WoW - anti-spam

With the new WoW patch, Blizzard introduced a feature to report spamming for gold farming services. Players are already complaining about the largely increasing number of random (raid) group invites. The spam report feature only works with mails and public chat, spam in consensual and private chats can't be reported.

As I said: if you want to prevent gold farming, don't implement the mechanics that support this... „feature“. To kill the Hydra, don't cut of its head, tear out its heart.
