So, Were in a new legion rebuilding, Decided to do the old way and recruit via legion comms, Bad idea..... Some one took it very badly! and got all smurfed up and blue in the face over it.

So I tried to solve it.... no luck, Then resorted to blocking this player!, But there's a catch its impossible to block him for some reason!.... I put in the necessary /block "PLAYERNAME" Which I'm not going to repeat lol... Either way to the effect I got the beautiful notice of....

[14:02] Unable to block - that player does not exist.

Multiple try attempts etc to no luck, Has this occurred before, Can I get around this? I have messaged this to Dan, Awaiting a reply, But maybe there's something I am missing?

Thank you!

Did you type the name EXACTLY as it appears? Remember that a "l" and an "I" look identical in the game font. Also, did you try with AND without quotation marks? Did the player happen to change names?

I Don't know if they changed names to be honest lol, Me and him haven't exchanged pleasantries in fact quiet the opposite hence why i'm trying to block him lol,

I have tried every way possible, exactly how it looks with quotation marks, Tried "l" and "I" as that's in there name... No luck I have requested fellow leaders try with no success but when a officer tries it requests that a Leader or officer can only make that command, or something along those lines of speech, Strange stuff with this player.

I CAN PM you there name and legion, So maybe it can be looked into?

Thankyou

As my responsibility is only to the Forum and I have no way of affecting anything in the game, you should first try to send a report in-game. If that does not resolve the situation, send a PM to Webguydan.

Have you tried to copy/paste their name (being sure to remove extraneous spaces at the beginning and end if necessary)? Or highlighting their name and doing a drag and drop? Have used both of these methods for putting things into the chat before. Note that this doesn't appear to work with a clickable link (such as from the news tab), as it seems to past the link and not the name.

It pastes clickable names as links if you're using Chrome's drag and drop because when you drag a link it picks up the link. >.> Dragging the whole block then deleting it will pick up the name.

Don't know about Chrome cause I don't use it; I use Firefox. After some testing with the clickable links on the News tab, I found that the drag and drop method will paste the name if there is a space before or after the clickable link, otherwise it pastes the link. This works for the one at the beginning of the message line. The one at the end of the time stamp line always pastes as a name.

I am aware of one player with this glitch.

I spoke with Dan about it roughly 3-4 weeks ago who confirmed "glitch" and advised would work on it.

I haven't bothered to push the issue because if its a one player glitch Dan has more important things to do than work on that honestly.

without going into specifics so as to encourage people to make themselves block proof, it was a hi ranked player who is now ex-cosa. If your's is the same guy its just a single player glitch, if not pm me Dexter and i'll bet we figure the glitch easy.
