    All I was trying to illustrate is that the abuse of the chat spamming make people reach a point where they simply ignore the chat box and miss out on opportunities to help others and/or exchange about the game... (mind you there is less spamming in forest haven but the exchanges I have seen over there scare me.)

    I usually type 'spam spam spam spam' and it seems to quiet them down for a bit. I don't quite understand why they do it. After their first message scrolls off the chat window, typing again makes sense. But just over and over again? idk, mystifies me.

    Default thoughts on spammers

    I agree that the true spammers, sending the same message 5+ times in a row, 20-30x per min are beyond annoying and abusive. We probably SHOULD report them, but I usually ignore.

    When they are particularly obnoxious, I will counter-post "IGNORE = Name" a couple times.

    Also, it would make sense to have a barter-town area JUST for trading, or in balefort, make it so that posts made in the trading room stay in the trading room only (probably harder for the devs.) Heck, in a barter-town setup, I would even suggest enabling a "repeat" button for messages, that would auto repeat every 10-15 seconds.

    (After all, the reason for all the hawking is that the current consignment store isn't adequately meeting the community's needs. Slots are far too expensive. 1P/slot, and 3P for five would also move a lot of this into the store.)

    (note: regardless, 5 posts in one sec should STILL be reportable, and we can only blame ourselves if we don't.)

    , shop is too expensive slotwise, AND we only rly have 1 town to hang out, we need a town for lvl 50s only with no spamming allowed. Then everyone would be happy
