Shout chat needs to be dealt with ASAP

Seeing as you can’t deal with the influx of bots despite all the absurdly aggressive (to normal players, that is) limitations you have in trading, pricing and the marketplace, you need to at least deal with the Shout Chat.

Simply put, it’s making the game unbearable if you don’t go over there and block every different goldspammer that pops up every 2 minutes. Not having the chat highlighted does not help, and nor does disabling shouts on top - our client is still being bombarded with messages with these options, we just can’t see them.

If you can’t figure out limitations to the Shout Chat it should be disabled entirely until you do.

UPDATE: Shouts are now capped to 150char. Though honestly this alone doesn’t do much - they can still spam multiple shouts back to back.

There needs to be a cooldown + level requirement to use shouts.

They should block entire shouts that contain “Website.com” type messages where the Website is in a list of known gold seller sites and only blocking those sites from being broadcasted (blocking by person is tedious and won’t work with the bulk of accounts they have). as for if you block the mention of their site they will have to spend more money to rename their website. then you just add that new site to the list of banned text.

i think it’s a better solution than trying go individual person by person.

only issue is that they may find a work around even for that. ive seen plenty of spams that would usually be blocked by such parameters, but all they do is spam WWW DOT SOME SITE DOT COM. It sucks that they are so clever. Wish they had respect for the quality of the game. They have a business they are trying to run, illegitimate as it is. They are just ruining their own business by screwing the game.

Honestly i was trying to avoid going down on this in my post but… seriously, what sort of coding is this that someone spamming the chat makes you freeze for 5s+ (OR AT ALL)? Is this real life?

This game still seems as poorly optimized as it was back in cbt and that’s honestly worrisome.

Should be a level requirement level usage on the microphones eg. lv50, that way they won’t be able to delete and recreate without some effort.
