    Lightbulb Gold Spambots Ban

    Here's an idea:

    Most of these gold bot scammers, that advertise free gold for real money, are in the lowest towns, they just park there and shout chat in the towns. All of them are level 1. What if STS didn't allow public shouting until level 2-5? It'd be nice to have a captcha or hoop for level 1's to go through to prove they're not a spambot sent to annoy Arlor with their evil scam trickery, leveling up might be the easiest way to do that.

    That prevents these hundred's of bots from just parking and shouting.

    True, that's the idea not to make it so easy for them. It's not a solution just an obstacle.

    hmmm would be good to mute ppl who repeat the same sentence 5 times in a row over 10 seconds, will solve annoying trader problems too
