All i want atm is that we get an option that i can hide eles on my screen - and their sounds too.

Would be the best way for both sides atm.

Ok there is alot of work to do if players are "on elephants" - so maybe they get "standing emote" or when ele is moved "walkin/running" animation for players which disable eles on screen. 

Heared 1 player gets a ban by a gm cause he trashtalk enraged to him while he removed some eles. So this was no ban for parking eles ! Had a look at forum but think its not a perma ban - may few days or a week i think. 

Pls use this thread to enter your opinion but its like "hawaii-pizza" - some like hot pineapples on pizza - others not ! There is no reason to discuss in here about it - ok - you can enter your arguments but in this thread everyone has its own statement and i accept this. 

AND - we need more posts in this thread - thats the only way to get a solution for both sides !

Btw.: it isnt helpful to vote posts down until they arent shown anymore - everyone has its own opinion about eles and can post em. We need EVERY post in this thread until this problem will be solved for both sides !

Pls.: enter your statement but be fair to others which may have another opinion ! 

Ok now i want to write about another argument - maybe some developers think about it.

One player can have placed one mount/wagon as long he/she is online AND two guild elephants which are still ingame when placing player is offline !

So 3 players can use 3 mounts/wagons and 6 guild eles at same time - for example !

Another step would be helpful when a player can have only ONE mount active and this should be only shown when this player is online !

So parked eles where handled like ships and GMs dont have to look at "placed eles" anymore which stand around 1 week on rooftop and no player from their guilds is around !

This step is only to evade "ganking" other players - so helgenes - you can place your guild elephant everywhere but if you go offline your mount will be removed too. 

May this would be a "fast step" until we get an option to disable guild elephants from screen !

What do you think about it ? 

Be fair and there is no need to get enraged ! We need both sides in here !

First part was a bit difficult to understand but, if the TL;DR is:
"Elephants can be summoned and used as usual, but if the player logs out that summoned it, the summon is returned to stable"

Then sure, that's a fine compromise. I was already ingame yesterday talking to some kama2 folks, informing you guys of what's happening but; the elephant debate has outgrown trolls/RP discussions, its now quickly becoming a central part of the ongoing PvP player protests against wide-spread changes being introduced to the game's core identity (or rather, the removal of any identity).

So, even with these proposed compromises, I doubt things will change in the forseeable future, though I am glad that your side is also open for proper constructive discussions now.

All they have to do is make it no mount summonable areas. As someone pointed out when you log out after 15 minutes the elephant disappears along with them or have it take massive amounts of hitpoint damage to the point it goes back into the nearest stable keeper.

I don't understand stand why its so hard for them to code this in the game. Again, they've only had over 9 years to remedy this, as it has been reported even when there were three BDO servers available.

Maybe change channels... You're seriously upset at people for ruining your dance spot? Give me a break! Say the GM's do remove all of the elephants and whatever. What then? Remove ANYONE who annoys you? Cope. Put on your big boy (or girl) pants and deal with it like an adult and try to remember, it's only a game! 

After seeing some of the responses I'm receiving, it's getting harder to empathize.

Honestly I hope more elephants show up now. Carry on. ;)
