Having local on by default was my suggestion, and make area cost a skill point like it used to, that way spammers have to pay for the privilege.
Local covers all of the arguments to have diplo in the first place, eg, surrenders, advice, pvp, anything.

And before you suggest that people turn area off, nobody does or will. You would have to /ignore everybody you fight so they dont /tell you how fail you were or how big of a coward you are or jerk you are or beg for their life etc etc etc.

People are afraid of being publicly humiliated so they will avoid fights. Well not all people but many new to pvp type players.

It is a shame but its true. Please think about at least looking at diplo again and maybe find a happy medium.

Maybe everyone on the opposite team is auto ignored and you can right click on them and un ignore them.

Again, you can do one of the following two things:
  • Turn off "untranslated chat" (or whatever it's called now). You will no longer hear enemies.
  • Turn off "Area Chat". You will no longer hear trash talking~

Asking FLS to intervene = wasted dev time~

We're going to need them to concentrate on balancing classes again after P&P, so we rilly don't need to rack up their lists.

Diplo in it's old form is nevar coming back and nor should it. It put cooperative, helpful people at a 1-skill point disadvantage over the sociopathic jerks and hermits~

The correct answer, once again, is to ban these jerks before they can drive away any more players.

They don't get banned. Le guillotine is still playing. I would like them to just change it to default area is off and you can opt in instead of having to figure out how to opt out. Once you read area chat it is nearly impossible to stop.

T.T

I think you're asking for a coding solution to your addiction problem~~~ Kerri has a 12 step program for Area Anonymous that helps you regain control of your life and PVP~

All silliness aside, um, I guess they could default the area chat checkbox to off, but that will only impact new players as they don't override your preferences.. evar. Even when they should; like when old preference files were no longer compatible and causing crashes >.>
