GLOBAL CHAT SPOILERS!

I have had to stop looking for partners for the dungeons on global chat and disable it because of people spoiling the movie, it's INSANE some people sit on global for hours just to upset ppl by saying what happens every few minutes, I just want to scream, I shouldn't have to stop playing the game or using global chat because people are getting enjoyment out of this...is there something that can be done about this? Why can't the ones the keep repeating this be punished by maybe disabling their global chat for a period of time? I understand people are going to spoil it but the ones that are making it a full time job are seriously getting under my skin..

    There is nothing that can be done then ... spoilers are a subjective thing. You either like them or not.
    Players are only punished if they post spoilers in the forums.

    The forums you can chose to read, global chat just slaps you in the face with them..

    Use the Find Player feature that is out now, and disable global chat.

    OP, it is ridiculous! An alliance mate was pissed because unlike the forums, the chat just scrolls.

    Do peoples movie expericances axrually get ruined from a spoiler? I realize that we’re all different

    For me- I can still enjoy the heck out of a movie hearing a “spoiler”. It’s never taken anything away from the movie. Watching it for myself I get to see what leads up to said spoiler, or still enjoy the ride even though I know the ending. That sort of makes a movie better, if it can be spoiled and yet you still enjoyed the crud out of it 🤪

    Infinity war is not a who done it type of movie. The movie is mostly based from comics so you will have an idea of what is gonna happen anyway if you read the comics. My point is that spoilers from people in a chat are not going to ruin the movie for you. It was a good movie, go see it anyway. If you are the type of person that gets overly upset about a spoiler than you should try to see the movie right away or learn to read more selectively but as I said, it's not gonna ruin the movie for you just cuz someone told you something about it.

    then what's the difference between in-game and the forum? if spoilers are subjective ingame, they are also subjective here.
    the "you either like them or not" applies in the game and in the forum.

    then why is it that in one of them is a punishable offense but on the other is fine?

    Because is a free chat that can't be controlled. People can say anything there as long as they are not insulting anyone, or promoting something against the ToS (account sharing or fake websites).
    Giving spoilers in that chat is not against the rules. And even if it was, it wouldn't be possible to control it.

    this is WHY you turn of global chat. if you are looking at global chat for whatever reason then save yourself from the span and, now, spoilers and join an ally

    What I'm getting at is..global chat is a must right now to find dungeon partners when your alliance isn't doing them, I shouldn't have to disable anything..and as I pointed out, I saw the movie..im not just referring to me, and when ppl write repeatly what happens, and who died then YES it's a spoiler, so the ppl that dont want it ruined is either forced to disable chat or be forced to run out and see it? There are some times reason ppl can't just run out and see it immediately. I was just trying to vent not start a war over who is right or wrong, but if you can be punished on here then it should be the same for the game as well

    Receiving the spoiler is the lesser factor here. It's no big deal, unless the person has serious problems with spoilers, which isn't normal.
    If you want to find partner for the dungeons in the global chat, then do it. If you don't want to get spoiled, turn off global chat and don't do dungeons with strangers. There is no solution for everything

    Yes I completely agree. Since day 1 I turned off global chat and the game is wonderfully peaceful (minus the guy in my alliance who can't stop obsessing over feet)

    You could also join an alliance and find someone to do dungeons there too. :-)

    Im in a alliance like I said above, none seem to want to do them, not just referring to me, but the thousands of other ppl as well, to me either punish for both forum and game or neither
