Gil Spam is unbearable at this point

[KingXRay]

i really dont get it why people have to do such stupid things being spammer and selling game money for real money in P2P game, for every each account need to buy the game to play, if there are no stupid people try go to their site and giving them free account, one day the spammers will gone forever and will out of money to pay for the game

They don't buy the accounts they use to spam these messages, they use accounts that they have stolen so they have nothing to lose, when the account they are using gets closed down they just move onto another stolen account.

Anyway I don't blame the gold sellers, it's the idiots who buy the gold and pay for power levelling that are the ones who are to blame. Those people are the ones who are personally responsible for all the spam and headaches that are caused in all the games we play they are the ones who ruin the games for everyone else, and if it wasn't for them there would be no spam, so they are the ones who really need to be banned.

I was sent a Tell from a bot that I blacklisted. How's that for scary?

Just Blacklist them, it takes 5-10 seconds. If you want to do more, Contact support-> report cheat; there is a template there, it takes another 10-20 seconds to complete.

Also blame the elitist linkshells that are now selling hardmode content at up to 500,000g a run. For people that are in smaller or less progressed linkshells but are themselves up to doing this content it could be very tempting to buy the gil so they don't have to wait in queues for hours for a run. That a linkshell charges 500,000g a run is just pure greed. They know very few will actually have that amount just sitting there this early in the game.

Had the same thing happen yesterday on Diabolos.

Guess you didn't actually READ this thread? Most the people posting are on PS3 where it is not a simple, easy 5-10 second task. It is actually very time consuming and difficult to do on a PS3.

Its just a good thing that Im already invested in the game. If I was a new player logging in for the first time to this - I would just log off and uninstall it.

A not-really-a trick I was told about today to blacklist/report spammers on a PS3:

select, then arrow up to the first spammer name, hit x and pick "send tell". This fills in the chatbox /tell 'spammer name'. hit O and it keeps the /t 'spammer name' sitting in the chatbox, so you can look at it while you are typing your blist and report cheating.

do that for the next spammer until they are all done for that zone. It cut my time spent getting all the RMT blacklisted and reported in every zone down to a tenth of what it was.

One thing I did find out is that while you have your blacklist window open you will see all the spam shouts, even those people you have blacklisted - it's as if the blacklist only works when you aren't looking at it.
