At least the commoner NPC has been replaced with the quest NPC - no more xp/loot campers.

There should be an option to ignore all NPC spam, unless its directed at you.

*silly* You talking of the "TIP ME" "INV ME TO ENT GRP!" ones?

Actually you can prevent the chat bubbles from npc chat to appear, it's not much but can already help a little bit :/

Maybe you can play with the chat color filters too, automatically putting redundant npc chat into black color or something, to be able to keep 'real chat' more in sight
/think hey, i should try that with the 'TIP ME' 'INV ME' '/yell AFK' '/yell zzZZZzz' NPPC (Non Playing Player Characters) sentences... (i hate those macro only used to avoid getting disconnected while afk... why just not let it disconnect and leave our spatial free? )

Probably far from the best solution one would hope for, but maybe it can help a little bit

Well if they make the environment hostile enough they won't have to worry about doing anything to our profession anymore.

The chat bubbles are not the problem
Its that most of their text is 3 lines long, and if some idiot spams the NPC with doubleclicks, theres no way any real conversation can happen, since everything gets scrolled out of spartial right away.

I can /addignore NPPC spammers, and i can filter text from AFK people, so for them there is already a working mechanism in game to shut them up (for me at least).

Ctrl-O, Chat
Remove the checkbox from "Show chat bubbles for all others" to allow you to mark them individually and then mark all except "show chat bubbles from NPCs"

I think at least it should work

Not tried it yet, but yes, I would say it only stops it over their head
