Shaunri33 Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Well, im sure about every person over 80 combat as been followed by people that are lvl 50 and below and won't leave you alone, especially f2p people. Wouldn't it be great if you could have a turn off follow button? or option? Like, i get 50 people a day following me when im just trying to raise my skills, and they don't get the point when you don't talk to them. Here are some examples I have had of people following me and saying stuff: "Will you marry me" "Whered you get your armour" "Howd you get such a high lvl" "Can i have some free stuff please" "Money for the poor" "Wanna be my friend?" "Your hot" Like cmon they even follow me into the wild cause im pking, thats why hal way through the day i usually turn off public chat and just sit in train or raise skills in piece. BUt i still get people following me, this one guy followed me aroudn for an hour trading me and when i eventually traded him he tried to give me bronze! Sign your name if you agree that we need this option If you have any questions about World of Warcraft or you need an explanation about something, please feel free to pm me.

countingcrow Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 I agree totally! The only people who should ever follow me are those on my friends list. No one else. I can't stand it when some kid latches on to me, and begs for food, or tries to scam me. This would be an easy fix in the game, and needs to happen. The less bothering high lvl players get from "noobs", the better! I'm all for this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivan_the_hun Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Like youmakemesik said, just ignore them. But yes, it would be nice having an off-follow option... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad25891 Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 I think it shud be like trade if some one requests to trade then u can accept and if the ppl are asking to folow you then u can either accept or decline. 8) Brad Deviant Art Account2 Signatures | 6 Photographs | 1 Other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaunri33 Posted January 18, 2005 Author Share Posted January 18, 2005 try ignoring them? :roll: Im guessing your p2p and dont know what its like, oh ya i ignore them, like I said half way through the day ill turn off public chat, but they still follow me for over an hour If you have any questions about World of Warcraft or you need an explanation about something, please feel free to pm me.

countingcrow Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 It isn't jsut f2p, there are plenty of followers in p2p as well. I hate people who leech just to annoy you, so I see this as a great option to have. Ignore gets rid of their chat, but many of them will continue to follow you, sometimes for 15 minutes or more.

Barihawk Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 try ignoring them? :roll: Im guessing your p2p and dont know what its like, oh ya i ignore them, like I said half way through the day ill turn off public chat, but they still follow me for over an hour Your exagerating (i doubt they follow you for hours on end, most get fed up after 5 minutes), but try to make the best of it. I ask them to dance and shout praise to me, and I give them a little money if we arrive at my destination and they are still there. My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers. Believe me, nothing except a battle lost can be half so melancholy as a battle won. -Sir Arthur Wellesley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zamorakian-warrior Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 i always say ''stop following me or i'll report you'' they always believe that :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thassilian Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Following is a vital part of pking though, so it'd make pking even more bs if it was able to be turned off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riptide Mage Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 I love when they follow me to the wild! I pk'ed a full suit of iron off a level 50!...It was all he owned! You make it sound like running through a few level 87 monsters is hard which it really shouldn't be at your level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No im not exagerating, he was annoying as hell, i was about to go into the wild and kill him but then i remembered he was to low lvl. And for the pking thing you could just turn it back on when your pking? If you have any questions about World of Warcraft or you need an explanation about something, please feel free to pm me.

captainpoet Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Well I do agree on this...Just as long as there was of course a friends option on it. As well though some of them will just manually follow you then. Usually what I do to these people is either teleport or put private chat on friends and change worlds :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aoshi153 Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Why don't you just switch worlds? or Just run away from them sometimes noobs don't have their run button on i always run away from noobs when they follow me. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Enkidutorix Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 im lvl 85 and i like following begging noobs to begg em!! i catch em off guard and i love it!!! Yay to the following option!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 whats the follow button have to do with this? They can still click where your going :roll: And try begging them for stuff, it always works :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkey_eyes Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 i think back to when i was lv 50-below, i was curious to what it is like to be a higher level im nice to noobs and try to answer their questions An off follow button might be a neat addition, but there is other small little things that jagex could spend better time fixing.

Donahue65 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 This would be awesome if they made it so they couldnt follow you :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom_Levi Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Why not just let them follow you up a staircase, then you go down it and start sprinting. Or try the high-level wilderness. Noobs aren't too fond of greater demons. Or just teleport somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
