Okay.. it's gotten so out of hand even the spamfilters people made are not keeping up with the stream of GOLD SELLERS. I've logged over 40 reports and about done as I'm seeing the SAME Account names still alive a couple days later. Clearly ZOS approach needs some help on speed.

Can ZOS please implement a FULL TIME person just to watch chat and INSTANT BAN people? I mean really... this makes the zone almost impossible to read now and very distracting.

    There's a simple fix to this. Just make it so that characters cannot talk in chat or send mails or whispers until lvl5. That way, every time a gold spammer was banned, it would take quite a while until he is replaced. It 'a pretty discouraging to see that Zenimax seems to have given the perennial issue of gold spammers ruining an MMO absolutely no consideration whatsoever.

    They should put one gm in every starting zone just to ban the gold sellers. That would help alot already.

    I've ignored and reported every spammer I've seen and now my ignore list is full.

    I have now disabled zone chat.

    This is really sad!

    There is a limit, not sure what it is, but eventually you will have it full and have to remove them.
    And the removal process is slow as well, since you cant just spam the X button.
    We're born, we live, we die. And along the way, you do the best with whatever crap you step in :p

    Motivation alone is not enough. If i had an idiot with me and i motivated him, then i will have a motivated idiot to do stuff :s

    Hmm that sucks!

    While I'm truely enjoying this game at present (it is new afterall).. I'm finding day by day more and more things that make me more likely to switch off sadly!

    I pre-authorised my sub for 6 months, I think I might scale that back to a month for the time being, see how ZOS deal with things!

    Yes.. I went with the month by month sub as well for now. Missing bank slots and gold spam is just a tad overbearing to be "FUN". They need to take a lot more immediate action on these spammers. It's ruining the game for a lot of people. Can't even read plea's for help for people between all the spam.
