People are bypassing the character limit in the term filter...

This is a 14 character term (15 with the space I removed), and yet it says its has 42 characters, so they keep spamming /shout avoiding the filter.
Would be nice to have this fixed, and allow us to use space in the term filter.



And to you scum that do this, no one cares about your venue or your boring gpose pictures, go touch grass, perhaps practice photography in the real world to be worth something, you are not a real photographer and your gpose pictures are terrible.

I'll never understand why people are bothered by shout ads and are incapable of tuning them out. I can't tell you the content of a single shout ad since my brain just makes them a void when I see it.

Hell, I barely see shout in general, since even big city shout chats are usually just pointless crap.

It's been my experience that few internet users have the capacity for this skill. But it is such a valuable one to cultivate. Eyes just glazing over without even parsing anything on that personal mental ignore list..

Anyway, on the actual term filter, why would anyone bother trying to filter an entire section like that? Just.. filter half of it and it accomplishes the same thing.

That's arbitrary, how's your opinion or lack of understanding relevant to my bug report? its not up to you to decide or understand.

The filter is a feature in the game, and people are finding creative and buggy ways to bypass it. I'm reporting an issue, that's it.

Some people have the brain capacity of a pigeon and need to tell everyone about it

Same tbh. I don't even notice these venue ads in shout chat. And honestly I don't have any issue with people who do RP events trying to get the word out. People put in a lot of time and effort into a lot of these places. Personally I'm far more annoyed by a single venue taking up too many PF slots in the "Other" tab with ads, because that does start to feel like spam.

Shout chat in a populated city zone goes by so fast I don't even notice or care when people use it.

Agreed. I mean, it's Final Fantasy XIV. Why would you even play this game if you don't want to go to venues? I'd get if this was WoW and you wanted to turn off services chat. But guess what? It's FFXIV. Removing venues is like removing 90% of why we play this game in the first place. And some of us actually like seeing these ads. We need to know which clubs DJ Limit Break is showing up in. If you don't want venue "spam", just go back to WoW at this point. No one cares and no one's going to listen to your whining.

Yeah, this pretty much. After a while, I just don't see them anymore unless I'm purposely looking. And even then, they only ever show up in the three cities.
