Reporting Spam

#1 » Post by Liqueur » 03 Jul 2016 20:53

I'd like to report players Catchy, Canniball and Mcc for extensive spam on world chat in russian, as can be seen on the screenshots below. I would like to see justice here, because they got away with a mere warning for a very ignorant and quite obviously deliberate disruption on public channels, while player Hollycherno got muted for using world chat a few times to look for people for the event que, only because LFG channel was bugged for him.

and add to this topic the staff ''doing their job''

Image

as you can see , I can't enter the lfg chat , I can see it , I can't write on it , and it happens on this server ever since I got here , sometimes I just can't write.

On my screenshot you can clearly see that I can see lfg chat but can't type in it.

Before some1 decides to post a ''did you try turning it off and on tutorial'' know this : I have tried reloading , reloging , loging with no addons , deleting cache folder , leaving and reentering the lfg channel , same crap , it's a known server bug about which I've never complained but worked my way around it.

So before you go muting people for your own chat bugs , fix them and make people be able to use the channels they are ment to.

And yea , I'll keep using world channel when I can't write in lfg , it says only so much about staff priorities , clearly you guys are always here when a mute needs to be issued , but when help is needed noone here for 2 hours or answer is ''we can't help cause we don't know how to''.

-certain staff that helped me when I needed quickly good job , but my post above just shows the attitude towards the comunity in 97% of situations.

it's actually a client bug
wich is usually fixed by reseting chat or clearing addon cache or eventually manually rejoining the channel and reloging.
but it's easier to complain about it, right?

That would be great if it actually worked that way, but clearly it doesn't, since Cherno mentioned everything he tried to fix it and nothing worked. I believe he tried everything you suggested, too. Also, we are not complaining, we are making a report. A joint report, if you may. Since the report has another part as well, and it would be nice if you didn't just ignore it, but concerned yourself with it too.

Hi Liqueur, i had been muted for 1 hour for this : http://prntscr.com/bocj44

unlike me who broke a very very offensive rule which is asking a GM a question, the one you are trying to report here is just spamming for fun and i see nothing wrong in it.

if you said he was using channel trading for trades or lookingforgroup for raiding i would have said that you have a point and player should have been banned.

but here i see only a player who spams in none english languege which is nothing against the server rules i dont see why he should be muted for more than me who dared to ask a gm a question ?

now without being sarcastic: i dont know why but it seems rules are rules when it is convinient and when its not convinient theres a feeling like the rules are not really important and a must.

only rule i've seen so far that was always enforced by the staff is the rule that is saying that the staff keep the right to decide.

English exclusively on public chats IS a rule and it can and should be punished when broken. I've seen people muted for 3 lines in a foreign language, so I don't know what's the holdup here.

After you do what Prodigy said you need to be in a zone outside Dalaran and rejoin the channel. This used to work before, I personally rarely have the LFG bug so can't say what is causing it really but this trick always worked for me.

As for the players I checked their mute history and they were already muted for this. More than this cannot be issued at the moment as their mute history is not something that could get them banned (at least for now).

Rejoining the channel outside Dalaran sounds like a new trick we need to try next time we have that issue, thank you.

That's strange though because after the players were warned I still saw them continue using the channels, just switching to English instead. That's why I even bothered making a report, it seemed like they got away with it without any punishment.

i had a deja vu.

rofl, it almost look as if when a gm tells you that a player was warned he was not really warned and it was only to shut you.

or either the staff detterent force is very very grinded as if players being warned and still few moments later repeat it that could lead to no other conclusion.

I was also muted by Etro for saying LFG in the world chat after being warned in the LFG chat to use LFG for its purposes, this was during the spam that was happening on the chat at the time.
Nothing was said about world chat and nothing was told to not use it for world.
I find it very professional that I was muted for not being in the right channel and there was no warning given.
I went in IRC chat and was basically told tough as they ganged up on me on there pedastal of doing no wrong and was prompty kicked and banned by Prodigy so I couldnt object to the mute.
Was told a warning was given in world chat (with no proof, just there word for it, which counts for jack shit) but how are you supposed to see a warning in world chat during the gibbrish spam without a blue tag? it gets drown out. No clear warning was given.

You were kicked from IRC because of the way you were talking and calling Etro and idiot and a power abuser and then making threats of reporting him. Then you were arguing with Prodigy who asked you to stop and you kept going on so please don't act like some saint. In any case, this is not the place to talk about this. You are still free to send Roel that report you wanted yesterday.

I will go ahead and lock this topic. Liqueur feel free to send me a PM if the chat problem still persists.
