I have no problems with gold ads (not a lot on my server) but I really can't live anymore with the constantly growing "guild recruitment" spam in /2 channel, as well as "/\nal " and similar irritating moments. Messages of 6-7 lines filled of useless emoticons, "we have a tabard" and so on.
Is there any addon (3.2 compatible) that just filters stuff using a specific criteria (keywords) or anything similar. It's really annoying as hell, reading the trade chan, 90% of the messages are completely off topic and/or useless.
Let me know and ty in advance

Don't use /trade. Under any circumstances. Ever.
I'm sure that's not helpful, but it is also the only solution I have been able to find that legitimately works. It's a sad state of WoW we live in, but there you go.
If I really feel the need to use what would be considered actual trade business I just sit in Dalaran and use general chat. I've always achieved a result and never been reported for any sort of spam or chat channel abuse.

Thanks, that can be useful too. It's a shame it cannot be configured to add more keywords.

Nah, I disagree, completely. Trade channel
IS
useful. You can easily sell/stuff for much better prices than AH and find people LFG/LFM etc. I find it essential, to be honest. General chat (/1) on my server is almost dead and anyway no one trades and/or chats there. I would only like to be able to filter it by keywords. If I can skip messages containing few words I'm done.

It seems that
BadBoy
and
BadBoy_CCleaner
could solve the problem. The author does not provide an option to customize keywords but it's just a matter of opening the .lua file and adding unwanted words... sounds fine enough.

It does get frustrating, especially right around the time school lets out.. on my server, the trade chat rolls so fast there is almost no way to read it

This
I find that putting those that abuse the channel with their kitty macros and crap the most on ignore solves most of those issues
Sure but every single time you login your temporary ignored list (via "report spam") is cleared and it's like starting from scratch. Ignore list is just too short to be used.
It's not a matter of accepting (or not) these behaviors. It's a fact that on my server the trade chan becomes unreadable. Filtering guild/crap spam would solve 90% of the readability issue.

That addon sounds nice, I'm going to check that out.
Well I can say it's simply awesome. I added some more keywords (editing the LUA file manually) and suddenly the trade channel became a quiet place with -unbelievable- trading stuff conversations. Happy hunter of the month.
