Every day on Echo Isles, gold sellers flood Stormwind and Ironforge with floating bots that arrange themselves in ever more obnoxious and distracting configurations.

I don't think it's unreasonable to expect town to be free of floating noobs and towering phishing scams.

Q u o t e:
^^This.

There is a team of people looking specifically for reports with "corpse spam" and similar terms in tickets so it can be dealt with quickly and so the exploit can be viewed. Be patient with the process while they look for a long term solution.


Exactly.

It isn't unreasonable, Goreflame, but preventative measures take time as our Developers need to be able to implement such a resolution that does not negatively impact legitimate players. In the meantime please submit an in-game petition when you see this happening if you include keywords such as "Body Spam" or "Body Advertisement" as well as the general location (i.e. Stormwind Bank, Orgrimmar Auction House, etc..) someone will be along as quickly as possible to address the situation.
