People Suck Avoid Them Whenever Possible

Best thing a developer can do to combat gold spammers is an instant report button complete with a screen grab of the chatbox or open mail message. For some reason this has not caught on. As far as the users of these services its understandable that Joe the butcher who works 10 hours a day and plays on sunday afternoon might be tempted to buy gold or leveling services. Games like these reward time played more then anything else.

AION will have as many gold sellers as WoW had - this means thousands. So prepare for annoying tells like most of other Asian MMOs have. And nope, no way of reporting it. I guess NCSoft were hoping that they game is somehow different and didn't care about providing means of reporting gold sellers lol.

Yep all they would need to do is put a

/goldspam NAME

and it would take all convo's from whatever name you put in and send it to them... quick and easy for the user and then they don't have to worry about it anymore... maybe even a block also, just so you don't get it anymore...

I worried this would happen. There is a system in place...right click the player and hit report I believe

That's quite a claim. 


It will be successful, but millions? You're dreaming.


 

Seem's to me that your the only one on here so far to dissagree. (which is strange)

I'm telling you this will be massive, main reason is there's nothink else out there worth playing at the moment, secondly most people have got bored of WoW will lov it. (kids mainly)

Thirdly the game has already been out a year in Korea, and is doing very well.

Fourthly you got wings to fly

AoC doesn't have problems with gold spammers, im affraid Aion will.

LotRO had the option of right-clicking the name of the person and report as gold-spammer.  Not only did it report the gold-spammer to the gms, but it also blocked that person.  A nice feature that I think a lot of games should pick up on.

I like the feature that prevents you from talking in channel chat until you are level 5.  I think that this is a good way to try and deter gold spammers.  While this will not stop them, I think it will at least slow them down a bit.  Maybe something NCsoft could do in the future, if gold spamming becomes a problem, is raise the lvl you have to be to talk in channel chat.  Raising that barrier to lvl 10 or 15 would really deter gold spammers, but it would make it a bit harder for players.


 

gold farmers ussually have the highest lvl players... The Boss char. is usssually played 24/7 so he can protect the lower lvl farmers...

Besides chat req. will not prevent anything... they can just lvl up some spam farmers in 1 day.... NCSOFT has always been a farmer friendly company, most likely they are getting kick backs...

Look inside yourself, before you point out others faults.

Blame the builders

Build to STOP Farming.....................

 

no Koreans

Release on same date.

Keep servers seperated.  ie. east from west.

NO Addons.

Not in the same guild...no "Telling", not in the same locations, can't hear you. One to One talking only...or in small area.

 

 

ops lost 250,000 players or more.......

 

 

And look what your playing...............Dumby

…..it’s a guideline, not a rule, as players we must remember: “It’s a Game”.

Sad thing is every game has them. You are never going to get rid of them. If ppl buy then they will sell. I just block them as they come up. Only real thing you can do ATM

Played Aoc/DDO/FFXI/WAR
Playing Aion / Champions Online / LoTRO

Waiting for FFXIV =))
