That is not what I was looking for. I just wanted to know if people were in favor of it, yes or no. How long isn't up to us, it's up to ANet.

If that's the case, then I see no reason not to ban them. They broke the rules, they should receive punishment. Simple as that.

I agree with Aera Lure...
The obvious abuse of the chat system should be one of the reasons as well as context.
I would like to see Anet expand the suppression they use now.
First time....30 secs
Second Time...2 min 30 secs
Third Time...12 min 30secs
Fourth Time...62 min 30 secs
Fifth Time...5hrs 12 min 30 secs
Anytime after 5...24 hrs
With the stipulation that the ban is for all chat except Guild and Team

if they keep doing this, i expect them to start banning leechers as well. they're much more hurtful to others' gameplay then spammers. spammers can be shut out by turning off the trade channels.

Trade Spam is NOT the only spam so the "lazy" argument doesn't apply

I say spammers should get a mute (cant use local or trade chat) for at least 30 mins and those trading in local should recieve a 72 hour ban, with repeat offenders getting longer and tougher punnishments.
Or for first time offenders, give them a warning in the form of a system message. If they give the excuse they didn't see it because trade spam forced it off screen to fast then they can't deny what they are doing is causing a problem.

No ban, but a mute, for like a day or two. Ban is overkill.

But it's not a simple yes or no.
Yes if it is you and no if it is me.
On second thought I would never do such a thing so just Yes...

No. It won't solve anything; just make things worse and piss off more and more of the community.

No other way of selling besides fansite auction/forums?
If there was an Auctionhouse or other means to sell maybe. but temp banning over selling an item is retarded.

Remember though, its not temp banning over selling an item... Its temp banning over abusive, repetitive spamming of sales related activities on the All channel. Think most of us frown on sales on the All channel, but we arent even talking about that. Not only is it on the wrong channel, its multiple line repitition in quantity is what we're looking at. Fundamentally nothing at all to do with or without an Auction House.

This thread is for the ALL channel not any other channel. Spamming in trade channel while still being a bit rude isnt anywhere near the same as the all channel.

"Worse" from the perspective of trade-spammers who insist on abusing the chat rules and are completely unwilling to utilize the options that aNet has provided its players (regardless of how flawed they may be).
