The new Auction Channel should keep the level of Spam in Spatial Chat down some.
Which translates to good things for roleplay!
I'm sure that there'll be still a good amount of spam in spatial, but even for the worst offender, it makes sense to have a regular forum where "regular chat" doesn't compete with their "advertisements". More "billboard space" for them basically. And more "RP space" for us.

Until they restrict spamming in spatial (As in, let it be a punishable offense)
I have a feeling people will still macro in spatial and auction channels. Whats better than auctioning in one location? Auctioning in two!
It reminds me of EQ in East Commons. Sure there was a nice bazaar type thing, but even those who had use of it would not only put stuff there, but be spamming about it in EC as well...

True, true. But this is a step in the right direction. And I know there are some players who wouldn't spam at all if they had this tool to use, much less do it in both. It's not a perfect fix, but it will cut some of it down. Nerfed not eliminated.
And perhaps this move indicates an eventual move to punish those who do spam in spatial. Now SOE can say "Hey, wehave given you an avenue for that stuff. Use it or else."
