Bots/Spamming...

Well,

I hope with this down time they add a right click to chat box to report/block gil spammers.. Seriously, its enough at times to make me wanna log off, sometimes it feels like im playing a f2p mmo.

Not good & it should be priority for them to sort it. Having to spend 5mins when zoning to just add them to blocklist is not my idea of fun! why on earth they didn't add a right click function i dont know! ..may as well hold a big LED sign up saying "Spammers This Way" :(

In a recent interview they mentioned how they were continually updating the chat filters to prevent gil spammers, as well as rapidly perma banning those that players reported. Report them, blacklist them, forget them. There seem to be less getting through the filters everyday, so I think they're making progress.

Last night on the Odin server for the first time i didn't get any gil seller tells ... Maybe there is some progress ....

on Lamia i can in giridina i can see something pop up in my chat box for like 0.5 sec before its drowned out .....

On Leviathan, whether I was in any of the starting cities, I didn't get any shouts for tells from gil sellers. It was amazing.

On Zalera, since starting the game last week, I have seen a steady decline in spammers.

Same here from Levi.

question about these annoying spammers, do they have to buy new subscription again after they got banned?

Either that or hack a new account.

They are using accounts that they have stolen the credentials from unsuspecting gil buyers. They basically have an endless stream of accounts to log in with.

/blist gets you to the black list.
If you mean a right click report spam/RTM function then chances are they didn't do that due to the extra work caused by accidental reports, which would slow down things considerably.
