a word of advice for PvE players with Badboy

[Deleted]

With so many RBG goldspammers currently around, it's often hard to see the ACTUAL trade information, and badboy doesn't solve all of them, i've noticed. This is a solution to this problem:

1) go to interface/addons/badboy/badboy.lua;
2) scroll down to the list of 1 point items;
3) under the last one of the top part, add "RBG", WITH the double apostrophes and the comma;
4) save the file.

You have now added RBG to the list of 1 point words. what this means is that every post which has "RBG" in there, will get 1 bonus point. This is enough, combined with the rest of the message, to remove RBG scams from the list while keeping the normal RBGs on there.

Inevitably, this will also trigger some false positives, but we all need to make some sacrifices in the name of progress, don't we?

why do this instead of report them? because there's just TOO MANY of them to realistically report. You'll DC when you report that many in that short a timeframe.

The addon should not be modified, ever, nor should it be recommended.

If you want to filter chat based on words use the dedicated plugin: http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/badboy_ccleaner

I didn't even know that was the purpose of Badboy C-cleaner.

RBG scams ?

I'm all for filtering potential scams/bot messages, but that CCleaner looks more like a curtain is being drawn on your face, making you oblivious to the truth. You do have the option of multiple chat tabs if you don't wanna see some mindless arguing in /1 or /2, but filtering entire messages is wrong.
