The only ones crying are the spammers because they don’t want to be held accountable for messing up chat. Been playing mmos since EQ, there is a trading system in the game for a reason. It plays into the territory control aspect of the game. Spam and cry all you want, just expect to get reported as most players are fed up with it. Considering the past couple posters have nothing intelligent to say I will assume they are just more spamming dbags 
I think I might report all the ‘LFM Priest run’ etc
I’d rather see what people are selling.

I’m not a seller, I’m a buyer. I happen to enjoy shopping for end game gear on the chat. The ones that are annoying are the ones that put like 20 trash items in the message, stuff that would struggle to sell for less than 10g on the market. Those are probably the ones being called out in the chat. But if you are reporting every single WTS message then you have issues dude.

The fact that you marked this reply as ‘Solution’ says everything anyone needs to know about you and this complaint.
They need to stop quadruple taxing a single crafting/selling chain.
Taxed when you buy raw mats
Taxed when you craft
Taxed when you list the item
Taxed when you sell the item
And you’re really sitting here wondering why people move to private sales?
Right you are. The whole tax thing is beyond the pale. It’s a cupcake made of stupid, frosted with ignorance.
I bet dimes to doughnuts it’s the territory governors whining the loudest about WTS sales … for obvious reasons.

Salt,
Global is seen across the server. What we don’t need is a recruitment channel. If they had a trade channel, I would agree. Till then I’m using global.
Obviously spamming is never ok, but get real. You can just mute spammers.

I wanted to make my reply a bit clearer.
When players sell items, some do one or two and that’s fine. It doesn’t take up alot of the char box. But having a player fill up the allowed 400 characters and spam that WTS message every few minutes … THAT is something that is insane. Our chat box is small already.
That’s why just having a Trade chat is needed. And no, I won’t report anyone for that. I just block them for a time, or as many suggested, mute Global for a time.

Bro… are you a gamer?! I’m sorry I don’t mean to be rude but cmon there’s no need to complain about that… it’s just silly 
Yeah…everyone hates spam, it’s aggravating when some turd spams the same message 5 times but… YOU HAVE THE POWWAA!!!
Just block him/her, tell them to stfu, or ignore it.
Just lost a potential buyer.
They’ll probably figure it out when they realize nobody’s responding… or maybe not
I believe the main issue here is the lack of customization for chat. I find the entire communication system a bit lackluster/uninspired.
I wouldn’t mind:
The ability to create new chat windows with filter controls
Or a trade chat with an anti-spam window of like 3 - 5 seconds
Any spammers selling golden steel/polished marble chests or major trophies over the last day or two was almost certainly a DUPER trying to move their duped product quickly, so if you see these people please investigate and report if you know they are suspicious
it may be not spam as mentioned above but it is certainly against game intended mechanics. trade post is for trading paying fees etc as part of the game. if someone just point in chat selling and for example add at everfall its ok but ppl selling outside game mechanics via dm. as much as i dont care it is against rules intended by developers. so i think there will be changes soon
no its not lol. trade post is trash when you have to pay thousands to list one rare item lmao
by this logic everyone is a duper then including you. innocent to proven guilty.
I understand WTS in chat when there is a super legendary or super rare item. If anything, just to avoid loosing 2 or 3 k in taxes/fee when you sell it. (they really should reduce those…). But what is uber annoying, is people spamming WTS with useless low quality items or ressources…
Always the same people selling an unlimited supply of void ores. Lol
Warframe has a trading channel which also has a cooldown on when you can post again
No, I was discussing people typing every 1-2 minutes about selling specific items which nobody could legitimately acquire in the numbers they were selling them in. These players popped up out of the blue on multiple servers when the furnishing exploit became public over the last day or two.
I had a feeling maybe these people who suddenly appeared and began spamming their listings for clearly duped items (why the trade is disabled in game right now) were the ones causing the OP to have an issues with “spammers”, and so reported the relevant information in case anybody else had noticed a sudden influx of spammers selling these items.
