Now, THAT is a brilliant idea. Brilliant. Add the urls for the gold-sites to a chat filter just like the one for curse words.

"Get free ectos when you buy GW gold at RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO.com"

It would force the gold-sellers to register new websites (something more expensive than adding the new website to the filter list) or give up on spamming. Glorious!

Three cheers for Erk!

they are definitely bots, btw, me and a couple other chars figured out the ctrl+tab method they were using, timed and everything.

Edit: I just realized something. almost as annoying as the bots are the 10 yr olds that spam either emotes (/dance, over and over and over and over...) or spam stupid sayings. they are almost as bad.

The PM's from gold selling bots is something new to me. I have owned and played the game for over 2 years and have never once gotten a PM from a Bot selling gold. But alas, yesterday, in LA, Ascalon City, Kamadan and Kaineng City I was spammed PM's selling gold or pushing a website. Each spam hit me as soon as I entered the city regardless of district.

Junk mail is nothing new to me but I have filters and programs to deal with it in email ect. A game like GW on the other hand has nothing to offer to combat it except for reporting ect and getting spammed via PM in game is just something I dont feel we should tolerate. I paid good money to purchase all the campaigns plus the BMP and for what? to get spammed PM's until my ignore list is full? I dont want to spend my time /reporting XXXX. Never had to do this in the past, I just want to enjoy the game but hanging out in a town selling items and getting multiple PM's spams is nuts.

Bot Seller: *insert advert here*
Me: stfu
Bot Seller: *insert advert here*
Bot Seller: *insert advert here*

having 3 of those messages filling my screen is annoying, they also pm me when I'm not in great temple. More /report options would be a good idea I think.
