Guild Wars 2

Do something. This gets annoying as kitten. Restrict new account pms to 1 every 10 minutes or something.

Block and report -best thing you can do. May not be a new account, more than likely a stolen or hacked account.

I have only seen one gold spammer in a month. That is nothing compared to other games. Don’t even look at ESO, it is horrendous.

Right click, ignore.

You’re welcome.

It says power level. How do they do that? You give them your account login information and they level for you? Surely no one is dumb enough to do that.

Block and report

Never say never…

Legend waaaapon, aimglesh mucho’s…i had one of these aswell. Blocking is not a valid option though, so stop insisting it is.

blocking and reporting is the only thing you can do. So yes, it is a valid option.

Blocking doesn’t work however, they have all our names in their database, they will just use a different account and spam you again. And reporting them won’t do alot either, it’s an endless race and the spammers are always one step ahead. So no it’s still not a valid option cause it’s a temporary band-aid.

that temporary band aid is the only thing you and developers can do. If it makes you feel better though the reported accounts will either be given back to their proper owners, or terminated as some are actually bought by gold sellers, therefore it makes them lose money. Just keep blocking and reporting. Plus is it really that bad? At most I get a whisper couple of times a week and a mail like once a month. It’s far worse on other MMOs.

I only posted in this thread to confirm it’s been getting worse: i’m not the buthurt kind of guy so i personally dont really care.

Well, I guess if you have nothing better to do with your life you could always annoy them by contacting them and filling in fake information to waste their time.

Other than that, it’s report and block.

i kinda feel its geting worst, i mean, got alot of spams latly

It’s interesting that the font is not the default one.

I did notice a considerable spike in gold seller PMs yesterday too. It actually got to the point where I had to block a couple of them because they were so persistent. (Normally I only get one PM, I report it, and that’s the last I hear from them.)

Normally you see an increase in gold sellers during free weekends and when there is a sale on the game.

Best thing you can do is just ignore and report them. The spam will go down in a few days once the accounts are ban’d again.

I see 1/10th the gold sellers in GW2 than I see in other mmo’s so I am not complaining. Just block and report them and move on.

Not really helpful though, every few minutes some new account pms. My blocklist is pages long.
