Swizzbeat Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 If I seriously have to sit there and constantly have people advertising/talking about their services I'm going to kill myself. Please put a rule in place that limits service talk, such as a set time limit of 10 or so minutes to post about your service. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XavierM Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I'd say at least 15 minutes, it is really annoying, specially because they have long ass messages 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiscuitMan Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) I agree, sometimes (read: almost all the time) the chat box turns into a mini marketplace, and everyone gets offended when you ask them to stop posting services >.> Edit: okay i join chat and there's a service war going on, personally I'd say no service talk in the chat box, every single time I'm in there there're people bitching at each other.

Bae Suzy Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Its so annoying.. Chatbox is a place to talk and chill etc.. not a place to advertise your service.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bug Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 id say min 15 minutes too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BotRS123 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I support this. I don't mind it if they post every so often, but some people re-post it every time their messages goes away, which is literally less than 10 seconds sometimes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zScripz Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Support, they fill the market with their spam all day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Maldesto Posted January 1, 2014 Administrator Share Posted January 1, 2014 I am trying to find a suitable way to address this, how are we going to know if 15 minutes has passed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swizzbeat Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 I am trying to find a suitable way to address this, how are we going to know if 15 minutes has passed. Is it possible to add a time stamp of some sort to the messages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deffiliate Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Why not just make the rule NO marketplace advertisements? If someone needs a service done I doubt the chat box is the place they'll go to look for one. The only purpose those messages serve is to annoy the people having a good time in there.

Megaman Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Limit links but like not offers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BotRS123 Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Maybe this should just be a rule that is listed right before you enter the chat. The CBAs can monitor this and give a warning (not actual forums warning, but like "you can't keep spamming your market stuff in the chat") and if they continue to do it, ban them from the chat. Is it possible to add a time stamp of some sort to the messages? If that was the case, couldn't they just alter the message a bit and it will work fine?

That's actually a really good point, I support this. Half the communities I've been on despite some actually being just a completely market related site don't even allow it.

Megaman Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I don't agree with completely stopping it I mean stop the spam and all but we all need something to do and I think if we don't go overboard then its fine and if like 2 people complain it's annoying then make them stop?
