    No, Yesterday I was when I first tagged but then I left party and went to the Oracle and requested protection. Since that time, even tho I again went to the oracle and requested protection to be restored , I have remained tagged.

    @Alley Oop I must apologize for sending this bug report. I just found out this afternoon that my guild is in guild war with another guild which will last for a few days. That means that I am automatically flagged PVP until the war is over.

    Thank you Alley Oop for offering the suggestion that it would be good to post the information that a particular guild or guilds are at war and will be flagged PVP until the war is finished. :)

    to devs: we discussed it privately and i suggested
    having a pop-up show at login like the login rewards pop-up, so a previously uninformed player can make a choice of where to load before they enter the game in a vulnerable location unprepared, and/or
    having the oracle mention current guild war status if there is one when flagging/unflagging.

    Bug/Improvement# 68006 created.

    Bug:
    The player is told by the Oracle that they are under her protection when they are really still in PVP because the player is in a party where the leader is flagged as PvP -or- if the player's guild is in a guild war.
    -> The Oracle should advise the player that they will not un-flag for PvP at this time because: <reason> (party, Guild war, Shardfall, Ruins, or otherwise flagged scene, etc) and the unflag will take effect when they are no longer in that state.

    The visual [PVP] indicator on the player's tag should indicate if the player is in a temporary PvP state. Like [Temp PvP]

    Improvement Request portion:
    A. Having a pop-up show at login like the login rewards pop-up, so a previously uninformed player can make a choice of where to load before they enter the game in a vulnerable location unprepared.
    *and*
    B. have Oracle remind the player they are in a forced PvP state due to (party, Guild war, etc) when they talk to the Oracle (not requiring that they ask about protection) as a reminder of their PvP exposure.
