False.
This topic is about getting any solution. The header are the two possibilties I thought about.
In the meantime, by reading here and thinking more about it, I get why censoring is no solution.
but ban is I think. Even if it's no autoban.
For example:
Calling a GM.
GM talks to the person (language problems get someone who is bilingual)
GM goes away
GM comes back invisible to see if a change really happened.
If not, ban.
Just as an idea...
In Chats you get kicked for some words. I know this is a game and no chat but I think this thing could be dealt with.
And I see the "children-thing" is not to be discussed which is annoying but no problem -> adults. I am an adult and don't like it when people spam there .... trollish.... waste. And it can't be the great solution to ignore everyone who does so. Has the ignore list a limit? I don't know. But even if not, it can't be the way to deal with that everytime.
You say "no begging" to a beggar and with some luck the beggar stops for a while.
But those trollwastespammers are just there to show everyone how stupid they are. You say "please leave me alone" they continue. You say "stop your spamming" they continue. You say "go away" they continue. Then you go away, 'cause you are sick of it and often the spammer follows you, or whispers or or... then you ignore him or her... so we are at the beginning...
Am I the only one who is really tired of that?
We have some rules and rules have to be taken serious. So why can't there be a way to enforce it?
Is it to much work? Ok, make me a gm, I go around and look for those trolls
*joke*
I think you know...
It is a problem...
