Take globals out of item mall (or make them more expensive)

I'm sick and tired of the global spamming, shit talking, and everything else that doesn't fall into those two categories.

Agreed. Nobody seems to be selling stuff on globals any longer.

Agreed.

It's nothing but spam and racial arguments.

and what about add a delay of 5 mins or something to the globals??

they would use them more to trade and not to "chat".. i think

Take globals away, add auction house.

All tho seeign as joymax gain like $5.000 a day on global chats, that will never happen.

Don't quote me on $5.000 it's just a random number. ac ac choi choi

Best idea.

But limitting the amount of silk people can spend (besides limit)? JM will not agree.

Of course not, it's free money to them for people to make asses out of themselves.

What I do think though is they need to revamp the chat system a bit, rather than make tabs, make filters. That way you can filter out globals if you wanted to.

Sounds like a quick and easy fix to me.

Yeah, it's all about $$$ here. Your rant will be ignored by Joymax, Stallowned.

lol theres so many stupid global fights on babel. naturally im compelled to take part in them. especially today when manami tried to say he doesnt bot.

theyre useful. i say keep them how they are. or just add like a time limit before you can use another.

I liked it better when they came from so-ok as prizes ;p, at least then there wouldnt be near as much spamming cus if you run out, you have to find them in shops or hope to get more form so-ok lol, wich would pretty much shut up annoying spammers.

Keep same price but limit it to 5 globals per day per person.

I saw leave it. But make rules for the globals. e.g. bot rants get 5 day ban, racial slurs get 10 day ban, etc.
Of course, we have to get GMs to moderate.

It would make the game less dickish, and 1ll, love the link baby. The truth ftw.

They should just make it so you can only use3 globals a day or an hour O.o

SRO homepage use to lag FF at times so the only way to close the tab was Ctrl+W.

If they would just give us the ignore feature like KSRO has.... Then they could waste their money on globals all day and those who dont wanna see them can ignore and JoyMax can still get their money.

How does that work? Can you just like add names into a ignore-list?

Anyways i voted no, at least something to do while grinding and listening to music... and a nice flame every now and then added by myself.

Stallowned · **Posted:** Mon Jan 29, 2007 6:55 am

Oh man my ignore list would be filled up within 30 seconds of me logging in after the update.
They really need to put that feature in asap.
Also need to put in a custom filter not just guild/party/all/union.

NO! Spamming with globals is the only thing that makes me happy!

RuYi · **Joined:** Apr 2006 **Posts:** 7145 **Location:** Done.

Agreed, let them at least be more expensive, so people will use them for usefull things instead of spamming. Bill Gates gave us MSN for that.

DarkJackal · **Joined:** Feb 2006 **Posts:** 6119 **Location:** A den~

Actualy, I think the best thing would be like if you use to many globals to fast or w/e you get chat block type of thing like there is for public chat now, I cant even count to like 5 without getting 10 second chat block >.>, but I agree with Twysta that its kinda entertaining to see alot of the globals, just the ones from those loser like lilazianboyz are annoying, like..

"1
2
3
4
5
6
7..."

"*** GM" over and over >.>.

Shouldn't be removed, the price should just be way higher.

-> Less spam, less buyers, same amount of money gained.
