Just about the best thing to come out of this patch I think. If they won't/can't actually do something about the spam bots at least they gave people a way to block them ourselves.

I wonder if the individual block lists are forwarded to the GMs... If we are always blocking the same spammers and bots and that information is passed to the GMs, then they can investigate and Canx those accounts. In the end, we could effectively self-police the city streets. Not vigiliante enough for me, but it's a start.
