Ok. I ported to my friend in cl and this dude started to call me names. So i challenged him to pvp and he said okay. So we started and i got all my friends to watch. When the battle started, he used no shields, no blades, and no traps. He only used rank 1, 2, 3, or 4 spells. (Scarab, Scorpion, etc.) I was useing my best spells (luckey for me i had rank 5, 6, and 7 treasure cards) and before i knew it, he only had 350 health while i was at 960. (I had to use my trained Satyr card once i was at 10 health.) So i used tough on sunbird and used sunbird. The grandmaster got creamed. After the match however, everyone had a party at the arena we were at. he stayed and threw some insults. I reported him, of course, but he stil stayed. This is a very common problem in pvp. Insults to the people who win. It needs to be stopped. I was level 26 at the time, and he was level 58, (BALANCE) and now he is level 60. We rematch every now and then, occasionaly he wins, but the insulting needs to stop.
PvP/PK players are generally the rudest people on a (MM)ORPG. This has been my experience going back to the text muds of 1992 and covering at least 20 different games.
If KingsIsle banned PvP chat abusers, they'd lose at least half of their PvP players, and since those are paying subscribers, it isn't going to happen.
Perhaps they could use a timed-mute system for offenses, with increasing penalties (i.e. 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, 30 days, permanent).
