    "This server powered by WhyDB!" Spamming my chat?!

    Apparently, I posted this in the wrong "General" (wow) section and some members were kind enough to point me to the proper "General" (Emu) section. I repost my original question/irritant here in hopes of a better reception.

    Dear god someone make it stop!
    I have searched the internet and this site over for anyone else reporting this issue, but couldn't find any others, so I am hoping that someone out there has at least some hints for me to try.
    If I right click on the chat tab, go into settings, and uncheck system messages, it does indeed go away. However, I am unable to see my chat commands when I do that. Any work around or add on possibly that may intercept chat spam from system messages while still enabling me to use commands?
    Thanks in advance.

    Under 2 minutes on google You need to step up your google kung-fu!

    From: "...Powered by WhyDB" Issue - AC Web

    Go into HediSQL/Navicat or whatever you're using then go to your world database and remove everything that is in "worldbroadcast".

    Hope it helps
    :wave:

    Seriously? I must have missed it because I searched that forum too, lol. Thanks man
    I think you have to be a member for a while to use search or something, because most of my searches have been unfruitful to say the least. /bow
    (Testing to see if I can rep ya yet too)

    The searching issue on mmowned (returning lackluster results) isn't really your fault, it's issues with how VBulletin does searches. Their search engine really needs a rethink.

    If you want to simply make it stop without anything edited, go to arcemu-optional, At the bottom it has:

    <CommonSchedule AutoBroadCast = "0"
    BroadCastInterval = "10"
    BroadCastTriggerPercentCap = "2"
    BroadCastOrderMode = "0">

    Change : <CommonSchedule AutoBroadCast = "0"

    0=Off
    1=On
    Cheese Cake?

    Hey that is cool too Snailz. I looked in the configs but didn't know what I was actually after...the worldbroadcast. I even started searching through all the stuff in the WhyDB folder but of course came up with nothing helpful. Good to have experienced help to call upon, and therefor grow to (hopefully) become useful myself.
