Gold Sellers

[Nimue]

This problem is growing. There is no anti spam put in place on the chat so gil sellers just spam in all capital cities! If I want to have a conversation with someone in those cities I must blacklist these sellers first. Everyone may say .. ohh just blacklist them and then report them, well this is not just every 20 minutes or 1 time an hour. Your are suggesting that on my hard earned time off, to be in game playing a game I want to play and I should work to keep these gold sellers out of my chat. This is absurd. Chat needs to be fixed! This is not the first mmo that has gold sellers, take from them and fix this problem! ~Make it easy to report and block, make it harder to spam, make certain chat level restricted. This is by far the most non evolved chat system I have ever seen. I think my 19 month old could write the code that made ffxiv chat system.

This is really my only problem with this game but its a big problem, also, think of the ps3 players, they really have to work to blacklist these players, and if they don't have a keyboard and then type something in that gets pushed out by gold spam this is just so absurd its unbelievable.

Please fix the chat and ability to block and report.

Level restriction on shouts is a great idea!!! how about a timer on how often you can shout?

Yes this also is one of the most basic of spam blocking procedures that has been in use since at least 18 years ago which they have decided against implementing because they know better.

except it won't work on people who got their account hacked.

Will it eliminate the problem? No. Will it cut the problem way back? Yes.

Like in other games like WoW and i think Rift, you have to be a certain level like level 10 to even utilize the shout feature. Or like in FFXI with the chat filters i think there was one for possible spam to be blocked, cant remember havent played in about 8 months.

ive exceeded my blacklist limit, so now i just /busy when i play and that blocks every tell i get. so i can somewhat enjoy the game without getting spammed from RMTer's

some games have lvl restriction until lvl 20 or somthing until you can shout and yell and stuff its definitly not a bad idea
