lets make a petition in change.org to pass a law about goldselling & cheating in MMO is a crime... :B
(im jus desperate to find a solution xD)

If this follows SOP for these games, blacklisting will not help as they spam, then delete and remake, then spam some more. Your blacklist will end up being a list of non-existent characters. Always, always, always report them so the developers can get to the bottom of the issue.
I think SE announced something to this regard. Myself my blacklist has probably about 30 or more names already
Some have implemented it just fine. Turbine has virtually eliminated it from LOTRO and DDO. They've got a number of rules to discourage it, but the main thing is that they make it easy for players to report and they have GMs who stay on top of those reports.
Square Enix has it even easier, because this is a subscription based game. Gilsellers have to make enough profit from each subscription to pay for that subscription. They couldn't do that if the subscription got banned five minutes after their first ad message was broadcast because a dozen players instantly reported it. If you keep their profits below the cost of setting up a subscription, then they won't do it. (That doesn't completely take care of the gilselling itself. They'll simply advertise it elsewhere. But at least their ads won't take over our in-game chat box.)
Agreed. I was surprised to find those weren't there. Report & Blacklist a spammer is (unfortunately) the most common thing I'm going to want to do based on a chat message. But rather than doing it at the chat window itself, where the spam shows up, we have to bring up another window (which automatically minimizes the chat window, so if the message is long we can't even see their name anymore). There we have to fill out a form in which we need to spell out their name correctly (often, as mentioned, without even seeing it, and many of these names are long jumbles of random letters). It's a hassle to try to even just blacklist the spammers, let alone report them as well, but we have to keep up with it or the chat window becomes useless. This should be a simple click their name then click "report spam".
Really, this is funniest thing ever someone criticizing grammar and legibility and doesn't even capitalize and punctuate correctly. Thanks I needed a good laugh today.
As to OP wish they would add, like most other games do, a auto blacklist/report function that takes two seconds. Instead of the stupid amount of time to blacklist then have to file a report for each one.
Every other game does it why can't they?

in 11 there was shouts. and sure ppl pmed but it was no where near as bad as in 14 x.x and yes they have add friend/pm/add party but no add blacklist which makes it hard to keep Blacklisting ppl when they keep remaking chars all day long
someone also said just blacklist and report them......... on my server every town has give or take 5-6ppl in each zone of the city shoutting so that every zone/cornor has the msg`s spamming theres even ppl standing outside town shoutting in the starting lvling area then not only that but i get 2-3pms every 5 mins from them so no matter where i go unless i completly mute chat i cant get away from them
to Krazarian yes they need something liek the friend list and sorry gramer english isnt my strongest
