recently I have noticed the appearance of some bot spammers that will sit in an area and spam messages that just look like a whole bunch of symbols and punctuations followed by a series of numbers. Are the gold spammers mad that they keep getting banned, so now they are just trying to ruin the chatbox or is it just some script kiddies with a penchant for annoying people? Any insights?

No just your average gold farmers. Just block them and your problem is solved.

I'm wondering if a filter was implemented maybe?

Maybe they're trying to type some codes, but fail? :p

I have yet to see this.
Maybe they are speaking some language unknown to humans?

We all know gold spammers are green aliens for the planet Spam, who follow the leader Sir Spamalot.

I once saw a spammer literally fight back (and fail, lol).

It was at the Elderine gate in Sea of Greed, and someone trained a Smart Phino up there (where the spammer was) so I watched in amusement as he tried fending it off with his level 1 sword before it killed him.

Though it was kinda disturbing, too, because I didn't think they'd actually respond to that kind of thing. o_o"

Actually there are a few types of gold spammers.

One speaks in Chinese characters.
One speaks in Mandarin pinyin.

They are also banned.

But surely if they speak in chinese characters it would come up with alot of [][][][][] box things.
It does normally for me.
Hmm...

Yea, I think I'd recognize that. It's not a language, it's more like symbols. The copyright symbol, tildes, dipthongs, english letters, numbers, ampersands, degree circles, etc.

The odd thing is... those symbols sometimes come alive in the chat box. Scary.

yep, some gold bots have even resorted to PMing on forums, like how i got a PM just on the weekend. I forgot to report though but when i checked right now it showed it was banned. Or at least i think it was banned as under its name it said Banned instead of member.

I had a gold spammer PM-ing me on the forums.. he gave me a email and a website. Too bad I deleted it though. Was too lazy to report it.
