I'm sure the threads been created a million times but, can nothing be done? It's getting out of hand and makes me not want to play when all channels of a map are being used, you find one and someone just comes in not giving a crap and just ksing you. Especially when it's a class with better mobbing.

    Ask them to leave and report them if they don't, it's technically against the rules.
    Other than waiting for them to leave or get banned, no there isn't really anything.

    I doubt it's against the rules at all. People won't get banned for ksing, it's not worth the report cuz you'll be flooding their reports with bs like this.

    To the OP, honestly just wait it out. Most people who KS just want the map and if they can't get it, they'll end up leaving cuz you won't. Happened a few times to me, if you're killing the mobs and the other person is too, he's getting less exp which he'll leave. Doesn't always work though also being on a high pop server doesn't help.

    Despite this, i actually went ahead and submitted a manual ticket via Nexon support site. This kind of behavior should not be allowed in my opinion...it's basically directly griefing someone when you hop into their map and start ksing them when you can clearly see they're training there and were there before you.

    It IS against the rules, regardless if you think it's worth reporting or not, it is against the rules.

    Simple. Be social. Make friends. Then when some @as comes to ks u, call upon ur homies to completely obliterate the map together until the kser leaves

    Ahh thank you. I searched for it after i posted that comment. Sure it is against the rules but reporting wont get them banned. Prob a talking to or something. They also should make it an option when you report them ingame instead of making a ticket.
    People will ks, trick you to leave your map, etc. But there are other maps to train on aswell.

    Technically you could file a report in-game, as there are multiple very broad subjects for filing a report, but there isn't one specifically for "kill stealing".
    As far as getting banned for the offensive, it just depends on the GM handling the case, repeat offensives, etc etc.
