This means that the commands can still be spammed repeatedly, but the spatial shout will only show up every 30 seconds. So don't worry about not being able to use your macros, cause I do understand that is the only way you are viable at the moment.

The system will change regardless in the Combat Upgrade, so this is just a fix until we decide how things will work then.

/salute

My spam has not changed. Is there something I'm supposed to do to engage a "spam timer" or is this really not fixed?





It goes live as of December 7th.

finally can get people to stop yelling at us to quit spamming all the time, now it will be just sometimes. I approve for now.

Last night was the first time I didn't do JTL and went on an old fashion great kimo hunt. It was really nice not spaming /formup text all the time.
