We ban them as soon as we catch them so please, do keep reporting them. It's also a good idea to clear your ignore list every now and then, because obviously spammers who we have banned do not need to stay and clog it up.

Would not allowing VPN-s to connect to the realm reduce gold sellers by a large amount?
Not sure how this works tho.
If anyone has insight on how they operate feel free to share. :D

The only thing that would reduce goldsellers is when people stop buying gold. There is nothing you can do to stop a supply of anything if there is a demand for it (drugs come to mind). It can only become more expensive = more profitable to sell.

This is getting annoying and I'm on the PvE server. I can't imagine what it's like on the PvP server with the gold spammers.

They don't seem to spam lvl60 characters, but they do spam and literally SPAM low level characters.
This Chinese infestation is becoming tiresome and I will keep adressing it since you clearly don't tend to get rid of the problem anytime soon.
They are bad for the server and time will prove this.
They ruin my ingame time because I HAVE to download addons to get rid of their shit and I have to invest my free time in avoiding their shit.
As I said, this becomes tiresome and I find more and more moments where I just can't be bothered to log in anymore.
I do have loads of other games to play and i'm glad they exist.

So far I've personally reported over 50 of goldsellers.
Here's a little tutorial for reporting:
1. Make sure to screenshot / picture with your phone and upload to imgur.com or any similar site as GMs need evidence before they can investigate the case.
2. After uploading to your desired site go to "Help Request">"Issues that GMs can assist with">"Behavior/Harassment">"Report Verbal Harassment" and put the link and a simple text of what you are reporting.
3. After finishing the report go with "Submit!"
Have a nice day!
