Hey,
It's a well known fact that the game is plagued with tons of adena spamming bots, it doesn't take a genius to know or understand that the complete removal of adeana spamming bots would greatly harm Lineage II but the spam is beyond terrible...
As a programmer myself I know that from a coding aspect it really isn't that hard to work out a few ways to limit and block spam bots, the lack in effort is just shocking.
The following 5 methods should be in play to reduce spam...
Weekly Filter Updates
- NCSOFT should be pushing small updates on a weekly basis that simply updates a filter list which has gold spammer phrases or website names that when someone sends a chat message or creates a shop with that phrase every other user will NOT see it.
Regular Expression Filters
- It's easy to make a few easy and simple regular expression rules to detect and capture gold spammer phrases/sites, from this you should MUTE the gold spammer so their messages only show for themselves, not others. (Same applies for stores, inbox messages, party matching)
Custom Filters
- NCSOFT should provide a file inside the Lineage II installation folder for advanced users to be able to either edit manually AND/OR add phrases/words to from in-game that will act the same as /block
Duplicate Filters
- If someone tries to post the same message more than three times in 1 min then their 4th attempt will be blanked, if they reach 10 messages in 5 mins then they should be muted for 1 hour.
Total Limitations
- If a user does the exact same message 25 times in an hour then they should be muted for an hour, if in the following hour they try to post the same message a further 10 times then they should be muted for 24 hours. Includes same messages in different chats (whisper, trade, normal...etc)
Level Limitations
- You introduced some limitations but didn't do it how you should because normal chat should also have a limitation of needing to be level 20 or higher to use normal chat.
Misc Limitations
- You should add petty, annoying limitations for example...
- To use Trade & Shout & Party Matching the character must have pants, gloves, boots, something in one of their hands, hat, chest...
- To use Trade & Shout & Party Matching you must have 1 million gold or more.
