    Recently, with the removal of the meepshop, there have been many players begging for money. This causes chat to be clogged with semi-useless chat. I believe that a better idea would be to ban begging in shout chat. For players who want to beg for meebles, they could still do it in local or world, but players who did not want to see it could get away from the begging. This would not cause lag, and would not take much staff effort, because it is very quick to kick, mute, or ban a player who is begging in shout. If players want to shout to earn money, shouting that they are looking for jobs would still be legal.

    +1 this would be a great idea to reduce the amount of unnessicary chat. I think a good punishment would be a kick just to warn the player, then if they do it again, maybe a 30 minute tempban.

    We already kick for spam of /pay me meebles. And recently someone got kicked for saying "thank you so and so for meebles." In ANY case where its spam we handle it. I agree that everybody shouldn't beg but we can't literally stop someone for asking for meebles.

    Because its stupid. There isn't any reason why someone can't ask for meebles from another player. I mean if they are spamming the heck out of it we can stop it but other than that I don't see harm in people asking. Yes, this is an economy server but it doesn't mean people should be limited to how they get money. Bob got over 40k the other day for spamming "thanks for meebles" IF a player wants to give someone else money then that is on them and its up to them. Me personally im not going to tell someone they cant ask for meebles that's dumb.

    ^ I think this pretty well describes it. I understand how it can be annoying, especially when ranked players do it, but then we're just kicking for being annoying. -- Where does that link stop? If they cross into violating existing server rules, such as spam, then we'll stop it. Until then, once we begin judging what nonsensical chat we want to kick for, it's going to be a very limited environment indeed.

    This is denied, as there is currently no initiative within staff to make this a rule.
