"Influence" Spammers and such...

Hey folks,

Hope all is well.

As the title states, are they back? I just got a random tell for a "Free IO recipe code". Also I saw the same person trying to tell others in Help Chat on Freedom.

I ignored person as spammer.

Thanks in advance.

I haven't noticed any yet. I imagine they'd hit Freedom first.

/ignorespammer is what I'd do.

There's been a few reports about a small rise since Freedom launched. If they're using tells, that means they've either found a loophole in the system, or they're paying $5 to unlock it... if it's the former, the Devs definitely need to fix that ASAP... if it's the latter, with any luck they'll not get anywhere close to enough chumps to make the continual investments of $5 worth it and will give up again.

I received a few spam emails on Exalted. Yeah, I know I can restrict the senders in Options, but I like to participate in adding to their ignore peg counts.

Also, unless they fixed it, the email restrictions block sending yourself emails.

And anyone saying they are giving a "Free IO code"... is lying. Devs haven't release anything like that yet (market seems set up for it, but they'd want to show them off by having some kinda give-away they link to)

And technically it would be an SBE, not IO - they work differently.

I always have my email restrictions enabled and I have never had any trouble sending myself emails.
