/Yell & Rmt counter measure

Though that button is more convenient (and much more prone to accidental clicking)...

There is something in XI AND XIV called the help desk. Where you can do the same thing.

Pretty sure you have to confirm your report.. XD

I suppose it depends on how often there is someone to report.. if ARR is popular it should be a right click because help desk is just too far away for my fingers.. :P

1 or 2 Full time GMs would eliminate most RMT/Bot issues completely. auto reporting is always abused in every game its in and is eventually disabled server side due to this abuse.

Well the way I seen it work on wow when you right click someones name it has a list of options, whisper, invite, target, ignore, report player for, if you click report player it pops up with a dialog box asking for some details and you have to confirm it.

Suspend people for 3 days that abuse it. Make it clear to everyone that you can't abuse report and list things that qualify as a reportable offense.

that would create more work than necessary.

Why? No it wouldn't. Just have a little box that pops up before you send your report saying that you'll be suspended if you abuse report. No one would abuse it then.

There should be some key words that will flag GMs to check you out and see if your RMT.

Gil.Money,$,Cash,Sell,Buy, URL links,

Yes SE has that exact system set. its been in place since 08 on FFXI... XIV has the same system...

Is called "Service Business" for some reasons if you want to know... Is necessary. and suggested by IloveYouPumpkin, abusing will get the abuser in trouble only.

See ArenaNet's GW2, in a week those 40+ bots got banned, getting less spammy and less botty :|

So yea, is a necessary and effective way to report.

Global channels are useful for many things, including having a proactive party/LS/FC/trade search, instead of passive systems like content finder, party finder, and MW/AH. If you don't see the use for global channels, I don't know what to tell you.

They're also completely optional, so if you really think they're spammy, you don't have to use them.

My problem with chats like this is I don't want to filter them out because I want to be able to look for the useful messages, but I don't want to spammed with the useless blather that starts to happen.

I spent plenty of nights in uldah watching for dungeon runs/xp pts/quests shouts/mission shouts/etc. only to have my chat log filled with the retarded shout conversations people like to take part in because they find it humorous.

Was the chat itself funny? sure. The fact that it was happening over the shout chat? not so much.

i would love a straight out server wide shout. makes it easier to get things together. i hate when you need to sit in town to get a party or make one. don't see why they gotta make it map/zone only anyway.

I personally would hate this. only reason is sometimes the chat bar gets loaded enough with LS, /talk regular party shouts. I can see the benefits to this like when there is a RATE going on or something like atomos, but in all honestly i wouldn't want more in my chat bar than i already have, and plus people's just shouting for stupid things over the whole server or over several zones would annoy. :/
