So People are getting silenced for using Rare Share Addons

But, but, you cannot ‘spam’ more than 2 different things into a chat channel before it stops you posting more, if I write 2 separate lines and someone calls it spam, maybe they should look up the definition of what spam is, looking at you Caraz.

Yup exactly. But there are different ones. And that may be why people are seeing multiples. Or it may be a setting in some that people don’t have enabled.

Oh well i suppose. If i get silence i wont alert ppl. Ill just kill it. I only got the addon to help others anyways

By the time I’m done manually typing someone’s already engaged the rare and blew all their cds and drums.

If someone is running or trying to get to a rare knowing it’s dead already is helpful so they can move on to something else.

I’m so glad I’ve completed the rare part of the meta achievements. I feel sorry for ppl still searching for these rares. I guess you guys are on your own now.

I just tell everyone the name and coordinates, I only need my coordinates addon.

How do you know the difference?

It’s just going to look like a 24 hour silence to the person in question regardless (assuming no prior silences). The game doesn’t tell you that you’ve been squelched.

And if it truly is an enforced silence checked by GMs, then the person likely has the function to spam percentages on, which is way overkill unless it just lists the halfway point or something.

Within 1 minutes of arriving in Mechagon this morning I was greeted by this. One person may not be able to do that but an addon can and does.

And this hurt you how? Would you rather have Barrens chat or something?

People who announce rares are helping others who are hunting rares, simple as that.
These add-ons help people.
It’s faster and easier than manually typing things out.

The addon is reporting useful information

You chatting it up would be spam.

That’s awfully subjective.

The addon is of zero use to me.

They silence spam.

This add on spams.

You know what doesn’t spam? /yelling something is up. It’s easy. And it isn’t spam.

The silences are from RCR. The community at large finds those addons to be spammy and reports people using it, triggering an auto silence from the algorithms.

Yes. Because you were responding to me. I was talking about what I said that you responded to in the first place…

See how that works?

The people in question stated they appealed the silence and were denied. If it was a squelch, that would not have happened.

I’ve literally flown across the ENTIRE ZONE and gotten to a rare before it died because of these addons.

Stop stating false facts.
