I swear it should be illegal to...

.....send people PMs asking:


1. anything about hats (if the player's selling them or what hats the player has, etc.)

2. if the player can support thier guild

These 2 should be classified as harassment. It is flat out annoying to see that yellow PM icon and find out it's some idiot asking you about your hats or if you can support thier guild. Shortly before posting this message I had gotten 2 of these
annoying PMs in a span of about 10-20 minutes.

I know some ppl may be selling hats and would tell a player who PMed him asking this what they are selling, but I don't sell hats.
I just have one I like that matches my clothes and I'm not selling it. Yet I seem to be a target for PMs asking about hats. Most ppl who read earlier posts from me should know I have no intention of selling hats. If anyone wants to know who's selling hats, 4 words: go to the market.

About ppl who PM saying "can you support my guild" This should not only get the player jailed, but the guild he was looking to get ppl to support should be denied tags. The logic behind this is easy. Guilds should be unofficial for a while to get people to join, then get their members to support the guild when it seeks official status and guild tags.
This is why staff made the guild system the way it is, so they know guilds have members. Sadly too many people abuse this now. This is why staff should not only jail someone who's trying to get ppl to support guilds throgh PMs but also refuse to give their guild its tags, because their guild is a newbie guild with no members and a guy trying to get tags without recruiting any members.


I've gotten tons of these PMs. It's starting to get under my skin big time. Which is why recently I started responding to them with nasty replies. I'm getting fed up with the number of ppl who send me PMs like this, something needs to be done about these idiots and their harassment.

I went on RC and ten seconds later two idiots already asked me if I had some hats.

Yeah and you may one day need a hat or want people to support your guild and noone will answer your masses...PMs are more direct contact in a way.

It's very annoying, people always ask for hats. Even when I am on RC I get those PMs.

I completely agree that massing for guild supporters ruins the point. And I also think that people should at least use their brains before they PM me about hats, since I have a total of 0 gralat and a short online time on the account I use.

There was a guy that was annoying me both yesterday and today about a Green Shogun that I don't have, and he wanted to buy it from me.

I had to tell him to shut up.
