I'd prefer not to specify how exactly the filter works, so that it wouldn't be easy for scammers to bypass it, at least, too fast, in case they are watching us right now :suspicious1:

 

Definitly understandable. Should have thought about that myself. My bad ^^ :blush:

The fact that they write a sort of Numbers after their post will influence somehow the work of this new feature? 

Of course it does, unfortunately. Or at least I guess it does. Message filters work based on a pre-written scheme, filtering unwanted messages only work if the message has an exact match with the filter parameters. Generating a random number is a smart idea (if we can name something smart that intends to harm people), because there is never an exact match.

Except if the scheme is something like this: Remove all commas and invisible characters from the message and then try finding the unwanted text (in this case the website). if there is a match, the numbers and other text don't have to be taken into consideration. And if anyone gets locked out unintentionally (for example bad filtering or they mentioned the website like "*website* is fake!"), support can review the case and re-enable the account. Also, this method cannot be bypassed, not even with randomly generated numbers or separated text. Drawback: every website to be filtered has to be added to the system manually.

 

But I still think a world chat limit raise would be the total winner.

Hey! We made an automatic banning of accounts scamming in the world chat. Please, write here, if you see someone spamming again in the chat for some time.

 

Awesome, so annoying to see those low lvls spamming on world chat

These bots seem familiar. Years ago, it was the old forum, there was a Russian (An old player who got banned) who is always spamming bots in the forum, replying to every thread. (I forgot what thing he was always posting but it was spam) I guess he may be the same person doing all of this or maybe some people who got the idea from him, and that's why the bot spamming started in server world chats. Pretty clever I think, to annoy people so much.

He was playing on the RU-Amber server until version 0.7.3, and was banned because of multiboxing (he had lots of characters like Zeddtemp, Zeddtempp, Zedttemp, and similar) and for numerous violations in the gameplay. I think, he is just mentally ill man, because after he got a permanent ban on all accounts, he openly declared "war" with developers, which is lay in everyday registration of new accounts like Zd_tttt_eeeeee_m.pppp0659 and spamming everywhere on the forum with anime video. Also, he once unsuccessfully tried to make a DDoS attack on this forum.

It's very weird that mentally ill people attack warspear-online. A simple game but sometimes, people get crazy :crazy::happy_yes1:
