I had concerns about this when the news post dropped; I don't think users should be able to negatively influence how my energy bar functions (it's easily abusable; blocking users doesn't prevent them from attack you so being mobbed by people who have rabies is definitely a real thing). Even if it is 20sb-- that's a bone marrow a day in order to correct the problem and seeing as people can give you rabies multiple times a day and you can only buy one marrow...

I've already been attacked consistently by one user who seems determined to give me rabies when they get it and I'm not only losing my energy but I'm losing my event currency.

This is not fun to wake up to. I want to focus on gathering beetles, not having to check my lion for rabies every hour because one player is being a jerk because staff pretty much gave them the go-ahead. Energy should not be touched, ever.

Thanks for coming to my Ted-talk.

I absolutely support this. It doesn't make sense to me for one player to be able to influence another player's progress in the event.

Especially not negatively. Most of us have better stuff to do, but there's nothing stopping a bunch of players from just gang-infecting one player hour after hour for some petty, spiteful nonsense.

Im pretty sure you can report that, Jax. If you see someone definitely attacking you to give you rabies, bring it up to mods so they can affect the situation!

Whilst I personally don't care about rabies/receiving it from players, I can't imagine how annoying it must be to be swarmed by players hell-bent on infecting you constantly.

Whilst Devil's Claws aren't that expensive in themselves, it would definitely drain your BB count if you had to continuously purchase them all throughout the event.

I shouldn't have to report it. Staff should've never given users this ability to start with.

Indeed, that's why I supported this suggestion!
But also reporting it will bring this issue to the mods' attention sooner! Let them know it's really bothering you and its not an idle issue? It could help getting it fixed sooner for the entire site - wont hurt to bring this up, at least.

Letting them know some users abuse rabies as a way to harass someone might make them consider changing it sooner.

If this person keeps it up, I will, but I'm not confident anything will be done. After all, they aren't technically breaking any rules.

Keep in mind you can attack a player what...every hour I think? (I don't PvP much) so this is potentially rabies every hour. Rabies + my energy returning slower because my king can't eat.

Really not cool.

Definitely bring this up to the mods if they keep it up; also, I believe you may also contact that person and ask them to stop, Rabies IS something affecting your gameplay, and if you dont want it - then you dont want it. If you ask them to choose someone else to attack and they keep it up, Im sure mods will be able to take action then.

I've blocked them in an attempt to get them to stop. Also, if they're doing it out of spite they're probably not going to stop and since that technically falls under unsolicited messages, they can actually get the mods on ME now and I'm the one possibly getting warned.

@I would definitely report it asap. I'm sure you won't get in trouble for blocking someone if you have a good reason (Which you do), so the mods can take care of it.

In that case do not PM them and simply go to the mods with that issue; let mods know you're being harassed and targetted and let the mods deal with that issue. If they indeed only attack you for the sake of giving you rabies, it will be seen in their user logs and mods will take action.

It is indeed a way to abuse game mechanics to harass someone, so I hope this loop hole will get closed up soon! Dont be shy to report it if is bothering you; rules arent paragon, they get changed as new issues come up, and if you dont report it, mods wont know there IS an issue. Lioden mods are very nice and professional, personal experience, it wont be held against you to report it.

you do have a point, but i feel like this would remove a realistic feature from this event. perhaps instead of removing it, there should be a limit to how much you can spread rabies? i'm staying neutral for now.

Perhaps make it so rabies cannot be contacted from user attacks more than 1 time; so if user attacked you and gave you rabies, they cannot give you rabies anymore.
