So THIS is what Disney has to say about ABASSA SPAMMERS.

lostmymarbles, the problem is that that may not be what Disney considers rude/mean behavior. This is why I am very careful with who I report. Disney may easily think you were just reporting for fun, and they will ban you instead.

You misunderstood my main point in my post. Live Chat should be used for people who need technical help with the game.

And I have rarely reported anyone. I don't consider reporting "fun." First off, because I avoided Abassa as if it were a plague-ridden sink-hole and secondly because my idea of playing the game involved actually playing, not hanging out to chat (unless of course it was with my guild... then chat away we did, but on a quiet server).

Some people love that part of the game, the socializing, but you run your risk of running across rude people in that setting who don't know their boundaries. Not everyone there is like that, but you know how it can be. Most of the stuff is just noise.

The only person I ever reported was a guy who made a comment to another player that was without a doubt vulgar...not mildly vulgar... but went so far over the line ... (I'm sorry there's no way to even convey how horrible the statement was). Either way it was meant as a mean-spirited insult and should not have ever been said in open chat. That is when you use the report button. Disney can check the chat. We know they can. So if the reporter is innocent, they should have nothing to worry about.

My point was that we should not to tie up the Live Chat line for complaints. It's meant for people who are having a problem with their account or game and need help.

This has nothing to do with this post, but I looked at your screenshot and I think I know you... You use to be in a guild called "The Guardians"? Gm was Megan Pratt.

Regardless of whether the update fixed it or not...the "ignore" button is there, has been there quite a while, and is fully functional. Just saying.

[Tiberius Fireskull]

Stella, the ignore button only blocks out speech. Emotes and thought bubbles still go through.

[StellaInTheSky]

I see people who spam random speech more than Emotes, which is why I use the ignore button...although it's beyond me why you can't completely ignore someone as you can in other games. (In all honesty I have no issue with the Emote spamming, because while it is annoying I get much more sick of the random nonsense that people spout out in-game than someone over-celebrating...that's just me though.) I was just making the point that the ignore is there for a reason. Anyways, if you want my opinion the original post is irrelevant because complaining about anything on Abassa is kind of like trying to herd chickens. Useless/pointless, you're not getting anywhere, and you're wasting time. There are other servers in the game. It will always be Abassa, and will always be annoying on some level even if they did fix any emote spamming because someone will always be there to be "that guy".
Forgive the venting...needed to get it out. LOL.

Abassa is what it is. Disney promotes this game to young kids and there's minimal structure here and only recently are we getting more re-playable activities like Toon Town has.

And the 'kids' go where they can be seen and shoot the breeze with the others or ask around for a 'bf' or 'gf'.

You just accept that Abassa is the social feeding frenzy and either steer clear, or immerse yourself. I generally stay away, but often there is a need to go there for the sake of a guild mate or for guild business. I can't imagine being there for hours on end, nightly. But, I'm an old salt.

So, bottom line is that its a necessary evil and I'd rather have the younguns and PvPers all in one pile than spread out over all the servers.
