Getting False Reported (I can't close or delete this thread, can a GM please do so? Thank you.)

Blizz is not going to punish people for having opinions or sending in reports.

You don’t consider a squelch a punishment, I do.

@Wolfess-khazgoroth

Just make sure your posting is within their parameters and your fine.

Their parameters are so loosely defined that this is not possible. There are people on my server who report any and all advertisement in trade chat, yet Blizzard states the following.

@Linxy

This week the 9.2.7 update introduces the new chat channel: Trade (Services). The Trade (Services) chat channel is used for searching and advertising services like raiding, dungeons, or PvP activities, keeping the original Trade chat channel available for traditional buying and selling of items and profession services.

With the separation of trade services into its own chat channel, a new policy will take place. Any boosting, carrying, or other similar services offered for gold that’s advertised outside of the Trade (Services) chat channel will be considered spam and the proper actions will be taken, so be sure to switch your service advertisements to the new chat channel when it becomes available after this week’s regional maintenance.

@Wolfess-khazgoroth

So use the right channels

I am.

@Wolfess-khazgoroth

dont be spammy

Impossible as “spam” is determined by the individual, and some individuals on my server think “spam” can be posting once ever.

@Wolfess-khazgoroth

watch your p’s and q’s (no swearing etc).

I have been. I just avoid as much contact with random people as possible now. Not worth the risk of offending someone, so I’d rather say nothing. If there was a way to sell my goods to people without having to advertise I’d happily do so.
