Duke shouts: Let it be known that Zoe has logged on.
Duke shouts: Let it be known that Zoe entered Archosaur.
Duke shouts: Let it be known that Zoe used the bank.
Duke shouts: Let it be known that Zoe used the teleporter
Duke shouts: Let it be known that Zoe picked up 400 coins.
Duke shouts: Let it be known that Zoe got on her Skymanta Shade
Duke shouts: Let it be known that Zoe took 18930 damage from Harpy Wraith. (lol)

Duke could be worse!

Then Duke would be a damn spy/paparazzi.

Then it's no good ducktape. A real piece of ducktape saves your day, for cheap, for today, for good, forever.

P.S.: I am not sponsored by the company. Sadly.

Sorry, I shall not be investing in cheap materials.

Here is a hint:
Cheap strong glue alternatives found in your local dollar store will more often than not bring no good results (except when it's your fingers that get stuck together). Oh wait! Maybe that would be cool to use on the Duke. Let's try this on him. b:laugh

Hey all, we didn't mean for the Duke to behave this way - shouting for so many different items, but as sometimes happens with larger patches, he has reverted to his default behavior. It's definitely on the list of fixes for the next patch.

We apologize for the ridiculousness.

Is there any chance of ever implementing a way to purchase the option to turn him off? You could even make it so you couldn't buy it through the boutique, but rather pay for it as a separate option on the page where you charge zen, so that you'd be guaranteed to get RL money from players who wanted this.

I'd happily drop a hundred or so on you to get to get the ability to shut him off account-wide.

Is money the one and only way for people to be motivated to fix things and for annoying occurrences to stop? Surely you jest. b:scorn

I shall do that task with pleasure. In fact, thousands of people would volunteer to do that as well.

Edit: Holy Pan Gu of the Heavens... crazy glue lipstick to Duke... Urk. I would not fancy that torture. Don't do that at home at all, ever, kids (and adults alike).

Does it really annoy you that much? I like seeing the duke shouts. Gives us something to mloom att

Yuna_Sama - Heavens Tear

Yes it does... Everytime I go afk and leave the wisp or faction chat open to see if I got any messages while I was afk I have to look through over 100 Duke spams... Wich is enoying cause because of that I occasionaly miss important messages... b:surrender

Infernia - Harshlands

Ive kinda grown dull to them, after all this time to be honest. Itd be nice if I could take them out the whisper channel, since I use that to log messages when im AFK, but to be honest, its just something to read and go "oh, gratz *******" to while I grind nowadays.

He probably meant 'QQ' or 'troll' in some fashionable, innovative way. If it's not, I'd like to know what it means as well.

I was thinking hes on his ipod and the onscreen keyboard decided to go "**** YOUUUUU" and ruin his post. But thats a possibility, yes.

The way he was before maint wasnt so bad...just the best tokens announced. thats not too spamy, compared to what its at now.

Who can forget how it was when they started him back up. Spamfest every 5 seconds. Think there was even shouts for crafting an item =/.

And so, a new weird expression was born... (unless it indeed means some insult in an unknown language).

For real?! I joined the game just before munchkins... I mean genies appeared, Duke was rather tame at that time. Man... if I knew, I would have chosen another option.

The ridiculousness of how it's been since we got packs, or how it's been since you screwed it up further?

I understand the people in China love spam. I even like it with my eggs. But I absolutely hate it when the freaking Duke is flooding my window. I already turn off common and world chat. Give me the option to turn off the Duke. Or shut him the hell up already. Make it like the way he was before packs.

Of course PWE will never do this because they don't have a fracking clue and don't bother to care what the players think. Way to win fracking dev noobs.

I don't care who's at fault, how it happened, or whatever.
He just needs to be silenced.
No, I don't play, but I do pop in occasionally to chat with friends - when I find myself having to use those private chat windows just to avoid the constant flood of unnecessary **** spewing from Duke's cross-channel system messages....

I mean, hell - would it be so hard just to change the channel he speaks on? Make it WC, like the Temple of Abominations shouts. At least that way, he's not burying squad, faction, and whisper under dozens of lines of red spam nobody cares about.

This has been said so many times now. I'm sure Frankie has read it at least 15 times.

Frankie has never answered.

Frankie will never answer.

It's another case of PWE not caring about the playerbase at all.

Seriously, either just deal with it, or move on to something better.

Where's the option for "leave it, all the QQing makes me lawl"?

OH MY GOD AMEN!!!!!! thank god someone is acting on this thank you

Petition all you want, sure it'll get taken away next patch or whatever, but it'll be back again because they fail to test new patches on a test server thoroughly. We've already seen it happen once.

It's just a big circle of incompetence.
