Body spam non stop for 2 days

#0 - July 23, 2010, 1:56 a.m.

Since 10 am yesterday morning there have been floods of floating bodies spamming the same 2-3 websites every 5-10 minutes. I goto the human start area and check it out. They run 15 yds forward at high speed and then disappear, presumably gathering in the air. After they are all logged in they appear instantaneously in their formation on the ground, emitting emote spam from them laying down. I've been blocking them with my mammoth, but this is getting tiring.
I know making GM tickets with 'body spam' will get a priority ticket but I get disconnected when I make one and making one every 10 minutes would be slightly redundant.

Realm: Stormrage in front of the Stormwind AH.

Q u o t e:
They're back. New sites, new formations.

I actually checked your realm myself shortly after you posted and it seems that they either left or someone else had reported them and a Game Master got to it.

If you see these activities, Xurple, please submit an in-game petition. Include key phrases like "Body Spam" or "Body/Corpse advertisement" and include the location (i.e. outside Ironforge Auction House, outside Orgrimmar Bank, etc...).

We have staff that is keeping an eye out for these reports and will get to them as soon as they can. Unfortunately these are just temporary measures, as we clean up some, more are created elsewhere. Our Developers are looking into preventing this type of advertising and hope to implement a resolution as quickly as they can.

You said you cleared your WTF and WDB volders, but did you also delete or rename your Interface and Cache folders?

WDB is no longer part of the holy trinity of resetting your user interface, it is the Interface, WTF and Cache folders.

Give that a try and let me know. :)

That is strange indeed.

The Technical Support forums would certainly be the best place to post, perhaps a solution can be found there though I highly recommend e-mailing or calling as well.

I'm sorry I could not be of more assistance, Xurple, I'm not very tech savvy. I think my eyes started to glaze over at 802.11n. Hehe.

Good luck!
