Right Click Report - Not Going Away

No Gold Seller spam in my Classic WoW!

Confused. Could gold-sellers not be reported before RCR?

Like most TOS violators gold spammers were able to operate with impunity for days without anything being done about them.

RCR ended that real quick

Ignoring them doesn’t ignore their negative impact on the game.

They could still spam

RCR put an end to that real quick

I wonder if this topic will still be ongoing after Classic launches. Either way, we’re getting the right-click report system fully intact and I couldn’t be more glad.

Woohoo! RCR FTW! No Gold Seller spam in my Classic WoW!

Speaking only for myself, I support adding an “illegal services” option to the RCR menu and tying the auto squelch to that option only. This would still leave the gold sellers subject to being squelched and auctioned while removing much of the potential for abuse.

Um…

No Gold Seller spam in my Classic WoW!

Ignoring them removes the negative impact on YOUR game, apparently.

I’m confused, are you defending Gold Sellers?

[Fesz-cenarius]

Well once again no, as with most things that are subjective what one person thinks is a violation and reports might not be the same for another person.

That doesn’t mean the person who reported was in any way acting in bad faith.

And this is a case in point, the guy was specifically targeting specific servers as not worthy of his group. Shocking that people on those servers might object…

Was the report warranted due to an actual violation having bern committed?

OR

Was the report unwarranted due to no actual violation having been committed?

The report was due to a perceived violation occurring, that makes it a valid report and not an abuse.

An actual abuse would be someone making a report with the knowledge no violation had occurred.

Of course I am.

[Galdor-maelstrom (Galdor)]

It sure seems like it. The negative impacts Gold Sellers have on the game are far more reaching than just some annoying messages in trade chat.

You should know this.

P.S. Does it really take you this long to think up your one line responses?

[Fateweaver-misha (Fateweaver)]

It sure seems like it.

If you say so. I guess pointing out that RCR is not, and was never, necessary to deal with gold-spammers is somehow supporting gold-spammers. Makes perfect sense.

The system became necessary to deal with the huge influx of Gold Sellers. You and Fesz must have a stake in one of these companies.

Hey if you want to get blizzard to fund enough GM’s to monitor all public chat channels 24/7/365 that would be equally acceptable.

An actual abuse would be someone making a report with the knowledge no violation had occurred.

It appears that you are still trying to justify abuse of the system while avoiding consequences fircthat abuse by trying hide in the “grey areas”.

IMO, Blizzard should make the RCR system binary.

IMO, if a squelch is overturned because no violation was actually committed, then every player that filed a report that contributed to that squelch should be subject to an escalating punishment.

As so many of those desiring the auto squelch want to say “actions have consequences and players should be held accountable for their actions”. That also goes for those filing reports.

IMO, those filing reports should be as ready to accept the consequences of their actions as those they are reporting.

I believe that those reporting things such as racial slurs or abusive language should have no fear as those are things that will in all likelihood be upheld.

The player that simply doesn’t like what Johnny said, however, should have to think about whether they want to risk being punished, IMO.

I completely agree, abusing the system should have consequences.

Filing a report that blizzard over turns is not automatically an abuse however.

Projecting much?

Not supporting RCR, and the auto-squelch in particular, doesn’t mean someone supports gold-spammers or people making inappropriate remarks in chat. As much as you would like it to.

[Galdor-maelstrom (Galdor)]

Constantly discrediting the value of the system in removing Gold Sellers and their spam from the game sure doesn’t help your case.

The system is going live, as is and there’s not a thing you can do about it. The system is core to Blizzard’s CS operations and your paranoia about potential abuse is absolutely not going to make any difference.

[Fateweaver-misha (Fateweaver)]

paranoia

Again with the projecting.

I don’t doubt that RCR will be in Classic. That doesn’t mean I can’t voice my disapproval.

Remember when posters did exactly what you are doing now? Telling pro-vanilla people that Classic would never happen? Telling them to back off?
