What should I do about a player threatening me?
What should I do about a player threatening me?
The player named "LindaJones" started sending me rude messages an hour ago, yelling and insulting me, and would not explain what she was talking about. I tried to talk to her and ask her to tell me what she meant. She said she was reporting me for insulting her or cussing or something, even though only she was yelling and insulting to me. I reported her rude messages. She then said I was going to get gagged, but I don't know what that means. She also said she was going to attack our clan castle. She sent me so many messages that I had to add her to my ignore list because it was filling up my messages folder. I think she is insane. Would you please have someone explain to her what I tried to tell her; that I do not know everything about this game, and I would have been happy to work with her if she had just been polite and told me what the terms were she was using? If she will calm down and stop insulting and attacking me and my friends, I am still willing to listen.
Re: What should I do about a player threatening me?
I have mentioned this issue to a few people now. I don't know what her problem is. I was willing to work with her and stop whatever was bothering her, but she wouldn't explain anything to me. I told her I was still learning this game and asked her simple questions, but still that did not work. I even told her I would cancel my missions if she would just tell me what was wrong and how to recall them, but she ignored that and kept threatening me. I must have asked her to explain herself half a dozen times before giving up trying to work with her. I think she just wants to attack people for some reason.
Also, when I sent rolphs to the empty city at 35-10-53 (and I did check that it was empty before proceeding, and only went there because another player advised my clan to go there), most of them were killed by something. Is this city a ruin? Is it still in use by another player? Should we not send anything to it? If it belongs to a clan, how can we tell? Is there a way to send them a message to ask them if it is open for use? I'd like to not bother other players or clans, especially after how strange and threatening LindaJones behaved an hour ago.
Again, I do not know much about this game. I have played for a few months and am still learning. If there are certain cities that we are not supposed to go to, I will not bother them. I just want to know what is going on and stop being threatened and insulted by other players.

Re: What should I do about a player threatening me?
I just found out how to stop missions that are already sent, but the player LindaJones killed all my forces before I could make the recall. I just got a report that my units were killed. She didn't give me any chance to change the mission. Now I have to remake a lot of units. Can an admin please tell her to stop attacking my units? I never attacked any of her forces or cities, and tried to explain that I would stop my missions if she just told me how to do that.
Re: What should I do about a player threatening me?
It seems to me that you've been attacking other players, and now you complain about them killing your units. What should have they done? 35-10-53 is not an empty city, but the domain of Toons59 who is a 5* player. LindaJones is also a 5* player, so according to the rules of the game, it is not possible that any of them have attacked you. It must have been you who attacked. I perfectly understand that they are upset about it. But I can see you are a member of a clan, so why don't you ask your clanmates to help you understand the game? You can also read the encyclopaedia (the second button in the top left corner of the screen).

I should also mention that player "DakotaStanfield" started sending me rude messages with cussing in them. I had not been messaging him, I did not attack any of his cities, and I had to set him to "ignore". Please tell these players to show some respect to other players. I did my best to explain that I am still learning, and I was not trying to attack any clans or anything else, and I even sent out apology letters, but none of that worked; these immature people kept sending me rude and threatening messages.
Re: What should I do about a player threatening me?
No, I was not attacking other players. That city was empty. I was told by a member of my clan that it had crystals so I went to look. There were no troops in it. There was no activity there.
Linda even confirmed that the player of that city is inactive.

Re: What should I do about a player threatening me?
Yes, you were. You have said: "LindaJones killed all my forces". It can not happen if you don't attack her, because no one can attack lower level players. You must have started the attack, there is no other way.
Re: What should I do about a player threatening me?
I may be late to this conversation...
I checked 35-10-53 ... there is no city there, so Toons59 must have moved his city if anything. Otherwise it is/was a ruin or outer domain.
Technically, Smile64, there is a way because outer domains are exempt from the Honor rule...but this probably didn't happen, Auz probably has no outer domains yet.
I'm only pointing this out as a technicality -- you are probably on the right track.
AuzPrime, message me in game if you need any explanation for the game and mechanics -- I'd be glad to help you understand.
Or reiterate your questions here and I'll address them for you.
As for the named players harassing you, I'd say let it go for now--I'll have a chat with them. As long as their threats are in-game and not threatening you in real life then it really means nothing. This server has built up lots of angst because of players like Flyin and the clan Warlords bullying and enslaving everyone underneath them, so many frustrated Suzerains will take out their anger on weaker players and newbies so they can feel some sort of power themselves. It isn't their fault really, there's no outlet otherwise. If it were up to me all would rally together instead of wasting all our time and energy fighting each other while Flyin and Warlords dominate the realm. As the saying goes, "Sh*t rolls down hill."

Yes, I know there are ways to attack lower level players, but I didn't want to confuse him even more.

AuzPrime, it's a military strategy game, attacks and wars between players are normal.
