Allods Online How To Block Spammers

Allods Online How To Block Spammers 1: Identify the in-game name of the spam bot. Those familiar with the chat interface of most MMORPGs can do this easily. If you're having trouble pinning down the spammer's name, which is especially true in Allods because the chat window keeps scrolling, refer to the screenshot.

If you still can't identify the name after several attempts, I suggest you hit the Print Screen button (Prt Scr/SysRq on most modern keyboards), open the Allods Online screenshot folder (usually found in C:\gPotato.com\Allods Online\Personal\Screenshots) and scroll to the last screenshot in the folder, open the file using a image editor (eg. Photoshop or Paint), and zoom in on the screenshot's chat window. Since the screenshot is not moving, it's easier to correctly read the spammer's in-game name.
Allods Online How To Block Spammers 2: Click the Social button on the bottom left portion of your Allods Online interface (highlighted with a red circle in the screenshot) to bring up your character's Friends List. Obviously, we're not about to block our friends so click on the Ignore List tab of the Social window.

Allods Online How To Block Spammers 3: Now that your Social window is showing the Ignore List, click on the Add button to open a new window where you can enter the in-game name of the spammer. Keep in mind that before you click on the Accept button, double check the spelling of the name you've just entered or else the spammer's chat messages won't be blocked.

Allods Online How To Block Spammers 4: Check the chat window to make sure the spammer you're intending to block has indeed been blocked. If you can still read the spammer's messages, go back and redo all the steps.

Hope this simple Allods Online guide has helped improve your gameplay, not to mention your sanity. Stay tuned for more guides!
