    Spammers/Gil Sellers

    The game hasn't been out very long and they are already invading our game. We as players need better tools to help combat this growing threat.

    Reporting these gil sellers manually through the Support Desk is a drawn out affair and is very annoying.

    I propose to square that a system needs to be put in place that would easily allow us to report these dastardly creatures. This most awesome of features would include:
    1. Add an option to the chat name click menu to report as a spammer/gil seller.
    2. Automatically add reported gil seller to your /blist.
    3. Remove Gil sellers text from the chat window.
    4. Automatically ban a character and/or their account from even using the chat system if a certain amount of players have reported them for spamming until SE can investigate them.

    This issue is going to get a lot bigger in the coming months and we need the right tools to fight back.

    it would take less time out of playing by reporting this way then having to go through the support desk.

    I had only one when i was playing but they were very bad, clearly very aggressive..they used yellow text which blinded the chat, I reported them but agree we need an instant button or tool to get them OUT of the text, if we set a stern wall up for them now they wont keep trying. They have ruined many games. Now is the time to eliminate them completely.

    I just use the 'harassment' option in the support desk feature. I include the name of the player, the time, how they contacted me (/tell /shout yadda...) and also where I was.

    Agreed. One time name click ---> report/blacklist would be great.

    It takes a while to report them with the current system. Especially since those bastards deliberately set up names that are difficult to remember. Like Efgbhfg Fgbh or something similar. There are enough advertisements for any given thing in the real world-- must we deal with them in this one as well?

    Well until I am provided with a more convenient and effective way of reporting them, I will continue to do what I am.

    I find it ironic that the gold spammers can "play" the game, but I can't.
