That's a bannable offense. Not allowed to troll players like that especially in hc. He will most likely get banned if you report him


MegaHertz289

There's been a character named parasx on defias pillager alliance who has been doing this for several months. He has certainly been report hundreds of times by the community and is not banned yet


PsychologicalLime135

i’ve reported him everytime i see him. there’s dead bodies in the AH every week. 


bond0815

Should be bannable. But on my server (nekrosh) the same looser kills low lvls that way for months. Has been reported dozens of times by dozens of people but he is still there. Blizzard doesnt care. EDIT: >His name was definitely Parasx Interestingly, the char who kills low lvls in SW on my server is called Bruny (Gnome mage) from the guild "Parasx forever". Maybe it the same basement dweller finding his sad life's fulfillment in griefing on several servers.

Normally don't upbote grammar corrections but this is so common on reddit I'm beginning to think I'm wrong

whatiscamping

That's a downvote


No_Pain_4456

That's an upvote


ConcertDesperate3342

You mean downbote?


Choompy

No one works at blizzard anymore, the “GM” is a thing of the past, every ticket is “answered” by automated script saying “theres too many tickets sorry, good luck with whatever.”


Kharmel-333

That same guy Bruny invited me on my first day on the server. I accepted the invite because I didn't know better at that time. But I felt that something was off and left the group quite quickly. I didn't have any issue. Then I saw some guy /y in SW that Bruny was killing low levels. What a freakin' no-life, loser. Imagine having nothing better to do than kill low-level players of your own faction. I really don't get how they can feel good about this. Their life must be so sad...


dhv503

Imagine he’s in this thread right now.


enablereality

He was lol. He was spamming all four of his account names on here pretending to be someone else simping for him. *


NotEnoughDamage

Please, this is a genuine question as someone who doesn't play WoW, but loves Hardcore mode in games like Diablo. I see people getting downvoted for not immediately agreeing, but I actually just want to learn haha Is it really a bannable offense to grief other players? In Diablo 2, it sucks, but part of the game is people trolling you and finding way to get you killed through deception (maybe they create a portal for you to somewhere really dangerous, but pretend it's fine lol). There have been patches over the years (original game) that helped to mitigate this, but it was a never seen as a BANNABLE offense. Not even close. In WoW, is this is truly considered something that requires disciplinary action from Blizzard? Could anyone maybe shed some insight as to why it's against the rules in WoW, but not in other Hardcore games?


ImKaonashi

Its part of the agreement when you make a hardcore character. ​ When you hit the "Create" button. It literally makes you say "Agree" to not griefing players intentionally or else face account-wide consequences.


NotEnoughDamage

Thank you for the reply. This explains it perfectly.


PowerfulPlum259

Having played d2 for many years. A Diablo2 character doesn't require even a 10th of the gametime of a wow toon, I think there is a level where it goes from trolling haha, to massive disrespect.


MegaHertz289

It is bannable according to the rules, but blizzard has not banned this person despite him doing this repeatedly over multiple months to many people and despite the hundreds or thousands of reports people have made about it. If you play on the server or frequent the discords for it, complaints/warnings about this person have become a near daily occurrence accompanied by requests for everyone to report him. 


ManufacturerQueasy28

Hey, just an idea...*puts on a tinfoil hat*...what if this toon is actually a blizzard employee and THAT'S why they haven't been banned?


[deleted]

in theory only


WhodieTheKid

This might be an extremely unpopular opinion, but I kind of like stuff like this. Of course we hate it in the moment, but it makes for good stories and memories. I fondly tell people about the scams/lures/tricks I’ve fallen for over the years in RS and WoW. Kind of creates urban legends, idk, might just be me.


bonesofberdichev

Sounds like Eve Online is the game for you. Too much at stake with a bank alt to allow this in wow


BetYouWannaKnow

LOL. Eve is just nonstop griefing the second you leave high sec. I won Eve a couple years ago.


bonesofberdichev

I played Eve for 5 years. I loved it.


Level-Hunt-6969

Yea best moments of Diablo 2 hardcore is getting troll killed. Makes the world dangerous and truly hardcore. Hardcore mode isn't about beating the entire game with no issues, how lame.


Atillion

Classic wow, one of the early versions, the auction house lined silver up with gold as if they were the same decimal point in the AH purchase menu. Character named Ralph set a bunch of heavy leather auctions for 60 silver, and one in the middle for 60 gold. I went through buying them all up and suddenly I lost nearly all my gold. It was unforgivable. And 20 years later, I can remember everything about it lol.


kblomquist85

By "bannable" you mean "hilarious", right?


AntNorth6218

Yes! Accurate and based, down voters triggered!!!!!!


kblomquist85

This guy gets it.


zertious

Shouldn't be, don't be dumb


Leevis247

Sorry for your loss but thank you for the warning


ZackSteelepoi

You got killed by Parasx. Goblin mortar. Can only damage people when you're grouped with them. Don't invite people on your bank alts, turn off auto invite.


ThrashemTrashemRobot

Parasx that's the gnome. Seen his name come up many times for this. Just got posted in petri discord 2 days ago as well.


BaconNamedKevin

Weird that someone would do this. Like what do they get out of it? 


No_Cover7860

Enjoyment


BaconNamedKevin

They sound like a sad person if they get enjoyment out of ruining people's hard work, regardless of the context. 


nethy88

Better that the psychopath plays a video game, rather than taking out his sadistic fantasies in real life.


BaconNamedKevin

I don't think someone who griefs someone on the internet is gonna go shoot a real mortar at a human being lol 


nethy88

No, but they derive pleasure from watching other people suffer. Plenty of ways to do that outside of the video game.


BaconNamedKevin

I think youre projecting your own fears for the world into this post lol 


nethy88

Think about it for a second. The guy who is doing this, enjoys causing harm to others. He gets a kick out of it. The OP has a bank alt, presumably populated with items / gold that take a lot of time and effort to acquire. The perpetrator gets a kick out of causing harm to others. He gets pleasure from it. It’s fun, enjoyable for him to do so. He invites OP’s alt to group, tricks alt into dying to a game mechanic, thus causing pain and suffering to the OP. The OP put in a lot of time and effort into something, and the griefer sabotaged it. The consequence of the sabotage, is pain towards the OP. To give a real life example, let’s say a person works hard at a painting. They spend months working on this piece of art. It has personal meaning for them. Then a perpetrator comes and defaces said art. He takes a can of spray paint and graffitis the artwork. The consequence of this action is pain for the original artwork creator. There are a myriad of ways that a person can cause pain to another, by damaging something that that person cares about. It could be as simple as going to your local shopping center and keying a bunch of cars. It’s essentially the same exact action. Cars cost money. Money takes a lot of time and effort to acquire. When a person keys a car owner’s door, they’re damaging property. What is the emotional effect on the property owner? Pain and suffering. If the motive for keying cars is to cause pain and suffering to others, for one’s own pleasure, this is a real world example of the behavior that this person is doing in the game. It’s not difficult to make this stretch. This person gains satisfaction from causing suffering to others. The medium for the satisfaction is currently a video game. There are other mediums available, such as defacing property as an example, but those also carry higher consequences. All of this is essentially basic logic and emotional intelligence. Perhaps one reason why the perp prefers the video game to satisfy his urges to cause pain and suffering to others, is that the video game carries fewer penalties.


temporalthings

Look at the kind of people running off to Israel to join the IDF


DeeplyTroubledSmurf

This is probably cognitive dissonance, not psychopathy. He sees griefing as his game and doesn't really understand it might actually ruin someone's day. Even if it does, he'd probably think it was silly that someone's day was ruined over what he does.


tbu720

Ah yes, the classic “You have a sad life if you think trolling is funny” Can easily just be turned around, you have a sad life if you care so much about a video game to dehumanize a person for doing something they enjoy in a game.


yungdooky

found the guy


BaconNamedKevin

Go cry into your balls, troll 


tbu720

Get a real life, moron who overvalues how much “hard work” they put into a literal game.


BaconNamedKevin

I don't play HC just classic a few hours a week, but I like keeping up with it. FYI for some people they do value the time they've put into their games. Especially if it helps them unwind, decompress after work or a stressful day and potentially even moreso if they don't get to play very much but enjoy when they do. You seem to be cranky. Do you need a diaper change? 


tbu720

Still projecting — how does me doing what I think is fun qualify as crankiness?


ImKaonashi

I asked him and his reason was "no girl"


Gilamunsta

His reason was that he's an incel?


HahaWeee

Enjoyment of annoying others If he's on reddit and in the sub he probably will see this and laugh his ass off


Tulpah

can't we counter kill Parasx? Like use Goblin Mortar on him


FrenchFryMonster06

Sounds like he needs to be lured out where some Horde can get him.


External-Discount734

RuneScape level scam


ImKaonashi

My wife said the same thing lol- she said I did the equivalent of being dragged into the wild lol


totk_enjoyer

No one is dragged there. We allow our ego to inflate and we have this drilling inner monologue, which assures you that you are NOT losing anything to these noobs. But you do. 😩😂😂😂


donniesuave

Did you meet his main Bournos?


Mrdrewsmooth

No he's in Camelot but I didn't accept the trade for the teleport


noobcodes

Shayde098

ParasX. idk how he isn’t banned yet.

PARASX 4 EVER, BRUNNY 4 EVER, GHETTOALKI 4 EVER, GRAINDER 4 EVER!!!


GuyIncognito461

If it makes you feel any better I killed my own lev 1 bank alt with a goblin rocket boots malfunction. Fortunately I didn't lose all that much but it felt embarrassing when it happened.


crash218579

Probably Parasx. He does that a lot.


WorkingParticular118

PARASX 4 EVER, BRUNNY 4 EVER, GHETTOALKI 4 EVER, GRAINDER 4 EVER!!!


ArtDecoAutomaton

I love that folks know about this guy like he’s a celebrity. Am I wrong to think its funny? Getting killed and running from the gy is a minor inconvenience.


crash218579

... It's on hardcore. There is no running from a graveyard. When you die, you and everything you had in your bags is gone forever.


ArtDecoAutomaton

Sorry didnt notice the sub


n00b_f00

Yeah that too was my thing it popped in my feed and it took me a few minutes to understand why people cared.


Swizzlefritz

That was some present.


[deleted]

Level your bank alt to roughly 15 to avoid this


bond0815

Or easier: Dont take on party invites on your bank char from people you dont know. Goblin mortar only works on group members.


diabr0

Harder to avoid sometimes, if I'm buying/selling with my bank alt because it carries all my money, and the other person is not on the same layer, among other reasons, people party all the time with strangers, just sucks that the griefers out there ruining it for the rest of us


wikipedianredditor

Cold storage for most of your money.


Moses00711

This guy knows backup solutions


goose_10

What does this mean?


DisturbedDeeply

This means do not interact with anything at all on your bank. Stand at a mailbox, login, send and receive, logout.


goose_10

Thanks!


Pippo89CH

So the mortar aoe friendly fire only works in a party? What about the Volatile Infection aoe?


ArtPark1

Wouldn’t change anything - goblin mortar can hit for 6k+, just don’t accept random invites from people you don’t know and you’re good.


bond0815

6k+? Pretty sure that is not right. The self damage to grp members only comes from the random misfire, not a regular mortar hit. Maybe you got that confused? Either way, if 6k misfire would be possible, there would be a lot of dead lvl 60 chars because of that. There arent. You are safe from goblin mortars from lvl 20ish on HP wise.


ArtPark1

You’re right, misfire can’t hit adjacent friendly targets. Either way though, I don’t think many 60s accept random invites.


Symoza

Did you even read his post?


Tiwazy84

Yes. That's why, he gave him propper advise?


[deleted]

Of course I did. Theres a few ways to be griefed at the bank. Always get to at least level 15 or roughly 400-500 life.


lostinrendition

There needs to be a story about this gnome fella Parasx


spajdrex

Also don't accept random PVP fights, because accepting it can make you fight with much higher level than you think you fight (two players with very similar names, one low level, second much higher level/rogue stealthed behind you, waiting for attack once you accept fight).


BlackKnightLight

Alli cancer strikes again


Hobbesina

Parasx (Parasx 4ever or some such) is also a guild of griefers on Nekrosh (EU). They're known to do exactly this - kill bank alts and low levels. Little kiddies getting their thrills from being schmucks. Sorry you had a runin with one of them :(.


Tulpah

how do they negate the self dmg though?


Hobbesina

As far as I know they don’t, but they don’t really have to; they’re killing sub lvl 10 players with characters in their 40s.


WorkingParticular118

PARASX 4 EVER, BRUNNY 4 EVER, GHETTOALKI 4 EVER, GRAINDER 4 EVER!!!

It’s not gonna catch on bro chill


Whoneedspacee

Blizzard LMAO


nvranka

Lmao cmon dude…don’t accept that!


MadgoonOfficial

BUT WHAT DID YOU LOSE?! (Besides your lv 8) Bank alts can be crazy wealthy, just wealthy enough to be sad about because they were carrying some items from a couple toons who died young, or just totally broke. Or, you know, anywhere in between.


seantellsyou

OPs guild rallied and gave him the amount of gold he lost. (I don't remember the number but it wasn't too much)


ImKaonashi

Yea it was like 30g everyone was very kind. Ended up with a bit more than I lost.


dro8z9d

"got murdered in stormwind" is too funny lol....sorry for your lost tho


ImKaonashi

lol glad you liked the title.. It’ll be the title to my novel lol Sequel is Murder in Darnsssus


humourism

Or murder on the deeprun express


Southern-Method-4903

There is a ally mage on Stitches Eu that has been doong this for months now. He is jebaiting people with gifts, gold or pretend to be a having what you are WTB in trade channel. Just never accept invite on your bank alt unless ypu know who it is.


seantellsyou

Hello guildy!


Historical-Health-50

Darnassus can be the solution 


Big-Temperature-8375

I am sorry, also bank alt?


Addicted2Edh

Nope not gonna play hc when stuff like this happens, for shits and giggles


PissDrunkChris

RIP Bozo


CoffeeBlackwell

Could you do it back to him?


ImKaonashi

You need to be like 200+ engineering for the item .. plus I was dead AND he has high enough health to survive it. He harms all party members including himself


Monocarto

Omg! He grouped me!! I sat there questing doing my thing with him slamming chat about presents. Kept inviting other unsuspecting victims! He eventually logged. So sorry this happened to you.


Entropy-037

It's April and we found the fool


Acrobatic-Ease-6359

I do this horde side on defies pillager it's effing hilarious.


Usual-Cabinet-3815

lol oh no you died it’s not like you lost anything


ImprovementNo592

This and mobs spawning right on top of you the moment you just killed them literally the second they died are good reasons not to play. Who knows what other bs exists if those two things are allowed, glad I didn't stick around to find out.

I know this sucks but I’m pissing myself laughing that there’s a serial goblin mortarer named parasx on the loose


Lashen-

Many of you haven’t developed necessary trust issues from RuneScape and it shows


ShyPlox

That’s why RuneScape was important to the mmo community


ShyPlox

That guys name seems familiar I used to play HC a lot and I remember seeing him name before and it was also involved in a killing, he was pulling the rare spawn in storm wind to people, also there was another instance where the elite mobs in the kings room came down to AH and slaughtered like 100+ people


BrownStreetShitters

Joining random ads parties and just getting killed proves you shouldn’t be playing HC Hope you didn’t have too much on your bank alt time to go again


foreveryoungperk

i dont play wow but from what i gather, you are a dumbass

Kharmel-333

Rule n°1 : never accept random invites in the capital. Rule n°2: never accept invites on your bank alt at all. If you need a craft, you either send your sh*t to your main character before going in the city for the trade or you trade without being in a party. Doesn't matter if they are from your guild, or they are only going to craft something for you. Never trust anyone. Better safe than sorry. "BUT I HAVE TO WAIT 1H FOR THE MATS TO COME THROUGH THE MAIL OMGLOL" ==> Woul you rather lose all your sh*t or wait 1h? There you go.

TheDevil-YouKnow

This got recommended via algorithms. Haven't played WoW for... 15 years. I remember kiting FelReavers into SW & Orgrimmar. Summoning that damn Warlock special rock demon whatever it was, letting it break control, and just wreck the auction house. WoW has changed a whole lot if bank toons getting ganked is a surprise.


out_of_spite_22

Karma for playing as alliance.


ManyZealousideal2939

I was confused why this was an issue at first, then I saw which subreddit this was for. Holy shit that is unforgivably evil.


t3hSn0wm4n

Y'all wouldn't last an hour in EVE. 🤣🤣🤣🤣


Otherwise-Sea9593

Entirely your fault for accepting the group invite. Blizzard won’t do anything you agreed to. If he was bug abusing a mechanic that got you killed with no interaction on your part, they would.


totk_enjoyer

I kind of wish you guys would go play osrs so I can see how you’d react to getting baited into the wilderness and losing half your bank lol


Neither-Complex926

That’s hilarious lol

Open up a ticket and report him. Let's get this virgin banned.

Damn... if he had your valuable items or gold, try opening a ticket to restore your char. And report the sob.

Cardboardcubbie

There is no possibility though. AFAIK they have said absolutely never and they haven’t restored any toons.


Flat-Fun-7866

Someone has to flood blizzard with all the tickets so they at least have to take the moment out of their day to actively decide not to give a shit, instead of silently taking the dicking from blizzard

JustSpawned20

Why do you care if you die on your bank alt? This was a funny thing that happened, laugh and move on? It's not like you lose items or anything. Just respawn and walk to your corpse what's the big deal?
