it's only by reporting them will they get shut down.

if you get messaged, take the 2 minutes to report it.

While I understand that you disagree with my decision to remove the screenshot, the forum rules are clear on posting screenshots that include names, especially if those screenshots suggest negative behavior/scamming/rule-breaking. You are free to submit complaints including the respective screenshots at support.guildwars.com. Only Anet is able to verify screenshots by means of server logs and take appropriate action.

Hmm... I hadn't seen them advertising at all reccently. I guess they are remaking their marketing strategy my mass PMing people. Less likely to get reported then just talking in system chat I suppose. Those clever jerks.

Also, haven't gotten any PMs, so meh.

I have gotten 4 PMs so far, all on the same character (Triage Nurse) and all by different character names.

I hate it. I yell at them to GO AWAY! and then report... but I doubt that shuts them down.

MAKE IT STOP, PLEASE! is there a no-call list for GW telemarketing that I can sign up for??

Yah i keep getting em. then you get some lvl 5's getting run to granite and grotto. buying 15k armour it kinda defeats the point. u can buy like 10,000k of em. i hate it. lol also the adviteriers they normaly hang around in Tomb Of Premeil King.

I've seen a level 3 buying 15k armor. Just sickening. Here I was, working toward my 15k armor, fighting the whole way there, salvaging my own crafting material, earning my own gold (sure, a few lucky drops, but I still earned it!)... feeling all pretty and sparkly... *sigh*

It's a good thing 15k armor looks so good, otherwise I'd boycott.

The odd thing is that I never got one virgoods PM ad til I quested with a smite monk in the desert who was rather... immature and rude. She ended up leaving in the middle of quest (gee, darn). Coincidence?

There is a nice thing against it. Look in for Friends (standard under N) fill the persons name in under Ignore. Thats solves a lot of those problems. Most of the whispers come from 2 or 3 accounts. I have only 2 ignores of Virgoods in my list and im not reciving any pm's any more
