Ah, they were in-game mails. I'll submit in-game per your instruction.

I am wondering this myself. I have not received any of these, yet, but is it still a possibility that I have to watch for? Are these just old or delayed messages from people who do not visit the forums as frequently?0 -

Half the time you can't even report them in-game! I've pressed F1 to 'report player' numerous times only to sit there for 5 minutes waiting for it to load, gave up and left it at ignore. Spoke to other people in the guild (500 members) and they have experienced the same!1 -
Jiigen✭✭✭I might be a little late, but these two sent me PMs with gold spam on April the 29th:

Could well have been an old one but it came as a notification not a PM.

Gold Seller spam from "***". They need to get the hint they aren't welcome here. But the more people actually use these sites the more reason these gold sellers have to keep coming back to annoy us legit players.
The profile says he's banned already and was invited by "ZOS_AlanG". I'm also aware that nobody in the staff team do invites like that so how he got his profile to show he was invited by a staff member is beyond me.Participant in the Sanguine's Tester beta group since November 2013.0 -

Accounts created during beta generally do not have the "invited by" field on their profile, and we carried over active beta accounts to the live forums.The profile says he's banned already and was invited by "ZOS_AlanG". I'm also aware that nobody in the staff team do invites like that so how he got his profile to show he was invited by a staff member is beyond me.
Since Early Access, however, we've been using a different invitation system, so those who were added during or after that time will show up as having been "invited" by a specific administrator.Forum Rules | Promoting Constructive Discussion | Code of Conduct | Terms of Service | Help Site
