But I do not like it, spam is spam.
To those who want specific channels for things like trade and guild stuff:
Really? Did no one learn from other games? People will just use the zone chat to reach more people. Why differentiate? Honestly, I love one channel for all chatter. Except when they will construct the trade chat to be server wide...a channel I would never join though
It is all good like it is and people doing guild spam like the op shall be blocked.

I decided to see if he failed his attempt and was spam clicking the chest to attempt to unlock it if he failed. I got logged out with the same message as you, exceeded message limit ie spamming. So just be aware you can say nothing in chat and still be logged off for spamming.
P.S. When I logged back on the guy that got to the chest first was gone but the chest was there unlocked, opened it to find all the loot still inside.

What was the message you were "spamming"? Depending on the content and the wording it might have accidently got caught up in their gold spam filter.
Has anyone else had this?
I got booted out of ESO tonight for recruiting for my new trading guild, apparently as it was spamming.
Considering I only post the message a few times, go do something, post a bit later, I get kicked out, yet gold sellers can spam the crap every few seconds and nothing happens? WTF.
How are we supposed to get new members when there is no Trade/Guild channel to advertise in?

When you say you were "kicked" do you mean you were disconnected, and an error appeared saying you exceeded the message limit and encouraging you not to spam?
If so i think that is a bug, i have been disconnected like that several times, and most of then i had no even used the chat box.
I can't remember the error code now but maybe if its really a bug support can help.
Or maybe the GMs are just kicking people randomly
It sounds like Zenimax, who is forcing its player base to build large guilds with a "do or die" attitude (ESO has no auction house and only guilds of 50+ can sell publicly, so building big guilds is the only way to sell to anyone without, alas, having to put tons of apparently banhammer-inducing spam in the chat constantly, lol) needs to make some changes to its chat system if nothing else.
There needs to be a /trade channel, there needs to be a /guild recruit channel, and there needs to be a way to permanently disable said channels for those who don't want to see them.
Spam problem resolved. Of course, no one will have all those spam channels enabled for long, but it wouldn't matter if there was an in-game auction house; the spam wouldn't be there in nearly the flood it is now if there was.
I despise zone spamming, but I can't help but sympathize with you. ESO kinda forced you to do it this way. I agree with your post.Has anyone else had this?

It isn't quite that widespread. The Community Rules use the example of a post that just says "Bump!" or something similar. Adding a post with more details of the guild, new member count, or even another member posting with a "I love these folks!" post is not likely to be considered a bump.
