Gold scammers

I logged on today, and the first thing I see is a gold scammer on WC.

The same one I flagged two weeks ago. And the week before that.

Seriously, this game is becoming more and more lame.

1) OTHER PWE games have options to report in-game mail as spam
2) Other PWE games add the scam websites to the swear filter, forcing spammers to use almost unintelligible messages to get around said swear filters. Why Can't PWE add the scam website's domain name to the swear filter?
3) Other PWE games have active staff members. Is PWI no longer considered a priority by PWE? Granted, some of PWE's games have in-house devs, unlike PWI, where the devs are in China, but they get better support (which, honestly, still isn't saying very much).

I'm honestly tired of all of the **** in PWI. There are better games out there. Seriously, why can't a human being spend 3 seconds to ban the gold spammers, or do SOMETHING about this?

Also, I got my 'infraction point' via PM. I don't really give a ****. This forum has been more or less unmoderated for as long as I can remember. In the time it took to send said point to me, you could have actually done something to benefit the community, instead of waste your time. Seriously.

    b:lipcurl I Hear ya there, Sarrafeline ^^

    {HT~servers} has gotten so freaking many 'Carry Phisher >b:fatb< SPAM Bots' on WC now, that you'd think we were still in the Old DUKE BLACK (Halloween Debacle) from a few years back... b:faint

    I mean how hard can it be to get the supposedly >Expanded - Customers sevice "Ticket techs" to actually do their jobs /Or at the Very Least/ Get the remaining GMs online for more then the apparent few minutes that they seem to actually be actively on...<



    b:surrender>>Seriously Sparkie, could you please get a Gm to stay on (each of the servers) for atleast an hour & a half (non-stop) just so they can monitor the "WC-window" while they do their rounds on that server with their ticket meetings and etc.?? I mean the "Phisher bots Chatters" are basically repeating their **** atleast once every half hour or so, its not like its that hard to notice them there, so it'd be easy enough for your remaining GMs to put some smack down on them with the Ban Hammer>>>>b:surrender

    Already have Black listed around 5 of the Phishers alts that they have spamming WC (And considering the amount of characters I've got, thats alot of Blacklisting) but sadly they're still there afterwards and are still annoying everyone else who're just sitting there and are hoping that the GMs will actually show up and do their jobs for once...b:surrenderb:thanks

    PWE management quality have been dropping drastically.

    I liked when Frankie was here, so bad he's gone.

    In April 1st 2011 we had an Epic unforgettable April's fool event, where chimeis took all over archosaur, servers went down for 10 minutes~ and on patcher we could see a fake update regarding "Chimeis took over archosaur", with even faked patch notes and news.

    That Aprils fool rocked.

    In 2014 we have what? A lot of problems with Arc, that's worse April's fools ever. b:angry

    Seriously, PWE management quality is each day worse.

    I have been seen Chat Bots spamming Dreamweaver ALL day long, ALL WEEK long, their teles have a number in the front and we see like "<WHATEVERSPAM THEY DO> _____ 1046", so they've been spamming over 1000 messages.

    New PWE team sucks.

    ok seriously, every gamer knows that IP blocks just stop the spammers/scammers that are new to scamming/spamming. all a person has to do is get a VPN and bam, no ip. I prefer to hide my stuff because i believe in privacy. sadly though wanting privacy is usualy a red flag for gaming companies that you are doing something wrong when in fact 99% of us that keep our info hidden ( and trust me i do a good job) have not been doing anything wrong. these gold spammers will continue to find ways around it, every game has them, just most gaming companies want to keep their clients happy so they shut them down with in minute-hours or even in a slow case 24 hours, but never do they let the same person spam for a week straight, so i can safely say that PWI cares little for the clients, as long as they make the money they don't vare. 10$ says the person spamming wc for fake gold sites actualy spent rl money on the game so that way they wouldn't get banned, lol it's the only way pwi won't ban an account. free to play ( but beware reaching endgame and having millions without spending rl will get you banned) but pay to play(and keep your account/break every rule with no punishment).
