Hard way to get results is to keep going back one letter to find out how to type his name.

For example

|||||||||||(L or i) then go one more etc.

Otherwise what worked for me if they spammed me; I'd log out and log back in. Seemed to stop it. By the way, wth are they telling you? lol

ummm, why are you pming them???? you know, you block the ALL CHAT way, not the PMs way... you use the unlimited blocks, not the 20 blocks...

Umm, yup like Astra said... or, you can simply ask someone else in game.. problem is that my list has prolly over 100 blocked names, some of them are miss spelled names lol.. I even had anal for a LONG time blocked and always been wondering why is he always silent and quiet lmfao... had to unblock him a few days ago -.-

Name the file the same as it should show in the folder. If it is there, it will ask if you want to replace it. If not, then hopefully the problem is solved. xP

Do what goob said.

Click on their name in chat and it'll pop up in your chat type as:

" $IIIIIIIIIIII: / "

Now move your curser to the first character, delete it, and replace it with a lowercase L = "l". It'll look the same but it will read:

" $lIIIIIIIIIII: / "

Put a letter in the chat like this:

" $lIIIIIIIIIII: asdf "

And press return. Look in the note screen. If there is a note that says "user not found" that means the first character is a cap i "I" and not a lowercase L "l".

If the message did go through, then it means the first character is a lowercase L "l" and not a cap i "I".

Write down the letter that worked. Either the original cap i "I" or the new lowercase L "l".

If the message did not go through, replace the first character with the original cap i "I" again.

If the message did go through, leave it.

Go to the next character and do the same thing so it'll look like this:

" $IlIIIIIIIIII: / " if the first character was an i "I"

and like this:

" $llIIIIIIIIII: / " if the first character was an L "l"

(I know they'll appear the same, but you now know what the first char is).

After doing this 12 times, you will know all the correct letters. Just type what you've written in the block box and you're set.

If it doesn't work, it just means there's another IIIIIIIIIIII online at the time...one who isn't PMing you.

All you need to do is take the name that you've already verified and change the letters to the opposite and find which one goes through.

Our guild was also spammed by PMs like you.

I have 4 combinations in my whisper block:
(reverse the caps for all letters)

1. 6 i's - 1 L - 2 i's - 3 L's
2. 5 i's - 3 L's - 4 i's
3. 4 i's - 4 L's - 1 i - 1L - 1i - 1L
4. 3 i's - 7 L's - 2 i's

I hope it helps.
