    Yea they are quite possible the most annoying thing about the game.....and you cant stop them...also they have started this new trend of whispering you while your off minding your own business which i hate

    not to mention the muliple (like 300)level 1 death advertisements in front of the AH in org, first time i seen it it was hilarious, but its just annoying to see it every single time you set foot in orgrimmar, am guessing the alliance have a similar one?

    Yea we do, in SW and IF mainly. Load of balls, there are things blizzard can do about this, but don't. One of them would be to disable speach for people lower than level 10 unless you have that person on your friends list. It takes about an hour for somebody to get to level 10. That would cut it out I would think...

    yup i use spam me not addon, no one under lvl 80 can whisper me unless their on my friends list or in guild. Great for when your runnning through stormwind bowflexing yo gearz and all the nabs are asking for:

    "OMGZ YEW HAZ EPIXXX, CAN I HAS BEWST !"

    It also blocks out all the trade/lfg/local and /yell spam too and auto reports them too. But i think any of these addons do the same thing really.

    Been getting a lot of these recently, so started to screw with them:

    -asked the first was the gold farmed organically and is the packaging recycleable

    -asked another was the gold "chocolate gold"....unfortunately it wasnt :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 263 ✭✭Magaa

    Spam and gold selling can be so easily but I think blizzard don't want to stop it because it keeps players interested... How hard is it to make it so level 1s can't message you, or to stop players getting huge amounts of money from level 1s...?

    What about the players who whisper can I have 30 gold please... i find that very annoying

    I don't know about other realms,
    but on azuremyst the gold spammers have started to get a bit more intelligent. Last night I noticed they have started to level up to level 2 and start whispering people to beat the add-on's which block level 1 whisper's

    That's not very intelligent. Just click on your spam blocker and put it up to lvl's 2. Anyone who went to the trouble of installing them will surly set it to the new required lvl.

    One funny thing happened to me last night. A lvl one was spaming items he wanted to sell. I wanted to buy one of them so whispered him and stood beside him. After about 1min of waiting he logged off. Only then i remembered about my spam blocker (it stops whispers). Oh well my loss.

    i like them ive come friendly with one which when hes bored in china and has nothing else to do starts chatting to me about whats going on and asking about music that he might like

    he says he is a girl but we all know they dont exist on the net . its funny when hes powerleveling charactors tho . because for 50 % of the time hes not actually leveling hes just trying to get adverts out .

    he says he dosnt hack peoples accounts as it causes to much trouble and is to easily traced but you just cant trust em.
