Look, it's great there are workarounds, and lord knows I've used them, but it doesn't excuse the behavior of these tools. Some of you guys have "accepted" too much in the way of abhorrent player behavior.

We're getting dangerously close to agreeing wholeheartedly with each other again on this topic here...

Here, I'll attempt to head off that agreement train with the following statement:

"Some of you guys are the ones perpetrating this behavior and who enjoy griefing others more than playing yourselves, which is why you're all "whee! Schadenfreude" about the people complaining. You're probably just trying to defend your own actions."

Did that help?

If not, you do not have the basic intellect to play this game.

Your server must be pretty small, or the griefer population. Right now, on Mal'ganis at the flight trainer there are literally 200 people standing in the same spot, 1/3rd of them on mammoth mounts. Going first person will NOT help, and neither do name plates.

Not when there's literally a hundred people in a small area. Three are too many name plates on the screen that they start moving around like crazy. GL clicking on it.


Key Binding "interact with target" and using /target name works the best.



Yo, I herd you could only turn on NPC nameplates and not player nameplates. Of course, that would require someone actually, you know, being smart enough to use the options/keybinds screens. Don't feel bad. Lots of people didn't know there was more than one page of keybinds/options.

Key Binding for Interact with Target is just as easy.
