[Discussion] Scroll trolling in Cyrodiil

Discussion

And of course, there's nothing at all to be done about it because everybody knows ZOS don't action reports on the issue, so the trolls just laugh at the naive suggestion. We had scroll trolls forever, but I'm seeing more often guilds involved doing it. It's not just the loss of scrolls, it also ties up a huge chunk of the faction.

Edit: removed name of the guild currently doing this as not sure that's appropriate here.

Now I obviously notice when this is done against AD on Vicec... do we have trolls doing this too the other way around? The only time I've seen somebody suggest it, zone chat filled with people screaming at them not to do it, that it was a scummy thing to be doing, and we didn't want to be winning like that... I've just watched a large portion of EP move to pick up that scroll, so are there cries from the other side that it's a shitty thing to be doing that I just don't see? It doesn't appear that way, it appears organised between guilds, but I get I'm not seeing the whole picture.

Is it unreasonable to expect ZOS to allocate a GM to PvP campaigns?... genuine question. In older games having GMs on call for such issues was taken for granted, so at an earlier point in time it was viable commercially to provide such support. The norm now seems to be no GMs on call. It would be easy for an on-call GM to resolve issues like this quickly as they occur, and would prevent the need for account faction locking and stuff like that which I'm seeing discussed again.
