Having a situation in one of my games right now. Another player who I was in a coalition with became abusive during the game. So simple enough. I drop the coalition and distance myself from it. Of course we are in countries connected so we ended up in a war that I won. Unfortunately that is when the real problem happens. This player begins sending me messages. LOTS OF THEM. Basically harassment. Immature jokes. Called me a few nasty names. I do what I think is right and report him. The report wasn't answered for almost 2 days. While that is not the overall issue I do think that is a bit long. Still when it is answered the moderator goes in and just simply deletes the messages? Of course afterwards nothing stopped the player from sending even more. Nothing more annoying after 2 hours to log in and see you have 32 events that happened. Only to realize that only 2 of them were relevant to the battle and the other 30 are messages from the troll. I report him again. Another day goes by with no answer from chat, and continuous harassment from the troll. I finally tell the troll that he is a disrespectful little child and needed to grow up. Please leave me alone! So this morning. I got a message in my inbox. I got the warning????? Seriously?
So with all that said and what has happened happened. I'm not even that mad. Okay. I did violate the TOS for telling the little troll what I though of him, but I can't help but think. Couldn't all this be avoided with a simple chat block? I can't think of a game I ever played that didn't have an option to block chat from another user. It should be in the game because this method of chat moderation seems pretty ineffective against the true trolls. I'm simply not interested in playing a game that allows this type of harassment with slow ineffective responses. So I ask whoever is in charge. Please consider a block or something that is more effective than the system you have now. Good day to you all and thanks for hearing me out!
