Ramming - When does it constitute an attack? - Alestone - 06-10-2015

Today, I had a player ram me repeatedly in an attempt to prevent me from docking. He knocked me away from the base far enough to need to re-cover the distance multiple times.

No shots were fired, there was no conversation, but it was a de-facto aggressive action. I realize that the server rules don't really cover this.

At what point do I have the right to say, Enough?


As a side point, I believe that he called for a Lawful, and was attempting to hold me. I cannot prove it, but a lawful showed up suspiciously quickly and the ramming player docked immediately there after.

Constant ramming should count as an act of aggression to be honest. After a certain amount of deliberate rams, you should be able to attack them.

Whenever ramming is highly annoying blast em if they keep doing it for longer than 10seconds...

Ideally:

1: Record it happening
2: tell them to stop InRP and claim to open fire if they do not cease
3: set a time (20 seconds or so)
4 should they continue, blast 'em.

Much like with repeated CD'ing, I would definitely engage someone that's repeatedly ramming me.

And I imagine that much as CD'ing someone isn't an attack but doing so constantly is, ramming someone isn't an attack but doing so constantly is.

Just get repeated (with timestamp) screenshots or video of it happening and submit it under whichever rule covers "trolling" and similar behavior

I see intentional multiple ramming as an abuse of game mechanics & oorp, so report 'em when it becomes an issue

If they keep bumping you tell them too stop.

If they don't make them into a blue message.

What about excessive ramming if they are trying to prevent you from docking?

Then better learn the quickdock and be done with it fast.
If someone can ram you repeatedly when quickdocking, that docking guy is doing it wrong.
