Trivia Games

The daily trivia games in Orgrimmar are getting to be a problem, my chat is filled up with people asking questions and shouting answers and these people congregate right beside the bank so it reaches from the bank to the AH in the chat box I miss whispers, trade offers and groups because of this crap.
I have talked to a GM about the trivia games in Orgrimmar and he just told me to put them on ignore but the ignore list only has 25 people max and its already filled up with Nostalrius' other great people. The ticket I put in wasnt even to ask that he ban someone it was to ask him to tell the trivia people to take it somewhere else away from populated areas (something I already asked them to do and they gave me a some smart-a*s answer). After getting the first ticket I put in the second one explaining to him that I couldn't ignore them all and he just told me to stop cluttering the ticket system with something that has already been dealt with. The problem is that it hasn't been dealt with since only I had anything said to me.
If this was a "Blizzlike" server the way you love to brag in your videos then it would have been dealt with immediately, spamming is banable according to blizzard they even make an option to report spammers later on in the game. Just because you're too lazy to deal with it doesnt change the fact that it is "Mr. Customer Support."

Now let me discuss this second ticket in case you don't see what hes doing, the reason he says "don't clutter our ticket system" is because hes attempting (poorly) to set me up for a ban and then he has a legit reason to give me one for "spamming GM Ticket box". its not clever, its being lazy.

you could make another window for your whispers, trade chat and what not. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

so your solution is I make a bunch of different windows to cater to spammers rather than the gm doing his job and stopping the one causing all the spam?

Get the extended ignore list addon, otherwise there is nothing for a GM to do as those trvia games don't count as spam. If you tried that shit on retail the GMs from Blizzard would give you the same answer, so stop whining and deal with it.

You could always roll an alliance alt, level him up. Then gank the trivia guy. Bonus points for doing it in under 2.47 seconds!

Just make a separate window for all the "Say" stuff.

Actually Blizzard has stopped the trivia games, thats why you dont see them any more in retail.

I think blizzard doesn't let trivia games go anymore because they retcon half of their lore and the other half is just dogshit.

You obviously didn't play in Vanilla if you think this is new/can't get over it. This was a big thing in Vanilla, and people NEVER got banned for it. It is allowed, and it should be. People have given you solutions but you just keep crying because rather than solving the problem you just want to stop the trivia people from having fun. I don't think you comprehend what spam is(your tickets are spam, considering the GM told you that they aren't doing anything wrong and you continue to submit them). You also came to the forums to push the issue even further, in my eyes the only person spamming is you.

you obviously have no idea what spam is, in your eyes I dont give a f**k what you think, I didnt ask you to read this you chose to on your own. You think if I go to org and just keep spamming "true and false" infinitely thats not spam? people gave me a way to cut out a part of the game to deal with people who cant go places other than a populated area. Why do I have to change my say to a different tab? im not the one spamming. So because this gm doesnt want to do what gms are supposed to do (stop spammers) I now am supposed to switch tabs any time I want to know what someone said to me in /say? And this was a big thing in vanilla till people got tired of it and put a stop to it, this isnt new to me I just dont want to relive this crap. This is no better than someone spamming to sell gold, the only exception is at least the gold sellers arent firing off messages constantly.
