You have to install the other extensions though. For example, the cc cleaner one lets you add words into the filter.

If you have the twitch app, it’s easier to get them all. Badboy alone is not enough.

To bring up the settings remember to type /badboy

Would you believe I don’t use it myself? I keep Trade in its own separate chat tab, as I don’t need to see it unless I have an immediate use for it.

I don’t like how its auto-reporting function works for personal reasons.

yeah i already noticed that, got the ignore list plugin and this one. gonna do wts and selling on it and add more if they pop.

THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE!

You have to add more than that. The spammers know about it and do different things to avoid your filters.

I have like 30 different versions of the keywords the spammers use.

Though Idk about filtering “wts” you might miss out on cool stuff :).

This might be a bad plan. WTS is used for a lot more than just carry spam. I’d stick to stuff that applies exclusively to carry sales, like Mythic or Dungeon or Raid, etc.

you can get badboy cc_cleaner and add the words “mythic” “Gold only” “experienced raiders” “runs” and it’ll block any chat messages containing those words. Of course this isn’t foolproof but most bots scamming for runs use a pretty similar script.

I beleive it.

I have it, but I don’t use it because /leave trade is the first thing I do when I create a new character. if I need to use it, I’ll /join… then /leave when I’m done.

I don’t need to see the mouth frothingly disgusting political rants or trolling.

game’s better without trade chat showing :slight_smile:

I’m a bit surprised the auto-reporting function was allowed by blizz. seems that they wouldn’t like that. or maybe shouldn’t.

yeah, already noticed. have had to add “boost, cheap, gold” to it

Badboy addon

If it’s used appropriately, it’s not a problem, as the user sets the conditions for the auto-report.

Just, I don’t trust many people to set the conditions appropriately.

nah its fine, if theres something i want to buy i can just look on the AH. most wts is just people selling runs and other crap

Yeah I’m sick of trade chat being spammed with those to.

Depending on how Professions shake out in Shadowlands, that could change drastically, so just keep that in mind.

When professions are done well in an expansion, a lot of people will link recipes with a WTS tag. That doesn’t happen right now because professions are just garbage this xpac.
