/random filters (Can I have it?)

[Trumpy]

We can filter many things in the game. We can blist people as well.
Yet we cannot filter out /randoms or things like "So and so is paralyzed (interupted)."

It isn't as bad nowadays as it has been in the past, though there has seemed to be a somewhat resurgance on my server lately of Casino shouts. While i can filter the shouts and whatever related to them doing their business, the /random spam is really annoying when watching for shouts, checking things on the auction house (hmmm what was my last bid again? dang now i have to completely exit the AH to check. even worse with the 3 paragraphs of dialogue everytime you put soemthin up on AH.), or chatting in party or linkshell without the chat log fully opened. Or if afk for the evening and you want to read what was said while you were gone when you return and its all been spammed out of log by the same guy randoming 1000 times.

Could we at least not see the randoms if we have blisted them? I know its a minor thing but this has always bothered me. If i ever casinoed i would definately try to do it away from AH and such places (though i would most likely never do a casino).

surprised people have started up the casino mess again... didn't they issue an edict about 3 years ago that it was a bannable offense or something?

[Rewyen]

I thought that was why they intervened and set up the tables everywhere. I've noticed an uprising of /shouts for casinos on my server as well. And yes, I think if they can do a filter for the countdown for a logout, then a /random should be on there too.

999 game go !!!!

but yea /random filter is a decent idea

Supporting this - it might be a minor issue but yes it can be annoying. I too have seen the increase of casino shouts on Asura - although the shouts themselves don't bother me, if I see one I immediately blacklist the person shouting.

rather than random, I vote we get a filter for paralyze. That shit is faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar more annoying.

[Trumpy]

oh good i was expecting a nay sayer or two. there is always that one guy!

yes the paralyze thing has always annoyed as does the interupted messages and this item failed to work from just anyone around you. I believe we see them from the monsters as well whenever paralyze procs dont we?

[Saefinn]

I say nay!

I kid, it is annoying. Don't mind people doing it, but we can still have the option to ignore them doing it. :P

Greetings!

I let the dev. team know that you would like filters for /random and the pesky "_____ is paralyzed." text. They got back to me saying that they will look into adding a filter for the paralyze as well as a new category specifically for /random since checking "System Lv. 3" filters out other things, including /random.

Just to add to the "additional filters" items... I have three requests that I will list in order of most annoying to least annoying.

(1) Can we get a filter for the "equipment changed" messages? I generally switch 6+ pieces of gear a time and it's really annoying to (in the worst cases) switch 12 pieces of gear to use a 2-second ability, then switch another 12 pieces of gear to go back to my TP set... If the "equipment changed" messages are filtered about by the System Lv. 3 messages, I would not know as I believe it filters out other things that I would not want filtered out.

(2) Another thing that I would love to be able to filter out is the damage that other players' pets do. Unless I misunderstood the chat filters, it's impossible to show the damage that your own pet does without showing the damage that everyone's pet does. I tend to filter out damage for people not in my party or alliance, but I have never figured out how to filter out another player's pet, particularly when that player is not a part of my party or alliance.

(3) Would it be possible to set a filter to not show how much damage you are doing to a mob, or how much damage the mob is doing to you, but still receive messages related to whether your latest and greatest enfeeble was resisted? Unless I am misremembering, you will always get a message when your enfeeble lands (So-and-so casts Aisha: Ichi. Mob_name has been afflected by Attack down!), but if it is resisted, unless you decheck all the filters for damage taken by NPCs/missed attacks/attacks evaded, you will not see that message. The reason someone would want to leave those checked is because you don't want to see every single time the mob misses you or evades your attacks or whatnot. But without those messages, sometimes it's a pain to figure out whether your debuff actually landed.

Thank you for your time!
