When I type into the advertising queue:


/ct BLAH BLAH BLAH


What comes out is:


You say, "/ct BLAH BLAH BLAH"


instead of:


[Trade] Name says, "BLAH BLAH BLAH"


-- how do i get advertisements in trade channel w/ Mule Trade It!?


If it doesn't work, could someone recomend me another tradebot plugin? I've not used one since ACTrade b4 tod =|

auto spamming the chat channels is generally frowned upon.

I think the chat is filtered intentionally to keep the spam off the global channels.

shucks, is there a DT friendly one then? or how are others getting through the filters then? I see others using the tradebots and being able to spam in Trade channels

the -t- is an etiquette thing... it's on there to allow people to filter the text if they want.


you can put -t- at the end of any of your messages (bot or not) if you really wanted to.


it's just a common practice to place some sort of identifier in any "spam" text so that users may filter it if desired... just as a courtesy.
