  1. On IS a lot of Elyos are not in legions, way more as a percentage than I notice on SL. I would think that legions drive siege attendance if they want their name on the fort. At siege times there are a bucket load of people in LFG advertising for instance runs. TL runs seem very popular. Half the time I wouldn't know a siege was on, it's not like LFG gets spammed on IS. I missed the last one earlier today on IS where Elyos took Krotan, I would have attended but didn't notice ads, and can't remember the times.
  2. At the lower levels, eg in the 30s I have trouble with resists and figures that 40 extra MA from the spellbook was worth more to me than the 40 extra MB from the orb.
  3. It's working fine for me. All I did was take the aionfilterline.dat file which I had working before maintenance, compressed it with zip and renamed it to aionfilterline.pak.
  4. The existing filter was from your NCsoft team. It was a plain text file called aionfilterline.dat which you could edit with Notepad on your PC, all it contained was a bunch of words, one per line, or any other characters you wanted to filter out eg. VVVVVV or .C0M etc. that the kinah spammers like to use. What changed last maintenance, is the file aionfilterline.dat is no longer recognized by Aion, it now has to be a zip file renamed to aionfilterline.pak which is nowhere as convenient to work with as the previous aionfilterline.dat plain text file. This small change puts editing the filter in the too hard basket for a lot of players, and it would be nice if it could be put back to the way it was.
  5. I tried that .pak file from github, it doesn't block the WTS and WTB spam in LFG.
  6. Yeah, they have disabled it, god knows why. Perhaps they got death threats from the kinah sellers?
  7. Something is broken after the maintenance update. I knew it was too good to be true, a chat filter that actually worked for a week has been disabled by the NCsoft West. Oh well, I guess it's time to disable channel 3/LFG chat again....sigh...
  8. Once you get the hang of editing the file, all that remains is working out what text to block. There are no hard and fast rules, you basically block the things which annoy you most. A couple of tips, keep a backup of the filter file just in case NCsoft push out an update which overwrites your current version, and you loose the changes you made. Secondly keep your own additions up near the top of the file so they are easy to cut and paste as a chunk into whatever new file NCsoft issue in the future.
  9. I don't think many do because people are complaining about kinah sellers in LFG all the time. I can't see them because I edited the file as soon as they popped up after maintenance. The best additions to the chat filter I have made so far was adding "WTB" and "WTS" it make LFG finally useful again.
  10. Only had to do two edits today, It's been working well. The file you have to edit is called aionfilterline.dat
  11. Nah, they wont let you have a predictable outcome like do X and get a known reward, it has to be a game of chance biased to fail and waste your life.
  12. Good luck Speaking of blocking, why do I have to put up with Chinese kinah seller ads in /3 chat every hour, every NA server day after day for years. Are the Aion devs being paid to leave the spammers alone?
  13. The pay to win gear inequality is an issue, but I think the real problem is the developers are obsessed with gambling, almost everything has to be a game of chance with a high percentage of failures. That's creates a negative vibe, doesn't matter if it's saving enchant stones up for months only to have them fail and you go backwards in enchant level, or the inability to do camps because there is always an opponent with +15 gear waiting to gank you, usually a sin in coward mode. Those failures also make a negative mood. It's happy moods that make people come back for more, not negative moods. Perhaps the devs, and marketing people, need to read up on the differences between cortisol, and dopamine?
