That RMT spam...

Jesus christ this shit is getting worse by the day, please do something about these RMT knobheads GGG...

I was a forum moderator on kongregate. The admins there developed this program that would autohide topics with certain patterns(ad spam topics). There would be this feature that let moderators flag a post as spam so the program would get better with time.

In rare cases it would autohide legit posts but unflagging them also improves the program of course.

GGG needs something like that.

What would you suggest GGG do,not being snarky,just and honest question ? =)

RMT is here to stay and will get a lot worse by the end of the day.

It's cause and effect and the cause can't be treated as the game is developed around it.The best a player can do is ignore it.

It's sad, but the spam works.

There are a lot of things GGG can do, filtering scrpits is one option. Making it "harder" to create an acount is an other thing.

First person to suggest "Captcha" should be banned and have his/her accounts erased.

phpbb olympus captcha.

Only bots could read it ;D

it can be automated easy and by reducing the hability to create new accounts on forum only

or just require them to get to level 30 to be able to post outside the "gameplay help" and "bug report" forums.

that would slow it down substantially

Or fix the game so people don't feel that they have to do it to get anywhere.

circular problem

GGG looks at stats -> omg too many orbs are dropping!!! (they are farmed by bots)

-> Nerf drop rates

GGG looks at stats -> omg still too many orbs are dropping!! (botters ramped up)

-> Nerf drop rates more

normal player -> quits game or RMT's

Kinda missed the last line there. Maybe the way to get rid of RMT is to make things more common. That or it would be hard to have RMT on a SFL. No spamming chat with sites since there would be no trading.
