    No offence, but are there any GMs around? This thing needs control, really because:

    - It irritates those in archosaur, messages get spammed away quickly, totally cant communicate under Normal Chat

    - Adversely affect my catshop's business

    - Those who want to find squad for their respective quests without using teles becomes impossible.

    This terribly affects the gamers gameplay. I know GMs dont care about players. So here's some real reason why you must stop them:

    - These people are creating lots of fake accounts just for this spam, overloading your server, making your job harder.

    - If those websites were truly selling cheaper gold, then it means your company will have a harder time selling the more expensive gold. Your sales revenue will drop, hence your profit.

    - If more people file complaints, then you got to spend more time sorting them out. If not, your players will be unhappy, no customer satisfaction, hence ur sales revenue will drop.

    @Twn:

    There has been people complaining since 2 years ago, yet they don't care, they have not cared and they will never care, its like that. Just BL the current bot i guess.

    Apparently, a lot of people are idiots.

    Aside that however, the spam is pretty annoying....

    On HT they are spamming around West Arch. I block them as soon as it comes on, but they get around that by changing names frequently.

    So they must have lined up a bunch of alts specifically to do this.

    Also, I'm pretty sure that GMs only work regular hours so the likelihood anyone with authority is around in the early morning/late night is zero.

    The things that boggles my mind is why the do it? Is anyone really that stupid to risk that scam?

    They are not all fake accounts, some are people who went to the site to get gold and ended up as '****' eg, they gave away their user name and password to the site and became new spammers.

    Just wanted to add that I just logged in and now I want to reach out and stab the morons responsible for the 2 bots alternating in west district right now and the GMs that choose to ignore it. Using one wasn't annoying enough because of the cooldown for repeating yourself, so they have two to ensure that our chat windows are filled with nothing except their messages. Same company that has already been mentioned in this thread.

    We can blacklist these characters to make it stop for a little while, but it doesn't fix the fact that they will be back later with different ones.

    Hello? Do GMs even exist?

    It couldn't last. Everyone was just killing time. But if all they did was kill time, time would end up killing them.

    Assuming what you say are true, and lots of people are blacklisting these spammers, that would be pretty sad for those **** accounts. This means even if (not that it ever will) they are restored, they remained blocked to a lot of people.

    And btw... DO GM CARE OR NOT? Your customers were being ****, you are losing potential profits!! PROFITS!! Revenue - Expenses... We all know you dont care about the players, but we're here to save your company...

    I saw gold spamming bots on arch.. but its difficult to believe players are stupid enough to go there, 22 usd for 10m... if they are stupid enough to even consider it, perhaps they got what they deserved.

    Well you know the only reason the spamming is continuing is that a few stupid people are falling for the scam. If there was no profit in it, it would stop.

    Frankly, those people probably deserve to stay blacklisted. I really would not want to invite a person that dumb to a BH squad.

    Also, all those QQ threads about people having their accounts **** or banned. I bet a large proportion of those people were people that went to these scam sites but refuse to admit it.

    And then I went into squad chat, turned normal and world chat off, and continued on my business as usual.

    Gonna be a ***** to try to find parties for my BH now though since I can't use world chat...

    Another wave of spammers b:infuriated I feel sorry for the people that had their accounts **** and are being used like this, but honestly they probably got **** after trying to use that gold seller's website so it's kind of their own fault.
