remove the ads for mythic + boosting in the group finder
just make it so that if you’re advertising a dungeon you can’t change the title,
it should just say the level of the dungeon and region, sick of seeing 50 ads of this:
w t S m + () boOst 5 gea Rs 2 LoOtg straders SIGN uP nOw for Gea R!!
all the titles should just say this
+15 Oceanic
or
+12 USA
gotta get rid of the advertisement bots they ruin the game
I’m in group finder every single day and have never seen this.
You are blind then.
Or people see 1 ad, start /wrist and inflate their experiences.
Whatever they did seems to work I see very few advertisements as well Vs how it used to be. I did a ton of keys today and don’t recall
Seeing any ads.
FWIW, there are 7 up right now, and it’s currently 12:45 AM PST so not exactly peak time.
They’re mostly copies from the same couple of sites as far as I can tell, but it’s 7 unique listings.
I’m not asserting that it’s so prevalent that it’s problematic, or anything like that. Just making the observation that even on a relatively off-peak time, it’s not like there’s just no ads, or just a couple of ads. I’d expect more ads to be present when it’s peak time.
Then youre a bot yourself.
Sure, to anyone else, I may as well be. People do seem to think they can tell me how and what to pull.
there are some good addons that will block 99% of the ads.
shouldnt haveto rely on an addon for that haha
Look for Premade Groups Filter on curseforge. It works great.
You shouldn’t, but here we are. If nothing else, it’s a more immediate fix until Blizzard works on it. As Syllaeria mentioned, Premade Group Finder is pretty nice. It also helps you refine groups you’re looking for to filter out a bit of non-ad noise too.
Restrict Trial Account. Don’t allow Trial Accounts to use Addons and 90% of the Bot, Gold Seller, Advertising will be stopped.
As it is now Blizzard bans these Bot/Trial Accounts and they just make another.
None of these bots are trial accounts.
Actually a good amount of them are. If you find them in the world you can see they are listed as a Trial Account.
They are using a few different addons (Won’t list them here as its against the rules but easily found). They allow Gold Sellers, Boosters, etc to bypass the chat restriction.
Always report them, and I am sure Blizzard bans them, but since its just a free Trial another is created.
There is no reason Trail Accounts need access to addons. Restrict such accounts until they are full paying accounts.
Also shouldn’t it be very possible to at least somewhat automate the function of flagging people that post garbage like WTS FREE LOOT 20 CARRY SEASON MOUNT AND ACHIEVEMENTS
