sigh.. reporters...

When I play my 5 identical orc shamans, I get a lot of attention.
But when I play my mixed team (see sig) I hardly get any attention at all.
So I guess if you wan't to avoid the tells try a mixed team

I spent the past weekend doing outside quests with my mixed squad, and got zero attention as far as I could tell. No one followed me around, no one sent tells, nada. I think perhaps one or two people stopped for a moment and then moved on. But it's possible that they didn't stop because they saw my group. Even when I was doing a few quests in areas where other people were questing, no one paid me any mind. About the only interaction I had was when a druid buffed my paladin.

Tell you the truth, it went so smoothly that I didn't even realize it until just now. I've had very good experiences on this server thus far.

Now that you guys have brought this up, I too have noticed that I get almost no attention whatsoever from people with my mixed group. I get the occasional person obviously stop and look, but then go on their way again. I've only ever gotten one "botter" comment, and that was about a month ago. As far as I can tell, no /reporting of me yet.

Why Facebook wants you to have 100,000 friends

Suggestion to Blizz: Give us a larger friends/foes list.

How many people have you seen writing the childish "anal" spam in chat? I have seen it dozens of times. "report as spam" is not sufficient as it only blocks that chat right until you relog. Just 1 occurence of such spam can cover about a dozen people in 1 minute of time. (*)

You can fix this by "/leave general and /leave trade :P

Then there's also the annoying level 1-10 alts that are begging for gold in major cities. They ask for 10 silver and when you give it to them they just continue spamming(are they bots?). I'm not talking about 1 or 2 beg messages, but about more than a hundred. I encounter about 1 of these characters per 2 months that I put on ignore.

This won't work for everyone..but you can open a trade window with about 100g and then just get up and go do something for a while. :whistling:

An ex-guildy who has since quit the game did just that, but he put 20,000g in the window and then sat at his computer pressing the space bar every minute or so while watching TV.
He said the guy finally closed the window 2 hours later.


50 for an ignore list is not too bad, it all depends on how often you purge your ignore list.
If you just let it grow, it will fill up.
At one point I had the addon which allowed you to ignore as many as you wanted, and I ignored all the "anal" trade comments along with the repeated item link for the same item, the engineer made BC-era rifle was annoying for 2 months on my server.
