch the biggest argument and fight

    and you are a really special number! first you lie and say you feel like your personal safety is threatened (as in someone will come to your house and beat you up) and then you say you dont give them any attention and their true goal is to get everyone off the server!
    let me tell you something. as far as for your own and everyone elses safety, you have nothing to fear about the 11-15yr old who was making the "threats" unless you dared him and gave him your address. in this game they dont even provide safety checks for email and you can give them anything you like as long as its in the xx@yy.zz format and you remember it.

    mark my words:

    just ignore the kid and add him to your blocklist!

    and who is next? probably myself for calling you out on your BS... someone close this farce already, havent we had enough of this already?

    I don't think you're understanding the picture kaisim.

    As I mentioned in the email to Dave, here is what they do:
    First off remember that they do this for sport. Whoever persecutes the most becomes the most popular in their clique (much like the movie Mean Girls, or like Lord of the Flies, or a Stanford Prison experiment). They'd invite a person into their special uber guild, make them feel welcome, invite them into their TeamSpeak (raid call), invite them to be facebook buddies ... and then suddenly backstab them, twist the knife, and do everything they can to ruin (the target)'s life and run them off the server.

    Curiously enough, this persecution ring consists of all grown adults. btw Morgan, one of your forum friends happens to be numbered among these victims. Sadly that person no longer plays Tynon.

    Do not take this the wrong way Kasim but you saying the culprit(s) are most likely kids isn't enough of an argument for a death threat to be ignored.
    My ignorance? Unless you work for a law enforcement agency or an intelligence service that is here to monitor the exact, alleged issue that has arisen then you can keep your assumptions to yourself and let the relevant, adult authorities to investigate.

    My original comment was not designed to scorn Morgan, only to point out the matter needs to addressed properly as death and physical violence threats have occurred. If it was just vulgar or racist remarks then I would 100% agree with the use block function and move on.

    I play alot of Call of Duty and there is alot of very mean things said there, but point is unless they know where you live you have no worries. I am also one who likes to screw with people because its fun. These people are just screwing around with you and they know it gets to you so its funny to them. So just don't let it get to you and ignore them by possibly using the block button.

    One lesson to be learned from all this drama is this: You do not know who is behind that screen so keep your personal information personal! If you don't share your information with anyone then they can't hunt you.

    I agree with this. Unfortunately many of us on that server ended up falling into their trap and becoming friends with (these people). As a result we were stalked and bullied (for sport) until the targets quit the server or Tynon.

    Instead of quitting Tynon, I chose to create a separate Tynon account for personal safety reasons.

    You described exactly what a troller does, they do it because they love the attention and seeing y'all wound up like this is giving them kicks. Reading between the lines this is classic case of gamers in the same team falling out, one being kicked and the subsequent shouting match goes on for months.

    If you say you are all adults then be the adult block and walk away from the battle. As for someone who's on my friend list, if they choose to leave Tynon they do so for their own reasons which is really none of my business.

    Unless they have access to your personal information they your personal safety is fine. Never give out personal information on the internet and keep your FB profile minimal using the security tools FB gives us.

    If they already have your personal information creating another account won't make the slightest difference. Your story with all due respect changes every time which leads me to believe this tit for tat. If you want it to end, just stop having anything to do with the other side and use that block button.

    Morgan, I do not appreciate being trolled on the Tynon forums, least of all by you who should know better. Remember as I said almost a dozen times, and like the email we sent to davemata: we used the block feature. It was the first solution we did. After finding such solution to be counterproductive, we then took it to the next phase: ignored it and screenshot / reporting, again nothing. (remember, you can't screenshot the items that you block)

    It would be nice to know how to take these things through the proper Tynon channels. However seeing the nature of Morgan and davemata's responses (on both this issue and the racism issue), it becomes apparent that the proper channels are broken.
