The only place you can find ppl to fight on this srv besides bgs and wg is capital cities so if I'm going there and gank someone they will just qq and find reasons to punish that player just for the simple fact that they get annoyed by his presence there.

Did any of you even read what I wrote? The other player cannot know if the player should have the PvP on or off. They see the player in red they attack. And I already posted twice in this topic about the screenshots that were provided.

Point is, he is the one getting attacked and he thought he had flag off, right? If he knew the healthbar change he could prevent it, no?

If the PvP flag did not go off then no he could not prevent it. The screenshots provided show that he was still PvP flagged the moment he was attacked and as I said this was tested before and players cannot attack each other if their flag is offline. For the enemy player you will be displayed in blue while you will see the enemy in yellow. And of course if you buff or try to resurrect anyone you will trigger your PvP flag.

Unless there is anything else to be added to the player report itself to prove that somehow he attacked while Fjord had the PvP offline, the topic has no proof of Tenerbroo abusing any flags since as mentioned players can't possibly know that your flag is supposed to be off but it wasn't for some reason.

If you want to try it out you can take a friend at the either at PTR or live realm (be sure you are different factions) and test the flag out and you will see that once you see him as yellow he will not be able to attack you (of course if there is no bug that we are not aware of it).

Atleast fix the PvP-flag bug, I am unable to turn of the PvP flag on any of my characters.
- Toggling between enabled/disabled, then waiting for 5 minutes does not work.
- Logging off at 0 seconds in a friendly zone does not turn it off either.

Try do a real logout, a logout where you have to enter your password again in order to login.
Also, be in a friendly home city.

Due to the fact that the players can't know if your PvP flag should be on or off we cannot take any action when it comes to any form of punishment. For now the only thing I can tell you is to watch your PvP flag and indeed confirm that it is off (no alliance/horde icon near your name, your name needs to be written in blue and you will see enemy players in yellow).

I will be locking this topic now as it's already starting to go off-topic with discussions that should not happen in this report in the first place. The latest discussions should be taken elsewhere and not in the player reports section.
