I really at to criticise this game or the developer but "Silence bans" Should have to go through a GM or something. I just received this about 15 min ago. I have not spoken in /Zone chat other than post for LFG. I got several /whispers about no way my GS is as high as I was posting then I got silenced..... Talk about a clear case of Haters going to hate... is it my fault that im 11124gs.... is it my fault that my groups get bosses cleared and I've had great luck on gear drops.... These kids need to grow up.

    I sympathise with you.

    I still can't imagine how anyone could possibly think that it was a good idea to have automated ban system in place based on others user actions, but such is the 'system' we have now.

    This system makes no sense. It is too easy for someone to not like something you say, even if it is unoffensive and on topic, and then just keep reporting you everytime you post in public chat. This filter system is over the top. Just let people be ignored. and be done with it.

    Sure gold sellers are annoying and most likely the reason this system is in place but there should be a better way. One way utilized by other games is a name filter that makes players have names that make sense. Then the gold sellers can't just type in NJFNISDH and make a toon. They have to use a set ratio of vowels to consonants. It isn't a solution as much as it is a speed bump. With densely populated MMOs most names will be taken and it will take them longer to get in and start their process.

    Like I said not a solution, just a thought.

    You know you say that as a joke, but it would kind of be the ultimate point and bad publicity if you could somehow mute the entire server, and drive home the point that its really an awful, lazy system.

    Sorry man, but I have come to realize that nothing is going to change in this game. Sure, bugs will be ironed out and the game will run better in the end. But I dont believe things like the chat mute will be changed, or prices in the zen store, or the need/greed system, or the pay to win aspects (top enchant gems wardstones and the ability to buy end game gear in the AH).

    This company doesnt want to listen to its player base and their complaints, comments or ideas. I have seen this <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> happen before with Funcom and Age of Conan. So, though I bought the 60 Pack and some zen for bags, I have finally come to the decision to not spend anymore money with PWE/Cryptic. And it is quite sad, because cryptic makes pretty good games, but PWEs business model is terrible beyond words (hence their BBB rating it seems.) For the moment, like many others out there, I will be playing NWO casually and without investment until ESO comes out.

    Seriously. FREE2PLAY but PAY4FUN really sucks. Especially since in the long run you will spend far more than you would on a monthly sub. Just as the penny arcade comic about league of legends points out.

    We've been thinking that for years over on CO/STO. Still haven't gotten a good answer out of anyone yet.

    Good luck.

    Really? I can easily:

    "Players complain about gold farmers, what do we do to fix that without having to deal with it ourselves?"
    "Let the players ban the gold farmers themselves!"
    "Brilliant! Will that cause any other issues you think?"
    "Who cares, next topic!"

    Were you one of the people that spammed 10 rows in succession with your looking for group message? Because I've /ignored about 15 of those people in the last hour. Nothing like seeing the same message 10 times in 2 seconds.

    I guess the company expected to have players that acted like adults and therefore had a system that kids could abuse. Pity we cannot have good things

    Did you not read that guy's earlier thread of how the chat ban system works? How it can be abused?
