Just wanted to say thanks for the hard work the zenimax team has been working! I haven't seen any gold seller chat spam last few days and today was the first day I didn't have any in-game mail wanting me to buy gold.
My wife and I have are enjoying the game even the little bugs and things are no big deal. We are very happy this isn't another GW2, WOW clone with auction houses arenas and F2P type of junk. Game reminds me more of the old Asheron's Call and DAOC days good job and Thanks again!

    Good to see a positive comment. Oddly enough, haven't seen much today myself. I'm sure they will slowly weed out the bots as well. I know I report each and every single one I come across.
    At least, I can say i'm doing my part in-game unlike many who don't bother reporting them and then come to the forums to complain.

    I also saw a serious reduction (to zero tonight) of gold spammers. A BIG thanks to the dev's. Keep up the good work and kill the bots next.

    BTW, would it be possible to just have some roaming staff that logs into dungeons and bans any bots they find? Seems to be a easy way to reduce the issue while the dev's work on a real solution.

    LOL obvious ZOS staff post is obvious.

    Thanks for what exactly?
    An extended beta test?
    Keeping game breaking and progress blocking bugs in game since beta?
    Leaving class abilities and passives broken form beta?

    If only this was a gw2 clone, it'd have 110% less bugs and working classes that's for sure.

    Cuddos to the OP!

    I totally agree with Valco. Asheron's Call was my first MMO and this game gives me that same feeling of freedom. I haven't seen any gold spammers recently either and the emails from them have stopped, the developers do a great job and I say thanks to them too! I played WoW until I was so bored with it I couldn't play anymore, and the auction house got so expensive I couldn't buy anything on it anyway. I've been waiting for a good quality game like this - it's definitely worth the time and money.

    And this is a quote/post from somebody that is bitter about their life it seems! Get off the band wagon it's not working for you!

    I'm glad to see the hard work they are doing, it's unfortunate some people just don't realize the millions of lines of code they have to work through to fix issues.

    Just not sure what some expected for a launch. (trolls please don't reply to this part lol. Heard it all already)

    What are you talking about? Reduction of gold sellers for the past few days?

    Dude, I have alt characters in all alliances and each time I log in, the first thing that spams the chats are always gold sellers spamming the heck out of the chat.

    I would've 'ignore' them but my ignore list is full from blocking spammers on my main. And just a few hours ago while transferring stuff between my characters in bank, there I see more gold spams.

    Problem has not been solved. Especially for the beginning zones.

    Heya Big_Bob :) something you might be interested in.

    This addon does not fill up your in game ignore list is works on an internal level

    LOL! Asheron's Call was my first MMO too. I still get chills thinking about sliding down that chute when porting. Such good memories of that game.

    ESO, I think is doing fine. They have been attacked viciously and I think they are responding in kind. Outside a few quest bugs, (annoying I know), this game has been a blast to play and I think it's extremely well done. Just my 2 cents and I'm no fanboi.

    Carry on!

    I guess level your ALTs a little quicker or something! I've played since beta/early release and only had gold spam chat a few times only used my ignore button once. As for the in-game mail had 4 or so but as of tonight there wasn't even one.
    I just got done with Greenshade and now I'm in Malabal Tor and nothing, nada, zero, zilch. Maybe Zenimax just likes some us better I dunno.

    How about a product that was ready for launch instead of this mess that many are willing to bend over and accept.
    They've adressed nothing in terms of broken class abilities or passives, the botting the spamming.

    Regarding bugs, I've only encountered a few and they were all fixed by logging back in so for me this has been a good launch.

    It's nice to play a game where the Dev's are actually working to make things better. WoW got so frustrating with the classes getting nerfed all the time.

    Excuse me but that is not the point. I use my alts only to store items and have no intention of leveling them.

    My point is, the gold seller issue hasn't been resolved. I know that as you progress through zones the amount of gold spams are reduced to nil but that doesn't change the fact that THERE ARE still gold sellers early on in the game that needs to but hasn't been dealt with. I've also played in the early betas and early access but gold sellers werent as prominent as they are now.

    I don't see any real resolve when it comes to getting rid of these gold sellers and it's just ignorant to say "level up your character to see less gold sellers" when the issue is still present.

    This is sounding more like a broken record or just a post to be cool like the other doomsday people on here against ESO. Still can't figure out why they keep playing and don't leave.

    Hey I truly understand what you are saying all I'm asking is that you don't give into the darkside with all the other negative people on these forums. Ignorance is poking at a wound hoping it will heal but somebody like you that keeps poking at issues/wounds are just making things fester up and infecting something that will heal.

    I dont get mails from them anymore =) So I think OP is very correct. Why do all posts here have to be about how much we dislike everything? Sure this game has some problems. But I tried to play Diablo 3 at launch. Compared to that this is a very good launch! alot of maintance i know. but it isnt bad that they fix alot of stuff fast. I can live with the downtime. Its rly not as bad as ppl make it to be.

    Gold spammers still seem to dominate the chats in the lower level areas, but I seem to have stopped getting mail from them... Of course, I reported every single one that I got mail from, while I usually just don't pay attention to the spam in the chat windows. If most people have been doing the same thing, maybe the spammers (most of them seem to be spamming for the same website) have just decided that sending in-game email isn't worth it, as fewer people see it and the account will get reported and banned faster.

    I can honestly say I have never played an mmo where the company has listened so well to what is being said and actually done something about it... ok maybe some listen but rarely do you see the kind of changes Zos had made to appease their customers. I love the interaction of this companies employees :) to me that is one of the biggest things that makes a good game. On that note please don't make it a faceroll lol.

    Plenty of gold sales in Stonefalls. Not so much elsewhere. In fact, most of the ads are unreadable due to the sheer amount of symbols theyre using to get around the spamfilter addon.

    Hey, Zeni? Can you do something about ignore? Im out of space and I dont know whos been banned thats safe to remove.
