We have a guy on <removed> named <removed>. He logs on for a few mins to spam macros of a face with a part of the male body in the mouth. Is this something to report to a GM or use the report spam feature for? I've reported him multiple times and ignored him on a few toons yet everytime I log on a character that doesn't have him on ignore I get hit with a chat log full of stupid pictures.

^ that is the spam he is doing. I suppose I shouldn't post it.. but I have no idea how else to show it.


Well the ...text doesnt really work on the forums it seems.

The quickest way to report this player's activities to our department, Absolution, is indeed via the Report Spam feature. In addition to alerting our in-game staff to the repetitious text, this feature will allow you to ignore all characters on the player's account for the duration of your login session.

Given your experiences, though, it may provide more advantageous to simply ignore the player outright (using the /ignore command) and then submit an in-game petition reporting the obscene images which this spamming creates. This requires a bit more effort on your part, but will allow to us to fully address all aspects of this player's contributions within the Trade Channel. :)
