How do deal with plat sellers

sensie · 01-16-2007, 05:23 PM

Stumbled upon a method to get plat sellers to log off. When one of them sends you a tell, report it, then start sending them tells /replie "stop sending me tells" over and over and over again. The person usually logs within a minute, maybe if we all do this maybe this might not deter them who knows lol.

That really won't do anything. These gold sales spam are done with software where they issue a number of /who commands to create a list of characters online then it spams the tells and shuts down. The report part is useful since SoE said they now scan reports for gold sales spam but the rest is wasting you time.

Handle it like a true monk should. Go up to them and initialize Duel Bet. They'll be too concerned with making a sale that they wont notice that you just killed them, got your 50 platinum back, and robbed them of thier item.

Just /ignore.I'm sure SOE sees in their stats when a lvl 1 sends tells en masse to all people on the server.Don't waste your own time on it tho. /ignore to avoid the same seller sending you a numerous amount of tells.
