Is there a admin monitoring zone chat? Because the spam is out of control today.

We have a winner. +1 :cool:
Will /danceseductive for ZEN. :cool:
Right click on the name report for spam if enough people report the user there will be muted, also once you report they are auto added to your ignore list.
The more you know.
Why the devs don't implement the basic feature of flood protection is beyond me. I guess because they can't charge you zen to enable flood protection so it's low priority?
And people wonder why Cryptic uses a system where players ignoring and reporting as spam people causes them to get a chat lockout for 24 hours.
See this kind of stuff if it really offends you and is clearly selling spam so report it. Otherwise ignore them. Both actions contribute to locking their chat out.

then everyone just moves to trade chat to actualy chat :P
I was just on, busily reporting spammers for spam (and not just AD/gold selling, some people actually seem to think that posting the same LFG message over and over and over again is going to get them a group). It really is unusable, even if people just posted one message at a time, there's too many people in the one channel.
Yes, I know, I can just leave Zone chat. But I hate doing that, because sometimes I want to sell something, or to get a group, or even because I actually LIKE helping people. If I leave Zone I can't do any of those things.
There needs to be some kind of choke on the channel - separating it out into General, Trade, and LFG would be a good start, because then I would only need to be in the channels I want to use at the time I want to use them, and not have to wade through chat I don't need or want to read. Forcing a delay on the ability to post to the channel would help too... though perhaps the latter is a little too draconian a fix.
