WHMs spamming Holy at MBs / Cities / crafters

[Ultear_Milkovich]

such as:

-**********Having 6 WHMs spamming Holy during 5 minutes at Limsa’s Market Board.

-**********Having a WHM consistently staying on your character when you are crafting just to spam Holy.

Never seen these guys doing this in Gold Saucer yet BUT I LOOK FORWARD TO IT ("You really want to focus on your TT match? Well ok lets have another H O L Y mate")

Would it be better to spam those spells in dungeons?

Are they doing this only to cause useless noise during casual activities, or maybe for the lag, or only to disturb the gaming exp.?

Of course it is always possible to turn of the sound effects, to turn off the other players effects, etc, but it is also possible for players not to be ass**.

I would like SE to remove the ability to use Holy inside of cities. The community ESPECIALLY ON MOOGLE seems not mature enough to quit doing that. There are a couple of “Holy Events” in some LS that aims at bringing 15/20 players at a same time/place...

I call these people Lookie McLookatmes. I imagine they're 12-year-old boys desperate for attention. I just head off to my house to do my crafting and market board stuffs rather than let it bug me.

Turn off other player effects and sounds if it really bugs you. Both are in the options somewhere (been a long time since I set them to where I want them, sorry)

Se don't need to do anything since you already have the power to do something

[Cutie_McSnuggles]

A) You admit that you can already do something about it yourself, turn off the animations.

B) If someone is specifically spamming you while you're crafting, that's harassment, you can report it.

So... why does SE need to change anything?

I turned player effects off for people not in my party a while ago cause it helps with FATE and Hunts lag too. Ring of Thorns is another great spam-ey noise spell, although not as much at causing epilepsy @_@

Because it is an annoyance having to tone down the game experience to avoid these stupid players. To me this disrupts gameplay.

This, exactly ^

[Sove92]

Same thing with DRG's Ring of Thorns. Just because you can turn down the noise and effect doesn't mean you get a free pass to do so. /random spam is similarly considered spamming, even though you can filter it out.

I'd just report them, there is no legitimate reason to spam them around popular NPCs, cities and market areas.

[Dererk]

They do it all over just to lag people out.

We cant remove every single little thing in this game because of a handful of idiots.

People can use almost anything to abuse/annoy people, report and move on and in the ocassions where u can do something about it yourself then please do so.

If they really were spamming it for 5 min straight there would be more then enough log info for SE to see and warn them about it.
