We are responding to reports and addressing the issue individually as well as working on a more permanent solution.

Please submit an in-game petition including either of the key phrases already mentioned "Body Spam" or "Body Advertisement". We have Game Masters on the look out for this type of petition and will be along as quickly as possible to take care of them. Just give a general area that this is occurring (i.e. Orgrimmar Bank, Ironforge Auction House, etc...).

Our Developers are aware of the current method of advertising and they are working to address it on a much broader scale. Unfortunately this takes a bit of time, since these actions are using in-game mechanics they must avoid negatively impacting other systems that rely on those mechanics, such as walking.

I am sorry for what inconvenience these advertisements cause, we like them less than you do and are working to rid ourselves of the latest advertising campaign as quickly as possible.
Q u o t e:

Personally, I would use the report spam feature with body spam in the description as this is advertising which is considered spam.


You mean the Spam Category within the petitioning system, Mokaz? That would be a good option to use and will certain help direct those issues to be dealt with appropriately.
