JimG Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 The amount of credit selling spam in general chat the last few days is getting pretty ridiculous. Will BW pull the plug on general chat for all free players because of this? Doesn't seem they have any other way to regulate it as these people can just keep registering endless free accounts after they get banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They write a line and have to wait a minute. If they purchase anything toward the game, then the restriction is removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only time ive ever seen a credit seller spamming the general chat was about a week after launch... and then a month later i got one ingame e-mail as well... But thats it. What server are you on? Also, removing the ability for F2P players to speak on general chat would be a disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen one or two since F2P and after reporting them and putting them on ignore the problem was solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do something BIOWARE, don't let this crap run rampant like that other company! aye, a very good solution to goldsellers is an account wide ignore list ... i believe the ignore currently functions that the entire ignorees' account is ignored, not just that particular chacter. If that is true, and i believe it is, then i love it. but having to listen to some racist shout stuff, put him on ignore and then log to another character and have to read it again, that is very annoying indeed. as for the OP, i havent seen a single goldseller spam since the first week of launch. Red Reaper doesnt seem to be hit much by them. We all knew that F2P would bring the wow mentality/players to the game ... hence why i was personally so dead set against it ... increasing numbers of the servers has just made lag bad and players attitudes worse, but thats a different story eh. Got one mail from a goldspammer .. just reported it, took the credit and deleted it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chimex Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 (edited) Got one mail from a goldspammer .. just reported it, took the credit and deleted it. Nooooo! Never take the free credit from the "hello friend" mail. It's their way to check to see if your account is active. Ignore it and it gets returned to them so they believe your account is inactive, But always report, of course Edited November 30, 2012 by chimex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoogleNut Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I haven't come across any gold-spammers on Red Eclipse (EU) - getting pretty sick and tired of all the racists and homophobes though >< And I'm not just talking the 'regular-it's-just-something-gamers-say' kind (which is still wrong) - some of what's been in general the past few weeks has been beyond vile. To be honest it would be a nice change to see a gold-farmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirorx Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 If you are reported by 10 people for spam, you should be flagged for pvp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
