Well, to be honest, I'm tired as many other people sure is 'bout the shout and trade channels being constantly spammed with crap like +]][[[SOP 30K[[[ and such.
Since I know most people will just tell "just filter both chats and problem solved", I think that's not the idea. Actually some people do want to trade things without leaving a bot maybe waiting for a PM or w/e, then you go to the city to announce that you wanna trade something and wait for a PM from someone who want to make some business with you. Nowadays that just can't be done, since the trade channel is constantly spammed and is just impossible to follow, leaving apart the fact that most announcement are dumb and useless since when you're looking for something, you usually use the "find store" function to search for what you want.
With this I'm just suggesting to remove the "auto-message" function from the actual bot, since it's only used to spam and, because of the number of bots doing this, makes a chat channel impossible to read nor follow (therefore this function is good for nothing since nobody actually reads the announcements). I know there's a forum to post this kind of petitions, but I prefer to bother normal users to see what they think before making some admin waste their time with, maybe, a stupid petition.
