Guild Wars 2

I just got spam filtered in WvW because I said “thank you” too many times in says chat. In between map chat, team chat, and other says like “Res please if possible” “thanks”. The spam filter is just too radical, it is seriously hindering communications because of extreme memory. If you said something like “thank you” too many times in the last hour that isn’t spamming, that is acknowledging people that help you.

Relax the filter a little, please, so communication in PvP areas of the game are not disrupted, event communications are not disrupted. Please.

Completely agree, if you’re not going to even put in the work to create a working LFG system, and are just making it difficult for players to find groups for dungeons, relax the spam filter so we can at least talk.

I could understand if the filter filtered out messages within say 5 or even 10 minutes of each other. All you’d need to do is change up what you said. But in WvW at least banging out a quick “thanks” lets me move quickly and not get smashed again.

I got spam filtered for linking a way point too many times. I have no idea how long needs to pass before the third message is appropriate. I do not think the filter needs to be that extreme, especially since gold spammers don’t seem to worry about it.

A LFG system is definitely needed to reduce the amount of spam map chat. Funny thing is that those who are on the map, the appropriate level, and would actually want to do the dungeon are already at the portal to it. There’s really no need to spam the map chat and you can just spam in the local vicinity instead.

I RP a singer. The chat message suppression warning is so limited that I cannot even sing a complete song because by the time I repeat a refrain 3-4 times, I have triggered it.

Another example: my singer is a 16 year old girl with ADHD…she can easily repeat the same sentence or question enough in a few minutes to trigger the warning.

Find a better way to stop spammers.
