Wasn’t this problem supposed to go away on each own once everyone referred it?

Over half a year later and the spam is not stopping…

Hey, Ramona.

How did things work out between Billy and his new friend Noukie? Is there going to be a shotgun wedding coming up soon?

I just got my acknowledgment mails from CCP nearly a month after reporting these guys. Three weeks after the first few dozen free week spammers uninstalled and two weeks after the second few dozen did the same. Meaning by the time the GMs got around to seeing if these players were spambots, they were long gone.

Remember when I said:

I think I can make a solid argument as to where that weak link can be found.

I had the corp chat minimized all this time and Local window retracted to a bar, I only need to see the number of players, so I don’t see the spam.  
I’m in a corporation now so Corp Chat is clean and I only expand Local if I need to.  
I’m not in EVE to chat, I’m here to blow up and get blown up.  
No need of Chat.  
Problem solved.

PS: Rectification, I’m here to mine and get blown up.

If I do that I waste 2 hours of my playtime everyday. End of my quote.

And not only that, let us flag for spam that type of links. Also emails, people its doing spamlist from official help channels, I report several times this guys and still there spamming in the spanish and english help channels all day long (and maybe others who know). Even rookie help get spam as soon the ISD leave the channel.

The NPC corp channels and every career agent systems local chat have a massive spam.

**Its disgusting.**
